Matching Wall Floor Grout Lines

Granted my method requires you to purchase twice the amount of grout but may give you the most favorable results.

Matching wall floor grout lines.

The centres of your tiles wall and floor need to be exactly the same so if the tiles are exactly the same size you have to use the same size spacers for wall and floor. Having matching wall and floor tiles can also inhibit your choices if you re on a budget. Setting out to follow the wall grout lines end up leaving three 25mm slivers along the long side of the shower tray it works fine everywhere else. This was due to the shadowing between each tile a cushion edge tile crates the grout joint in turn would be wider which would make each tile more pronounced.

If your room is off square you might find the lines creeping off but should be ok in a bathrooom. An interesting take on matching floor and wall tiles is to match the color and style but use different sizes. Alternatively i can shift the floor half a tile over to kind of brick bond the wall floor. The easiest way to match an odd grout is to mix two colors together and experiment.

My vision was for all the grout lines to match up but my tiler pointed out the grout has to be 3mm on the floor and that much grout on the wall will look too much. Installing the large tiles on the floor and continuing up the walls with the smaller tiles creates a unified monochromatic look but it s broken up for greater visual interest. If you are opting for a lighter tile on the floor then try darker grout lines as an easy clean option. In smaller rooms opting for larger floor tiles with less grout lines will reduce visual chopping and create the illusion of a space so why not create both differentiation and similarity at the same time by tiling the wall with a smaller scaled version of your floor tiles.

Back in the day when most tiles had cushion edges matching the grout lines between floor and wall tiles was a must. The floor tiles will only stack up the wall about half way and then there will be subway tiles laid in a brick pattern to the ceiling. To match grout lines or not to match grout lines is one of the most common questions a client will ask. Hi i know how you feel.

Using the same tiles wall and floor 450x450 rectified porcelain. Adding so called universal colorants is very iffy and i would avoid it. I was hoping to follow the grout lines through the floor and up the walls.
