Thanks in advance for any help and advice you can give! Am tiling my kitchen, but have just discovered that the work surface on one side of the cooker we have is slightly lower than the run of worktop on the other side of the cooker (was fitted by a family member who is a qualified joiner and works for the council...!!)
So am wondering what your advice would be to compensate for this height difference without leaving a big gap between the bottom tile and worktop over the lower portion..? The height difference is about 8mm either side of the cooker, but both stretches of worktop are level in themselves, just at different heights (if that makes any sense...) Would you believe I've never ever noticed it in the 5 years I've lived in the house?
Is it acceptable/would it be noticeable to tile on a slight slant to compensate for the height change (the whole run of worktop and cooker is about 2.5 metres in length) or should I try to make up some or all of the height difference by increasing the gap between the tiles ever so slightly as it progresses along the wall?
Any advice would be much appreciated as to perhaps how you good people have overcome a similar situation.
Thanks,
Andrew
