Uneven ceiling - TilersForums.com

Hello all,

What's the typical procedure for tiling up to an uneven ceiling? Is it just tile as far as you can with an even line of tiles and then fill in the rest with grout?

Leveling/re-plastering the ceiling is not an option unfortunately.

But couldn't this leave me with a row of tiles of differing height? Would a level tile height not be the preferred way to go?

IMO No.. it would leave a wide grout line and would look crap.. and could crack as well.. Scribe to ceiling and caulk it..

The gaps between tile and ceiling would look awful

I'd agree too as that is the way the original tiles have been put up. Just wanted to make sure what was the right course of action. Cheers lads.
