Have been advised by one tiler that the flooring in our new commercial venture will require expansion strips on the tiled floor we are proposing. The area is approximately 100 square metres, around 15 long x 5.5 wide. My query is are the expansion joints really necessary as I can't imaging that the tiles actually expand and contract that much, he claims we'll need one every 8 metres? Can anyone point me in the direction of a couple of photographs on the net so we can see if they look unsightly or not.
Additionally we've had one quote which I couldn't quite believe, what would be a sensible rate per metre squared for a pro tiler.
