You'll find tile adhesive can get everywhere. So it's a good idea to protect your surfaces, such as worktop and sink. Then continued laying the rest in a straight line as above. However, note I didn't go to the very end of the far left as I knew I needed to add trim behind it. Then, after transferring your measurement to the tile, line the mark to the top of the tile cutter. And, starting from the bottom, gently push the handle down while moving forward to score the tile. And once you've got to the top, make sure the metal pressure piece is resting on the top edge of the tile. Then gently push down the handle until is cuts in half.

So where possible, why not two of you work on it at the same time? *Note I work alone as there's less arguments(!) SPREADING TILE ADHESIVE

I place a bit of masking tape or rag around my surface, but DON'T masking tape too close. This is solely to catch drips. Then I apply a bead of silicone, My best advice is try to be consistent - not too much, not too little. Now spray the silicone with watered down washing up liquid and smooth run along it with the corner of a credit card. In fact, I wish I'd done this behind my hob two years ago.

Speaking from experience, it's far too easy to chip a tile, which you'll then need to replace. HOW DO I MIX GROUT?

However, because I had a corner joint on my worktop that protrudes ever so slightly, I opted for spacers along the bottom.
