Hi All

I want some advice on tiling corners.

I dont much like the use of the plastic corners especially on a bath hob where as I have a three way corner and the plastic has to be trimmed and filled with grout or silicon.

Then there is the old way where the edge was filled with grout to cover up the colour of the ceramic tile under the glaze but after a while this fell out.

As I have got the use of a cheap electric tile cutter is the best way to chamfer each tile where it joins at 45 degrees and then grout the small gap.

What do the pro's do?

thanks

If you have a tile saw that can bevel then yes that is one way of doing it.

Cheers

I don't know if you can still buy them but when i did my bathroom I bought tile that had a 45 degree edge on one side.
