    Trim with stone

    I broke a golden rule today and put some chrome trim with some travertine mosaics, it just didn't look right without as the main tile was ceramic.

    Corner trim

    Looking for an external corner trim that overlaps edges of both tiles rather than having one tile butting up to it. Can anyone recommend anything, preferably white, but could live with chrome or silver?

    Pricing tile trim.

    Do any of you price tile trim as an extra. Started to do some contract work and some of it has a lot of trim around boxing. Would you charge by the metre,the cut or just price work for time taken? Any advice as always appreciated.
