Popular wisdom says - building a house without corners is impossible! Therefore, indoors it is necessary to learn how to finish, internal and external corners.

If tile is used as the facing material, it is important to know how to lay the tile in the corners. Not knowing this issue can lead to a dead end for many home craftsmen, while laying tiles in a straight line will not be particularly difficult. The question of how to properly lay the tiles in the corners will try to fully reveal, based on the knowledge and experience of our masters.

Docking methods

There are several methods for how to finish wall corners. In this article, we suggest you consider the following options:

• Direct docking.
• Trimming the edge.
• Using trims.
• Corner tile.

Each of these methods has its own differences. We are sure that one of the listed methods will help you lay the tiles.

Direct docking

You can lay tiles at a right angle. This is the easiest way without any troubles. That is, it is understood that the tile is joined to each other without any clippings. As a result, one slice will be hidden, and the second in sight.

This method allows with the least effort to level the corner in any part of the wall, even in the most inaccessible. If a tile converges into a corner, and one of the edges is cut off, then think so that it is not visible. It is better to have a factory cut outside.

Important! One of the obvious disadvantages of this technology is that there will be a seam at the junction. And although it can be partially masked with grout, it will still negatively affect the final result from the aesthetic side.

Also in this category of joining tiles can be attributed another method, which involves perpendicular joining. This method is relevant only if a special border will be used for facing the protrusions.

The principle of joining tiles is as follows:  the tile adheres to the surface so that the top tile, which is horizontal, hangs over the edge. In this case, the junction of the tiles in the corner will be neat (provided that the canopy will reach no more than 5 mm). In this case, it is important that the overhanging edge has a factory cut.

Edge trimming

We can safely say that this is the most difficult way to decorate the corners of ceramic tiles. Mostly it is used by those who have special equipment for cutting tiles or experienced tilers.

The bottom line is that the sides of the two tiles are cut at 45 °. The result is an ideal angle of 90 °. Mostly tile is laid so that a small gap remains near the walls. Tiles are placed in it at least half the width of the whole.

And laying it is not difficult, because it has a rectangular shape. To form such a clear angle, you need to understand that the walls must be perfectly aligned. If the corner of the wall, both internal and external, will not have 90 °, then cutting corners at 45 ° on a tile does not make sense.

As for the cut, it is best done with an electric tile cutter. As a cutting element should be a circle with a diamond coating. Due to the high revolutions, a perfectly smooth and smooth cut is obtained.

The only thing that the guide on the bed should first be set at 45 °. After such a cut, you do not need to further process this side of the tile.

Important! If you are laying tiles in small volumes or even laying tiles for the first and last time at home, then, of course, it makes no sense to buy such a machine.

Some craftsmen have adapted to use the budget option, making a cut with a conventional tile cutter, and the edge is adjusted with a grinder. However, this method has its drawbacks. It is extremely difficult to make the perfect cut, as is the case with the electric tile cutter.

If you already have a tile cutter, and it has the ability to change the cutting angle, then you can beautifully design the internal corners of the walls and the external.

Using trims

This wall corner decoration is in great demand. Joining tiles with the use of trims greatly simplifies the process of lining. They exist both internal and external.

One of the main advantages is that it is possible to choose a trim of a very different color, which will be most suitable for the design of the corner. They can be plastic as well as metal. Accordingly, they differ in cost, the former are much cheaper. Among workers, trims are also referred to as corners.

So, for finishing the outer corner, a L-shaped corner is used. It has a slight bulge. The corners for the inner corner are concave. Often they are used as a transition from tile to bath.

Advantages of such corners:

1. Excellent aesthetic performance.
2. Excellent protection of corners from possible mechanical damage. If you accidentally catch on a corner with a heavy object, you will have to change not a tile, but just a corner. And if the corner is metal, then absolutely no damage will be visible, except perhaps a small scratch.
3. Trims are convenient for finishing corners of walls. During the laying of tiles should not be any difficulties.
4. When forming a tiled corner, there is no need to use expensive equipment, such as a tile cutter. It’s enough to have a level on hand.
5. Trim is glued using liquid nails or silicone. Special adhesives may also be used. Some experts can lay similar corners on the same solution that the tile is laid.

Important! Laying tiles in the corners in this way requires that the factory cut of the tile be on the outer corner.

Corner tile

For the decoration of the corners of the walls, a usual corner tile is often used. But not all manufacturers produce tiles of this form. This is by far the easiest way to clad corners. In appearance, they are presented as two tiles connected at 90 °.

However, they are mainly used for external corners. When laying tiles of this shape, glue is applied, on which the remaining tiles are laid in a straight line.

Important! The application of this method implies that the masonry of the tile will start from it. That is, the first elements are laid at an angle, and the rest go already butt to them.

The result is beautiful. Using this method does not even equal the use of special corners made of metal or plastic.

Elimination of defects

No matter what method you choose, doing the whole job ideally may just fail. Especially if you are a novice master, then in the course of work non-standard situations can and will arise.

Moreover, due to lack of experience, some nuances can simply get out of hand. And if you need to perform tile laying boar, then there may be questions at all, how to lay the joint in the corner.

For example, one of the difficulties that can be encountered is that it is difficult to achieve a slice ideally at 45 °. So, you can grind the excess with sandpaper until you get the desired result.

If you overdone and you got too big a slice, then do not rush to break the tile. Leave it until the next junction. You may need tiles there already.

But what if during the work chips are formed on the surface of the tile. It is clear that this is not a completely rosy situation. However, they can be eliminated using ordinary grout. If it’s difficult to disguise them in the corner, then you can cut out a plastic corner and stick it on liquid nails or silicone. Everything will go very quickly and easily.

Conclusion
So, here we have examined the question of how to lay tiles in the corners. This work is responsible, because very often the gaze of a person is directed precisely to the corners. Therefore, you should not rush when laying them, but try to do everything according to the level.

If there is no level, then you can use the rule so that visually everything turns out smoothly. Considering that all technological aspects cannot be described here, we suggest that you additionally watch a video in which the corner finishing techniques are graphically shown.

The easiest way to resolve the issue is direct docking. In this case, the elements are laid perpendicular to each other, that is, so that one section remains in sight and the other is masked under the upper fragment.

In this case, the corner in any part of the walls is closed with minimal effort. If you need to fit the tiles, it is advisable to put the cut edge under the bottom. The disadvantage of the method is the presence of a seam at the junction. In the future, it is grouted, but this still affects the appearance of the surface.

Tile laying options at internal joints

There is another way to perpendicularly join the tiles in the corners. This method is suitable, for example, for finishing ledges-borders or a bathroom frame. The main condition is that the cladding should not be visible from below.

The essence of the method is as follows: it is necessary to glue the tile so that the horizontally located (upper) tile hangs over the edge. The corner will be neat if the width of the canopy is within 3-5 mm. The only condition is that the edge must be solid.

Edge trimming

For more accurate work, you will need special equipment. The method is based on washing the edges of the tile at 45 degrees. The task is performed in the following ways:

• the edge is grinded;
• used tile cutter;
• sandpaper is used.

The best option is to process the tiles with an electric tile cutter with an inclined bed.

How to lay such a wall tile? To this end, the tiles are cut and glued with a solution into the corner so that their edges coincide and form a solid coating.

One of the ways of laying tiles in the inner and outer corners is to cut the chamfer at 45 degrees

It is not easy for beginners to lay tiles in the bathroom in this way. If possible, practice on unnecessary material. Pay attention to the surface of the walls being as even as possible, otherwise laying on a layer of glue of different thicknesses will be required, which will bring down the position of neighboring elements.

Using trims

These are special inserts. The method with their application is the most popular. They are a plastic profile, forming the angle of the desired orientation. For external protrusions, a L-shaped pad is used. And the inner surface looks like a concave arc. Narrow convex models are also used.

It is necessary to solve another important issue - how to glue a plastic corner to the tile. Several options are possible:

• sealant;
• glue;
• liquid Nails.

Often such trims have a special design that allows them to be laid on the solution. A special plate is driven under the tile and fixed with tile glue. Such an installation is extremely simple, the surface acquires a neat appearance, and the joints are protected from moisture and bacteria.

Some options for inserts for cladding

An external plastic corner and trims at the places of docking with plumbing (borders) are fixed differently, for example, silicone or acrylic sealant is used. How exactly to stick plastic to the tile in the bathroom - there is not much difference. This wall or corner finish is suitable for almost any type of material.

Corner tile

Another option for processing the corners of the walls is associated with the use of tiles of a special format. Some manufacturers produce special corner elements. They have the form of two perpendicularly connected parts forming a right angle.

Step decoration

Laying such tiles is extremely simple. To stick it, use a solution, as for other finishes. If you use such a corner, styling is done in the direction away from it. Nevertheless, this rule applies mainly to the decoration of borders in the bathroom.

Corner elements are an alternative to plastic. It allows you to maintain the integrity of the design of surfaces with ceramic tiles.

Differences between external and internal angles

When doing work, remember the difference between internal and external elements. The first option is a space where the surfaces of two walls meet along the perimeter of a standard room. The second is the protruding section.

The most striking difference is demonstrated when installing plastic corners for tiles. Trims have cardinal differences from each other, depending on their purpose for a particular area.

Examples of angles using trims

Also note that it is easier to glue the internal scoring tile, because in case of deviation from the norm, the situation is corrected with glue and grout. In general, the fugue looks more organically on the inner corners of the walls. In the bathroom, this is of particular importance, because the outer protrusions, for example, when equipping the duct, are more susceptible to destruction. Over time, the fugue simply crumbles and is washed out of there. That is why it is better to lay an additional plastic corner on the tile, which not only protects, but also decorates the surface.

Elimination of defects

It is not always possible to do the job flawlessly, especially for beginners. Nevertheless, removing some of the shortcomings is real. If it is impossible to lay out the corner with ceramic tiles, try to compensate for flaws in the solution, for example, raise the neighboring element to the desired level.

When cutting, it is not always possible to achieve a slope of strictly 45 degrees. If not enough material is trimmed, the excess is easily grinded with sandpaper until you get an even angle.

Another point is the presence of defects at the junction. There are two ways to fix the problem. The first - laying is carried out in the prescribed manner, and chips and gaps are smeared with grout in the process of decorative finishing. The second option - after the solution and the fugue have dried, a plastic profile is glued to the corner, masking these wall defects. Its installation is carried out using silicone or liquid nails.

Finishing corners is a difficult job, but you can deal with it if you follow the tips presented above.

Tile is a demanded and popular material,
  used in facing works. As a rule, the owners of apartments, they are finished with bathrooms and kitchens, because it has a number of advantages relative to competitors:
   No fear of moisture. The tile can be operated even in particularly humid rooms - bathrooms and bathrooms, and this will not have any negative impact on it;
   Hygiene The tile does not start harmful microorganisms, mold and fungus;
   Wear resistance. You can use this material even on the floor of rooms with active movement. On its surface, if the tile is laid correctly, no defects will form;
   Durability. The approximate service life of the tile is several tens of years, which means that for all this time you can forget about repairs;
   And many others.

What do you learn from this article

And in this article we will tell you how to properly trim the corners of the bathroom with tiles, because for people without experience, this is usually problematic. After the surface on which the tile will be laid becomes as even as possible, the only thing left to do is to carefully lay the tile. However, in the process you may come across a little difficulty - docking two panels. In principle, this is not particularly complicated, you just have to follow the right technology.

How can I lay the tiles in the corners

We know about three ways of laying tiles, which we will write about, your goal is to choose the most understandable and put it into practice:

First

Let's start with the most technically difficult way. Before starting laying the tile, it is cut at an angle of 45 degrees. This is done using a special tool - a tile cutter. Tile cutters are sold in almost all construction stores, so if it is not on the farm, it does not matter, finding and buying it will not be difficult. In fact, it is desirable that this work is done by professional masons, they can beautifully and very originally design a corner.

Second

If you decide to use the second method, you will need special corner profiles. They are attached to the wall using silicone sealant. This method is much easier to implement, the only difficulty is that you have to correctly select the corner according to the thickness and size of the tile inserted into the profile. The end result - the most even angle, will be worth the effort. Corners that will be used in this method come in various colors, in addition, the material of their manufacture can be different. They can be metal, plastic or aluminum.

Third

The third option is very simple and involves laying tiles in the corners of the joint in the joint. It turns out that the edge of one tile located on the wall closes the edge of the other panel, which is perpendicular.

Tile in the corners must be laid correctly. How? We will tell

Usually professional masons begin to lay tiles on the walls, and then go to the floor. This method is more correct in terms of cleaning, since you do not have to clean the floor from glue and other debris that occurs during installation.
  Laying tiles between the floor and the wall is especially effortless; it is usually covered with a baseboard. For this reason, a small gap under the baseboard is left in the bottom row.
According to the correct technology, laying tiles on the wall starts from the most prominent angle. When applying glue to the wall, a comb is used, otherwise referred to as a notched trowel. Having laid the tile on the wall, they go to the floor. Laying tiles on the floor is carried out from the bottom row from the corner.

Have you seen how beautiful it looks? In some cases, this is a beautiful sight.

Checking horizontal

Next, you need to check how horizontal the row is, for this use the construction level. In order to ensure smooth seams (gaps between the tiles), crosses are used, or more universal tools -   tile alignment systems. Being an online store, we implement both of these types of tools, about each of which we will describe at the end of this article.
  Using this method, we need to lay out the panels, until the next turn. If the tile is not completely laid at the end of the installation, and requires trimming, it should be left. This pattern applies to window openings. At the very beginning, it is necessary to fill the adjacent space of the wall with a whole tile, and where the tile does not go down without cutting, leave it to the final stage of work.
  The next problem that you will encounter is the need to trim tiles at the places where plumbing exits - pipes. This is all quite problematic and you need to cut the tiles as accurately as possible. For laying tiles in such places, plumbing extensions are dismantled so that laying takes place in the most comfortable conditions. As a rule, in such places, it becomes necessary not to trim the tiles, but to drill them. To do this, use the nozzle diamond crowns, worn on a drill.

The nuances of laying tiles in the corners

Starting to lay out the tiles in the corner, you should already decide on the method. Each of them is rational and correct in its own way, only there is one common moment for all of them. When laying tiles, you need to check it for horizontal and vertical, using the building level. Another important nuance is the choice of tile dimension. Read about how to choose a tile of the right size! Before going to a hardware store, measure the walls and floor and try to buy a tile of this size so that it fits into the room entirely and does not need clippings. If it’s impossible to “hit” like this, try to lay down the tiles, at least in large pieces.
There are no additional recommendations for traditional tile laying butt-to-butt, most importantly, using the construction level, make sure that its surface is even. It happens that before laying tile corners, there is a need to make a cut. In such cases, use the most convenient tool for this - tile cutter. Thanks to him, you can make an even seam, which, during the operation and trimming, will not be chipped.

Tile alignment systems will help you to carry out the facing work with the highest quality!

Our online store offers you to buy new innovative tools presented on the Russian market, which allow you to lay the tiles with the highest quality. In our assortment there are three varieties of the most popular in the domestic market   leveling systems  Are DLS, SVP and Litolevel. All of them have excellent factory quality, go out of production with a complete lack of marriage, made of high impact plastic. It’s impossible to say for sure which category of people they have gained the most popularity from. Beginners who have used at least once   leveling systemsspeak flatteringly about them, since they helped them to lay the tiles in a quality manner without experience. Professional masons appreciate work c   leveling systems, since they significantly simplify the facing work and, in addition, allow you to do the job several times faster. Thus, they manage to make several norms during the working day and, accordingly, earn more. Besides   leveling systems  we also sell 3D crosses, which are also popular among stackers. If we compare systems and crosses, the first ones are more universal and allow, in addition to obtaining even seams, to organize an even perfectly smooth surface, thereby solving two problems. Cost   leveling systems  slightly higher, but they are more functional.

Using tile alignment systems, you will receive the following benefits:

The absence of curved seams and the presence of a flat surface;
   No “landslide” effect - the tile does not slip at all and keeps in the place where you originally fixed it;
   It accelerates the performance of facing works two to four times, which is especially beneficial in cases when large volumes need to be made, since this factor increases productivity;
   Applying tile alignment systems to lay the tiles in high quality even for a beginner;
   Composed of   tile alignment systems There is one reusable part that allows you to save on installation in the following rooms. In all rooms starting from the second, you save fifty percent of the cost;
   The tile does not sag after the glue dries;
   And many others.

What other problems might you encounter

In addition, often there are various negative aspects, with the exploitation of uneven floors, faced with which, you understand that it was worth rooting out during the repair process:
  Uneven floors cause falls and injuries. And where, if not at home, should a person be safe?
  In addition, when the floor comes in contact with furniture, chips and cracks form on unevenly laid areas. This leads to the fact that the floor is perceived repulsively and spoils all the aesthetics of the room;
  In places where there are strong protrusions of the tile, due to differences in the plane, accumulations of dirt and dust tend to form.
  And much more that tells us that the repair should be done efficiently and only then, the owner of the home will feel comfortable!

Technologically, the process of working with systems is not difficult

To work with   tile alignment systems  no need to have seven spans in the forehead. The process of working with them is not complicated. Let's talk about it more generally and will not dwell on any particular separate system. Usually,   leveling systemconsists of two parts. One part is a leg, and is responsible for ensuring that the seam is even. It contacts the glue and at the end of the work, after dismantling the system, partially remains in the seam, but after the fugue is embedded, it becomes invisible. The second part, performs the function of the screed and starts up at the top of the first part, at the end of the work, it is knocked down with a rubber hammer and can be used many more times. There is a third part in the Litolevel tile alignment system, called the pressure washer. As you probably already managed to understand, it is screwed onto the leg and pulls together the second part with tiles. Financially, all systems are efficient and have approximately the same, comparable cost. So, which one to use - only you choose!

A person has a desire to live in comfort and coziness, which is impossible without a good repair in the entire apartment or house. Particular attention should be paid to rooms with high humidity and a sharp temperature drop. Here, facing tiles are used as the finishing material.

The way of laying in the corners

Repairing it yourself is difficult to do on your own. An inexperienced person lacks knowledge, skills and a special tool. It is especially difficult to dock two panels at the corners. Therefore, he must know how to lay tiles in the corners.

If you follow all the technologies and rules, you can learn how to lay tiles in the bathroom, toilet and other rooms yourself.

There are several methods for laying tiles in the corner of the bathroom. Everyone will be able to choose the most suitable for themselves.

3 methods are distinguished from the degree of complexity:

• trim panels by 45 degrees;
• use corner profiles;
• butt to butt.

45 degree cropping

This method is the most difficult. It will require a large concentration of attention and accuracy. The wizard will need a special tool. The tile cutter is easy to buy in almost any hardware store. In order to fit the panels as tightly as possible, the corners are cut by 45 degrees. The main advantage of this method will be the final result: a beautiful and original corner of the bathroom.

Using corner profiles

If you use corner profiles, then the master will get a fairly even internal angle. Building profiles are mounted directly to the wall with sealant. Tiles are already joined in them.

In this method, it is important to choose the right angle profiles. They should be suitable for the size and thickness of the selected material. Sold metal, plastic and aluminum corners of absolutely any size, color. The second method is much easier to implement in life than cutting tiles at an angle of 45 degrees.

Putting butt to butt is quite simple, but visually not quite a beautiful result at the finish. The edge of the panel on one wall is closed by another, perpendicular. The method is the fastest and most economical compared to the remaining two.

Panel Layout

The tile should look beautiful, and serve for a long time. Therefore, it is first laid on the walls, then on the floor. Due to this, the floor panels do not have to be cleaned for a long time after the repair, because the main percentage of dirt, adhesive, cement and other repair costs are on the floor. From many years of experience in laying tiles, it went: lay floor panels only at the final stage of construction.

Laying tiles in the corners between the wall and the floor does not require special processing. The joint simply closes with the baseboard. An experienced master specially leaves a small gap, where he simply inserts a decor element in the future.

Process sequence:

• to lay tiles on the bathroom wall you need to start from the corner;
• fix the panels will help the adhesive solution applied to the work surface;
• then, tile laying work begins;
• flat and perfect surface, without shifts and curvature, it turns out when the panels are laid from the corner;
• so the whole bottom row is laid out;
• a good master does not forget to leave a gap where he will install the baseboard.

Evenness and accuracy should be checked after laying each horizontal and vertical row with a special level. It is purchased at a hardware store. Verification at each stage of the work will help minimize the risk of curvature or shifts of panels and entire rows. Deviation at one stage of at least 1 mm as a result will affect the visual picture. Such work looks extremely sloppy.

Special crosses made of plastic help make all the gaps the same for an experienced craftsman. They are used between all the tiles, and to create an even gap between the wall and floor of the room.

Types of crosses for laying panels

Styling technology

You must first lay the whole tiles. That is, all rows of walls are laid in solid panels, leaving at the last stage those places where the sawn parts are glued.

It must be remembered that there are pipes and other sanitary openings in the bathroom and toilet. The tiles under them should be very well and correctly measured. After, it can be sawn on a special tool. Such a procedure is done at the final stage of finishing.

The wrong approach to the tile, can adversely affect the final work, many cracks and chips will appear. Such elements are no longer suitable for decoration. They will have to be thrown out. Therefore, the master is very careful in his work with panels and their cropping.

The nuances of working in corners

Before starting work on laying tiles in the corners of the bathroom, the optimal method is selected. Each of them has its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. In some - even a special tool.

The tile will lie evenly and neatly in any way, if you follow a certain sequence:

• panels are laid out strictly in a horizontal or vertical row;
• each of them is necessarily checked by the building level;
• the position of the tile does not change with respect to the floor, wall or ceiling. They may not correspond to perfectly even proportions;
• the evenness of the panels is measured solely by the level;
• the size must be selected so that the solid panels are laid in the largest possible amount.

Butt-to-butt does not require special recommendations. It is important to make the work surface even. This will greatly facilitate the laying of tiles. If you need to trim the panel in the corner, you should use a tile cutter. It cuts off an even layer without the formation of chips and cracks.

Using a special corner

If you use a building corner. It is also called trim.

Technique of work:

• the master initially reconciles the desired length and cuts off the profile at this level;
• sealant will help to fix a tile on a trim;
• the building corner is installed vertically and checked by level;
• a flat part of the trim is applied to the already laid panels;
• on the second side are new rows of tiles.

A day after the end of the work, the master wipes all joints with a special solution. So, the trim set in the tile will not be visible in the future.

Cutting tiles at 45 degrees is the best option for the outer corners of the bathroom. He is the most accurate way, suitable for such surfaces. The panels are trimmed on a special tile cutter with a rotary bed. It uses a diamond-coated disk.

The master carefully checks the outer corner. After trimming, the edges are well sanded. If this process is not approached with all caution and accuracy, then the outer corner will become sloppy, which will spoil the overall impression of the bathroom and toilet.

You can join the tiles in the corners in different ways. It all depends on the fantasy and the judgment “what is good and what is bad”. For the inner corner, two connection methods are possible:

• Docking tiles using an internal patch corner.

The inner corner of the cladding can be ennobled with a plastic corner. But this method is less and less used. This has its own reason - why do we need an extra detail.

• Simple pairing of tiles.

You can arrange the docking of two tiles on the wall in the corner without plastic, just with a seam. Usually such a seam is placed on the invisible side of the corner. If you lay the tile in a corner without a seam, then after grouting, there will be a black gap at the junction. Correct later, you can only silicone. And it is good if the color of the silicone and grout match. What happens rarely.

Docking tiles in the inner corner.

Disadvantages. Cracks may appear on the grout in such a joint. Western technology recommends, for drywall and similar structures, to fill the vertical seams at the inner corners with sanitary silicone. For brick walls, such a precaution is superfluous.

Sealing the inside corner of the shower cubicles with silicone.

With options for the outer corner, a person’s imagination is more fruitful. Five docking methods can be applied here:

• The most common is to cover the edge of the tile with a false outer corner. It can be plastic, aluminum or brass. But the essence and installation method does not change from this. Installation is made during tile laying. Disadvantages - This is another design element. The smaller the number of such parts, the more interesting the design. And further. Corners are more likely to become contaminated and more difficult to clean along with ceramics.

Outside plastic corner on the box

• Recently, laying tiles in corners with an outer corner has become less popular. “Everything is like everyone else” is the main culprit of this cooling. Replaces the technology of grinding tiles in the butt at an angle of 45 degrees. This makes it possible to do without corners. The angle becomes more natural and harmonious. But to make such a corner requires skill and tool. What does not make this method cheaper than the previous ones. The second drawback of this solution is increased vulnerability. At the slightest blow, the tile at the seaming site breaks off.

Tile decoration on charcoal without plastic

• The third method is less common, but still present in the decoration of the outer corners. Especially in tiled boar lining. Its meaning is to alternately put the end of the tile on one side, then on the second. There are people who think that “it’s beautiful”. That is their right. And maybe there is something to it.

Variant of facing the corner with “boar” tile

• The fourth technique can be considered a variation of the previous one. Only the end of the tile is visible on one side of the corner. They do not hide it and do not ennoble it. This method is typical for tiles on steps and protruding socles. Otherwise, in these cases it is impossible. The only trick that can be applied is to set the painted end of the tile. On many tiles, one of the four ends has a tile color. Another such option is possible when facing with natural stone.

Tile butt on the base.

Tile end in the shower.

• The fifth method is very rare and not for everybody. I am one of those lovers. The idea of \u200b\u200bthis corner design is that none of the tiles protrude on the line of the corner, but is located in its plane. The inner corner formed from the two ends of the tiles is formed using grout in a semicircle.

Below is a video where there are still fans of this angle:

• The sixth way. Little known but interesting in design   and method of embodiment.

Excerpts and consultations:

1. How to tile the inner corner with uneven walls?

On uneven walls, before facing, it is necessary to do   . Having previously determined where and by how much the angle goes from the vertical. Otherwise, it is possible that starting from the bottom with a whole tile, a few centimeters will appear under the ceiling at the corners of the slit (depending on the walls).

Tile in the inner corner with curved walls.

If you start filling these slots with pieces of tiles, then the entire wedge on the wall will be noticeable. The seams are arranged more or less vertically. Therefore, for each case, its own layout of tiles. But the general rule is that at the edges you need to put pieces of tiles (if the layout allows). Moreover, the pieces should be large, more than half the tiles. At such an undercut, the deviation of the walls from the vertical is not visible.

Other tile options in the corner.

2. “... how do tiles fit in corners abroad?”

Strongly do not "bother." Basically “G” chrome corner closes the end of the tile:
