Size of Tiles Query and best solution
Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2011 10:32 am
My bathroom is half tiled. Bath has four tiles in height and border around full area.
I was intending to extend to ceiling and went out and purchased what I thought were standard tiles 200x250.
On setting them out dry, I discover that although the new tiles are 200x250 the old tiles are more like 197x250.
Is this an old size and can such things still be bought. If not, could I get away without placing spacers?
Or, should I attempt to strip existing off platerboard walls, is it as much bother as it seems?
Any other solutions?
Thank You.
