You got any pics? Sounds like centering the sink is a good idea if it's in the middle, just find a nice balance across the whole wall with no sliver cuts.

Depends on size of tile too, but would normally centre on wall.

no pics m8 wouldnt know how to get them on here anyhow lol,a guarantee if a centered the wall ad end up in trouble when i hit the sink etc,think al just centre the sink as thats in the middle, see how it looks cheers!

stewart a would centre the wall but the sanitry is staying put,think that would cause probs



I'd centre the wall providing the cuts work out for the edge of the bath. The basin and bog can be eased forward so that the tiles will sit behind them so no worries, IMO.

center wall, and as daz says ease the basin and pan from the wall and go behind them, be carefull with the toilet you need to pull the whole toilet forward, dont try and just force the cistern forward or it will leak..

ok guys cheers al centre the wall and and try ease the tiles behind thanx!



I lost my post on this yesterday and was too tired to try and remember what I'd typed!
Today - although the census of opinions is to centre the wall, if there is to be a mirror in front of the basin and this becomes a focal point of the wall, then I'd go for either a joint or full tile centred on the basin.
However I'd also have the basin and wc. moved off the wall for ease in tiling and practical access to the cistern lid.
