Mitred details

Concealed-cistern boxing in large-format porcelain, joints lined up with the wall.
Step tiled up and mitred against a clean-cut wall.
Porcelain stair treads with mitred nosings, bonded before fixing.
Curves
Radius walls and curved edges, tiled to the line.
Radius wall rendered to take strips cut from large-format offcuts, mid-way through.
Radius wall in strips cut from the floor's large-format offcuts.
Ceiling in decorative mosaic.
Tile scribed to the curve of the bath.
Small format
Metro, mosaic and handmade tile set to one grid, reveals and ceilings included.
Window reveals in metro tile, mitred at the corners, joints carried round.
Curved wall in handmade zellige, each tile set by hand with different spacers so the joints still read as one grid.
Preparation
Before a tile goes on, the wall or floor is checked against tolerance.
Where it falls outside, it is brought back with levelling compounds, walls and floors alike. Under mosaic this happens most often after waterproofing: joint and corner tape is thick enough to show through, and the smaller the tile, the more every ridge shows.
Wall rendered for mosaic and checked under raking light. At this angle even a 0.5 mm ridge throws a clear shadow; here the light carries across the whole wall with no dark patches, so the surface is within tolerance.
Bathrooms
Most of this tiling is part of complete bathrooms. See the finished rooms.
