See where I'm going? If you want them to cut your tile, you want to dry set your tile first. Lowe's will cut tile, but it can be a bear measuring then driving to the store, measuring again, then driving to the store. What you want to avoid are less than half tile cuts along each wall. Personally, 6圆 would look better with 1/8" spacers on the floor, 3/16" will show quite a bit of grout for that tile size.Īs far as positioning the tile, you can go with either a full tile centered on the door, or the grout line centered on the door. Nothing wrong with taking a tape measure into the store or borrow one of theirs. You can usually tell the recommended spacing by how "short" the tiles are from there printed size. Since I am not starting in center of room, but along tub. Will this look odd to have a border of 2 inch tile, full tiles, then 3/4 of tile in doorway? Sorry, but so many questions. When you look into room you see 5 feet of tub straight ahead. May just have Lowe's do the few cuts I need. Also, should I buy nippers for around toilet flange? If so, what kind? Am using porcelain, and only have an$88 wet saw. First ten tiles are free and 25 cents each additional tile. Also, does everyone know Lowe's cuts tile if you purchase it there. If not, I could add a shoe molding to baseboard. The baseboard should just cover the edge of tile at the 2 walls.

If my calculations are correct, only cutting will be at wall where door is and around toilet flange. Would this be ok? I thought I read to have a full tile in doorway. I plan on using a decorative border tile along tub, depending on depth of border, I will end up with about 3/4 of a tile(4 inches) of tile in doorway. This is with starting tiles in center of room, width wise. So if tiles are 5 3/4 and I use 3/16 spacers, I calculated no cutting of tiles on 2 walls and along tub. Is this standard spacing for these? Room is 60 " wide. Does that mean 6 x 6 are 5 3/4? Also, I have 1/4 inch spacers, but I would like to use 3/16" inch for the 6 x 6. I know the 12 inch tiles I installed are not exactly 12 inches.
