    Spacer and adhesive

    Nearly there ... sorry for all of the banal questions. .... two more though! 1) I’m using a 250x400x7mm glossy tile. Do I use a 2mm or 3mm spacer? It’s a small en-suite room. 2) will this adhesive be ok? (see pic). The instructions say it’s good for 300x600 but I know that larger tiles may...

    tile spacers for my new tiles

    Hello everyone, I am thinking of re-doing the tiles my living room. I've got 600x300 tiles and I'd like to know if it's acceptable to use 4mm tile spacers.

    Wickes spacer accuracy

The 1mm spacer measured 1.72mm and 2mm spacer measured 2.42mm, so if you want a 2mm 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...

    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...
