Filling a perimeter gap around floor tiles

[blackbirdxx]

After some drylining was removed from the walls in a very small room of the house, a large gap remains around the tiled floor area. This perimeter gap ranges from 15 to 30mm between the tiles and walls. I appreciate that some sort of expansion gap must remain but what should I fill this gap with, any ideas??
Many thanks in advance....

skirting board.

You can space it off the wall with wooden battens if you like.

Thx, but I wasn't wanting to put any dry lining back but planning to skim and decorate the masonry walls. Just to be clear, this was a w/c in my lean-to which I'm planning to make into a kitchen larder.

Do the walls not reach the floor?

No, 30mm horizontal gap between walls and tiled floor.

The tiles are black, is there something out of a tube I can use or are there any other ideas??

Even less clear now, you have a masonry wall that doesn’t touch the floor ?

Thanks for the suggestion but the gap varies a bit in width so this tile solution may be a problem.

Buy a tile cutter

Hi,
Thanks, I'm thinking that skirting with some scotia to hide the gap will be the easiest and neatest solution.
