Mosaic border to finish half wall

[robbieraven]

Got a customer with one full wall with mosaic border running through, however on some of the side walls the mosaics form the top of the half wall, what's the best way to finish this off, can't image trim on top of mosaics?

Any bright ideas? :santa_wink:

How thick are the mosaic and what are they....glass stone etc

Glass, thanks Whitebeam, off a sheet. Unfortunately slightly shy of the tile thickness just to make things slightly more complicated. Never finished a half wall with a Mosaic row I have to be honest.

Trim deffo won't work. Just grout it. I'm sure the wall above will be painted. So, the top of the mosaics could be painted too.

Just seen that the mosaics are glass. Just grout it. It will look fine.

As all above, grout on the edges will be just fine. Here is one if my glass mosaic jobs finished on the edges with just being grouted

just done 6 high class new builds and all en-suites were tiled to ceiling in shower area and finished to top of mosaic round the rest of the room, sq edge stainless trim all the way round and down sides of shower for those looked nice, easy mitres too...backer sheets of mosaic mesh should sort the difference in tile depth and make easier to fix

God only knows!!! I suggested it, but they weren't interested! Ho hum

In my opinion it looks better to finish the edge of the mosaic with a square trim.
Easier to wipe clean and stops ingress into side of tile.
