    Damaged Trim

    Tile Edge Trim

    I just cannot get my head around tile edge trim,having never used it. From what I have read you match trim to tile thickness.

    Fitting Metal Edge Trim/tiles Around Window Recess

    Is there a technique for doing this with metal edge trim? Eg, is it best to tile the whole face of the wall, with all of the 4 window sides cut straight and square, being raised proud by a set distance to allow for the trim/adhesive and inner tiles to meet up squarely when fitted later? If so...

A professional tiler has just tiled my kitchen but around the window ledge (where vertical wall and flat ledge meet) he did not use trim. The edges of the tiles are exposed. It's no doubt a matter of taste but to me it doesn't look...
