Hi,
I've got a bathroom to tile and the Mrs. has picked out the ones she wants. I'm going to be getting someone in to do the job and paying so it's not really a DIY question I suppose. *ashamed*
We are having two lines of black(ish) tiles going down the wall and the rest of them a white(ish) colour. The black tiles are around 10mm shorter in width/height than the white ones, because it's a vertical column of the mismatched tiles the width doesn't really matter but the height, I think, is going to be a problem. I'm being told by my uncle that it's impossible to get it to work because the grout lines wont line up and it'll get progressively worse the further it goes up the wall.
I want a second opinion and need to know is if we should pick a different "feature" tile that matches the height of the "regular" tiles or if it's possible for a professional tiler to do something magical with the grouting, or whatever, so that the height difference isn't noticeable.
I'm a total novice so sorry if this question isn't detailed enough.
