I'm not sure I understand your question. If you're using the same size and type of tile on both the walls and floor, what transition exactly are you talking about?
Rmakeing the corner between floor and wall. dou you just use squar tile or is it better to use a tile that is L shaped?
should the wall tile be on top of the floor tile or should the wall tile be placed first?
Does your tile even offer "L's". Most floor tile lines do not have "specialty" pieces. At least the stores I shop in. (Not the borg stores)
I lay the floor tile to a close tolerance to the wall, 1/8" or less, and then glue the wall tile to the wall with the same grout joint used in the floor. 90 degree corner if your lucky.
i havent selected what tile i was goingto use for this project yet, i wasn't sure how comone L tiles where.
thanks for the help.
They're common, just not necessarily in the tile that you want. They're common in the more basic and commercial lines of tile.
