Tile trim question - Tile Advice

[Sarah Wallace]

Hi- I have just had my kitchen tiled with Metro tiles. I bought the trim requested by the fitter- but it looks odd and I’m not sure how I can change it.

Its common with bevelled tiles , you have to use a trim deep enough for the thickness of the middle of the tile. The bevelled section ( edge ) is thinner than the middle.

Thankyou. Can I do anything to improve the look?

It’s amplified more because of the dark grout. You could try slightly raking grout back at the edges but there’s a risk of trim damage.

What size did said tiler ask you to get?

generally, metros need 8mm trim

Not to much you can do now I am afraid it should of been 8mm trim as the others have stated dark grout always make it look worse .
