I'm about to tile one course of largish (200x300mm) above worktop upstands in the kitchen.
The worktop,upstands and tiles are all gloss black granite effect.
Where upstands meet worktop I've used black mastic to seal the joint.
I will be using black edge strips to finish the upper and front edges of the tiles.(the upstands and tiles are returning from the back of worktop across the 600mm width)
My question is what is best way to deal with where tiles meet upstand?
Should I sit tiles right on top of upstand or space with tile spacers?
Should I grout (which will be white grout) the join, or just grout between tiles and black mastic where tiles meet upstand?
