Q: When should you not use large tiles?

• <div><p>There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they&rsquo;re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn&rsquo;t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn&rsquo;t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.</p></div>

Q: What size tile is easiest to install?

• <div><p>The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they&rsquo;re easier to install than small tiles&mdash;the job is faster and simpler when there&rsquo;s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they&rsquo;re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.</p></div>

Q: What is the lowest maintenance shower floor tile?

• <div><p>There are several low-maintenance shower floor tiles to consider for your bathroom. Stone tiles are easy to keep clean and only need an occasional resealing to keep them looking their best. Porcelain is another low-maintenance choice, as it doesn&rsquo;t stain easily. Vinyl is also suitable for easy upkeep. On the other hand, one of the highest maintenance options for bathrooms is wood tile.</p></div>

Q: Should tile touch the tub?

• <div><p>Tile shouldn&rsquo;t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it&rsquo;s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/your-shower-tile-really-waterproof.htm">tile shower waterproofing</a>.</p></div>

Q: What is the best adhesive for ceramic tile on concrete?

• <div><p>Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.</p></div>

"Hatch Flooring did a FANTASTIC job, replacing an old tub with a tile shower with natural rock floor, as well as rock walls around the toilet, and splashback in the bathroom as well as kitchen. Ammon was great to work with on getting everything lined up, and Jared did an AMAZING job with the tile and rock, accommodating some unusual requests of ours of having natural rock edges. I would recommend Hatch Flooring to anyone. (Two years ago, we also had them carpet the entire house and tile a hearth around our woodstove - a great job on those projects, too!)"
