Hi all,
First time tiling my bathroom floor and wall so have been doing a lot of research to try and do it correctly first time! What I am hoping to do is to align the wall and floor tiles (i.e. line up the grout gaps). However, from what I understand the grout gap on the floor is typically 3-4mm where as the wall tile grout gap is typically 2mm. Surely its not possible to align wall and floor tiles with different grout gaps? To add to my confusion I have also noticed that the floor tile on average is about 1-2mm wider than that of the wall tile. Is this usual? Some particulars, from the box label, are:
Ceramic Floor Tile (approximately) 333mmx333mm
Ceramice Wall Tile 333mmx250mm
The are from the same company and are supposed to be a matching combination.
Is it generally considered "best practise" to align wall and floor tile grout gaps? If grout gaps need to be the same is it possible to use a 2mm grout gap on the floor tiles.
Thanks very much for any help with this.
