This was my first major tile project.

Material
Porcelain 13"x13" Floor Tile
2"x4" Marble Wall Tile
1/2"x1/2" Wall Trim Tile
Mapei Ultraflex 2 Mortar

I used 1/4" spacers for the grout lines and 1/16" for the wall tile.

This was a complete renovation project for the Main Floor Men's & Women's washroom. If I can find before photos, I will post them. There was originally Wall Paper and Vinyl Tile on the floor, old toilet partitions and really old vanities/countertops. Wall paper was removed for Wall Tile and all Vinyl Tile was removed before installing the Floor Tile. Once all wall tile was installed, 3 coats of sealer was applied.

Sorry don't have any "in process" photos.
