[QUOTE="JimmE, post: 957870, member: 53000"] I’m just planning specifics for tiling our kitchen. We have a stainless splash back behind our hob which we intend to keep, but want to tile the rest of the way around the kitchen between the underside of the cupboards and the upstand from the worktop. I would normally plan to set out by starting from the middle - but in this case as there is already a stainless splashback in place I’m a little unsure what would look best. 1. Pretend splashback is not there - plan from the middle of the wall and cut out around splashback as required. 2. Treat the left and right side of the splashback as two separate areas, and set out from the centre of each, between the splashback and the corners 3. Start with a whole tile from the edge of the splashback and run to the edge of the wall. I’m pretty sure options 1 or 2 make most sense, just unsure which might look best. Any thoughts? Will be putting in 10x30cm tiles in a brick bond pattern, if that makes any difference. [ATTACH alt="image.jpg"]110183[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
