    Hi, what size tile spacers should I use? I am putting some tiles in an enclosure, I read some where 3 or 4mm would be best as easier to grout. I will be using different tiles on the rest of the walls, should I use the same size spacers so grout lines are similar? Also for the floor tiles what...

    Setting Out Setting out to tile a splashback

    As the title. I have my daughters kitchen splashback to tile. In the examples Ive seen the worktops seem to be taken as level and full tiles (metro) form the bottom layer.

    Rubi Tile spacers, any advise?

    Anyone leaving them in? I know they can cause tension, grout color fading and can attract mold. But are these any better? They support tension and also allows grouting over, or should they be removed?

    Useful spacer bucket holder.

    I bought one of these recently, for the princely sum of £1.42 Listed for iphone screens, I thought it might hold your spacer bucket, stick it to the tiles just placed. For some reason I cannot log in to tapatalk, or I'd post some pics. It worked well. As a test I left my bucket hanging on it...

    NOT a metro splashback.

    This is a kitchen splashback that Gary did with me in Hoxton East London. 2400 X 800 x 6mm porcelain from the casadolcecasa magnum range, Calacatta. No joints except for the corners, definitely something that could catch on I believe.
