I'm ready to install 4x4 tile for my backsplash in the kitchen. It is approx 11 feet wall to wall, 18" high, and has a stove on the same wall. My question is where would be the best place to start? I'm thinking find the midpoint of the wall, then test out the tile to see if I end up with equal cuts on each end and adjust if necessary, right? Also, I wanted to start with full tiles on the bottom granite countertop, and butt them up against the bottom of the wall cabinets, whether they end up as full tiles or not does not matter since you can't really notice them. Is this right? And I'm assuming i run the full 18" tile behind the stove, right?
