Im gonna be tiling round a window and ive bought that plastic trim that has a bevel on it and then about an inch flat piece with holes in it. Whats the best way of putting this stuff in position, im not a 100% confidant in using it. I mean were do you start, what would be the best place to start tiling, the inner part leading to the window or the outer part or the top part.

I find by fixing the first tile in on the trim row and fixing the last tile in you can insert the trim and work along the line tweaking it as you tile.
 
Thanks for the tip, how do you mean the trim row. It also helps if you buy the right size tile trim. Wish i had :oops:
 
He means the row that requires the trim fitting to it.
I tile first then slip the trim in behind the tiles. Don't suppose it matters though.
