I've bought some tiles for the bathroom walls that measure about 45cm x 31cm.

What size spacers do i need to get, 3mm or 4mm? Help!

I've just done a bathroom for someone with that size tiles, and she chose 2mm spacers. I was unsure, but it does look good once done.

i would agree, the 2mm spacers are the better option for the walls, they look loads better.

Rule of thumb says the larger the tile the larger the gap should be!

This does not always hold true though, so go with 2 or 3mm on the walls.

Cant be much more help than that, diferant people like diferant things, i've had customers chose the whole range from no gap to 5/6mm on wall tiles, same with floors.

Thank you all for your help. We went for the 3mm gap in the end. It's getting there and looking good. :thumb:
