Tile layout
In my no tube small bathroom I have 32 inches from one wall to the
other wall and I have 12 inch ceramic tiles that I want to put on the floor. I assume I need to put the 12 inch tile in the center and cut the other 2 so I have 10 inch tile on both sides of the center tile. The floor tiling would be set up like this from the front of the bathroom to the back: Front of bathroom - 10 inch tile - 12 inch tile - 10 inch tile - Back of bathroom Or do I do it this way: Front of bathroom - 12 inch tile - 12 inch tile - 8 inch tile - Back of bathroom |

Chances are they're 12.25" including the spacing lugs on each side. If they have no lugs, you still have to plan for the grout space. Putting such large tile in such a small bathroom is a matter of taste. It will make the room look smaller, if you GAS, as opposed to "traditional" 1" floor tile. The floor tiling would be set up like this from the front of the bathroom to the back: Front of bathroom - 10 inch tile - 12 inch tile - 10 inch tile - Back of bathroom Or do I do it this way: Front of bathroom - 12 inch tile - 12 inch tile - 8 inch tile - Back of bathroom Start with whole tiles on the most visible walls (most likely the entry and on the side opposite the door hinge) and hide the cuts in the back. It will be extremely helpful if those two most visible walls are 90° square. I'd also advise considering removing the toilet rather than cutting around it. ----- - gpsman |

The original tile I took out was around 7"" |

The adjoining hallway next to bathroom is light carpeting and level to
the bathroom. The concrete I am laying it on it firm with no holes or any bumps. |
