Brick bond tiling of kitchen window - TilersForums.com

[Matt0029]

When tiling a window reveal in a kitchen with brick bond tiles I am struggling to set out the window as 2 tiles leaves around a 15mm gap towards the window. Can anyone think of a way over this? Thanks. Should the grout line with the tiles on the window base line up with the grout line of the window up stand. Hope that makes sense. Thanks!

Should the grout lines from the sill marry up with the verticals of the reveal? Which would mean cutting the first tile on the sill up to the trim. Or full tiles on the sill may look better? But leave me with a gap towards the window of 15 to 20mm

Sorry the gap at the back would be 25mm

What colour grout are you having?

Can't you go half tile at the front edge against the trim, then full tile, then half tile at the back?

2 solutions - use pvc beading to cover the gap or have full tile as middle course and cuts in first and last row.
