Tile Sizing Guide

Small (1"-4"): Mosaic, backsplashes
High waste factor, complex installation
Medium (6"-12"): Standard floors/walls
Balanced waste factor, easy installation
Large (16"+): Modern floors
Low waste factor, requires flat substrate

Grout Selection

Sanded: Joints 1/8" and wider
Prevents shrinkage, more durable
Unsanded: Joints under 1/8"
Smoother finish, less abrasive
Epoxy: High-traffic areas
Stain-resistant, expensive

Installation Tips

Substrate Prep: Clean, flat, dry surface
Critical for successful installation
Layout Planning: Dry-fit tiles first
Avoid small cuts at edges
