tile trim
Quarry tile is a building material, usually 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 inch (13 to 19 mm) thick, made by either the extrusion process or more commonly by press forming and firing natural clay or shales. Quarry tile is manufactured from clay in a manner similar to bricks. It is shaped from clay, and fired at a high temperature, ~2,000 F°.
Hi I have two questions.
First question. My bath is only 700 wide & im only going to tile to the edge of the bath. I have a glass shower screen which I was going to put in after & set it about a 10-15mmm in from the edge. So I’m going to be left with about 10/15mm of tile showing just past the...
Hi all,
Is it possible to remove the plastic trim from the edge of tiling. I want to tile higher up the wall. See sceenshot attached.
Also, is it a must to remove, or could I just grout over it somehow?
Thanks
Hi, new to forum and after some advice after a professional install. Just had kitchen splashbacks tiled and the finish of the corners on the edge trim is really bothering me. I've spent a lot of money on the kitchen and this is bothering me to the point where I'd be willing to rip all the...
Hi everyone
Looking soon at retiling a shower enclosure walls at a local leisure centre. Once the old tiles have been removed I will be fixing XPS boards to the masonry wall(10mm) and 9mm porcelain tiles. I will a couple of edges that will end in exposed board and tile.
Would you install 20mm+...
So, I've tiled most of the wall in my downstairs WC and am left with a narrow floor to ceiling strip at each end of about 25mm (see pic)
The majority of this gap will have the flat section of the tile trim so what should I use to stick the tile strips with?
I'm assuming the standard tile...
My parent's shower tile was installed using Schluter trim, but it is Mexican tile and would look better with tile trim. Is it possible to install tile trim over the Schluter somehow? The highest priority is adding tile to the outside of the pony wall as shown in the photos, but we would like to...
Hi, we have bought the nickel finish box shape stainless steel trim (link below) we have tried to cut it with an angle grinder and a saw, the heat of the angle grinder is ruining the finish and the saw isn’t giving us the clean finish we are looking for, we need to cut 45 degree angles, is this...
I'm currently dealing with the contractor from hell who has ruined job after job in my house. The latest installment is the bathroom tiles. The tiler came in and threw the tiles on the wall and floor; no spacers used, different space between every single tile, rough adhesive, squint tiles and...
Hi all,
Have a question about how/when best to install tile trim - probably quite basic!
One of my walls has a 5 inch recess, and the wall will be tiled up to a height of 1.3m. The recess means I have an external corner to deal with and I want to install the tile trim across the top of the...
Morning all,
I like the finish of the window reveal of the attached. My question is, how do you finish the top of the tile trim? Is it a case of a dab of silicone or something to finish off the exposed edge?
Many thanks
Hi all

I've phoned around a few of their stockist in the UK and they all say it has to be ordered specially from Germany which they can't do for a small order. I only need 2 x...
ahouls there be a lip on the tile trim or it be flush - a 12mm trim has been used here leaving a lip when perhaps a 10mm should have been used instead?
Kitchen tiling around the window - (first time using tile trim) I have cut the tiles and done my best to make the cuts neat and even - but as you can see from the pics the gap is uneven. Can I make this neat / cover with grout or silicone? Or do the cuts need to be re done?? Any advice...
Hi
In the process of getting bathroom done and came home to this…see photos.
I am used the the tile trim facing the room, like a frame, but tiler has done it this way facing in towards the recess.
It doesn’t look right to me and looking online can’t see anything else like this!
Is this even...
Is this acceptable tile trim job. How should it be done. Can it be ripped out easily and redone. Any advice welcome. Also is this grouting an acceptable standard. What's your tiling question? Pictures can be added.
Hi all.
It's been a while since I have completed any tiling and will be doing some basin splashbacks with 9mm thick 600 x 300 porcelain tiles.
I will be running a trim around the whole of the outside of the tile Schluter Jolly- A 110 TSBG – Natural Beige Grey.
I want the trim to be flush...
Hi all, first post here so be gentle!
I tiled behind a sink unit a couple of years ago and used Homelux Kitchen Corner Cove 6mm at the joint between the sink unit and the tiles. The job has turned out well as I did not want to use silicone sealant at the join.
I am now wanting to tile above...
Ok I am fitting the tile trim L shaped aluminium profile around the window, Dave you are right, no grout gap against the tile looks better. I did put a bit of coloured silicone between just to seal the gap and it looks good, But do I have a grout gap in the reveal up against the tile trim ? I...
Hi there, I hope someone can help me. I’ve just tiled my kitchen, and need to trim the tiles with some chrome upvc angle bar (I tiled over the original tiles so couldn’t use ordinary tile trim). The two way mitres at the corners have worked out fine, but I’m not happy with the three way mitres...
