TILE LAYOUT FOR BACKSPLASHES & SHOWER WALLS
Then move
centerline
1/2 tile width
If less than
1/2 tile
space at wall
Mark centerlines of the wall. To determine tile placement and cuts, lay it out
on the floor first, placing a row of tiles along
each line using spacers. Then replicate the
measurements on the wall.
If the space at the wall end is less than 1/2 tile,
shift centerline to eliminate small cuts. This will
allow wide, even tiles at both edges.
TILE LAYOUT FOR COUNTERTOPS
For L-shaped countertops, lay full tiles at
inside corner. Set bull nose or v-cap pieces in
place to ensure correct amount of overhang-
ing pieces.
Begin layout by positioning the front edge
tiles bull nose or v-cap along the front of the
countertop.
Do a dry run by placing as many full tiles on
the countertop with spacers as necessary. If
countertop abuts a wall, lay cut tiles against
the wall.
For straight countertops, mark centerline of
countertop or sink, then lay tiles so cut pieces
beside sink are the same width. Avoid less
than half-width cut tiles by shifting the layout
1/2 tile left or right.
