Tile Trim External Corner

[Bobbya82]

Hi

Just after a bit of advice with tile trim, have an external corner to do as per the attached photo

How is it normally done/ preferred way of doing to? bed all the trim onto the wall first, making sure it’s level and leaving it overhanging a bit to allow for the other tile going in the other direction?

Or just bed each part of the trim when you fix each tile?

Many thanks all.

Depends what you want. Schlüter-FINEC is nice but you need miters.

This is the trim I am using https://www.toppstiles.co.uk/fixing...oduct_colour=Silver&selection.trim_depth=10mm

That corner looks a bit odd- you've got (far as I can tell) a big timber gap between the plasterboard and the tile backer?
Are you tiling both sides of the corner?

Sorry what do you mean, a big timber gap?

Thanks

You've got backer board screwed to a vertical timber- looks like timber anyway -making the corner. Then there's a bit of pb fixed to the timber? Not flush anyway...
Might be easier to read if you took the pic a bit further away....

Had to do it that way as wanted NMP on the bit towards the wall as it’s only 6mm instead of 12 for the aquapanel, have a extractor at the top of the wall so didn’t want to block it. NMP is a pain to cut as well compared to aqualpanel.

Almost done now with the trim, thanks anyway though.

Thanks
