Fitting Tiles at an Edge

Cutting Tiles at an Edge

You are unlikely to be able to fit whole tiles around the edges of the floor area, and will have to cut them to fit.

  1. When you have fitted all the whole tiles possible, lay a loose tile directly on top of one of the last whole tiles at an edge.
  2. Lay another whole tile on top of this one, and slide it towards the wall until it touches the edge.
  3. Mark along the line where the top tile overlaps the loose tile underneath it, then cut this middle tile along the line. The cut-off section will fit into the edge.
  4. Cut the tiles along a straight edge with a craft knife held upright.
