A very serious part of your ceramic tile installation is picking out the right spacing between the tiles. You want to figure that out before you start the project. A right and straight pattern will be the result of tile spacers when laying the tiles.
Does Size Spacing Matter?
Yes. The size spacing is very important, it will be helpful with the style and design as well as getting the plan done the right way.You will want to work out the tile spacing, before you start cutting or laying your tile. This is important to ensure that the tiles at the edge of the room or walls are not small pieces or fillers that will change the look of your design.
If you choose not to use spacers and guess at the amount of space in-between each tile, this could throw off the whole room and your grout lines will not be straight. You want to keep your tile in a grid; this will permit you to build a stable finish to your project.

The Principle Of Using Spacers Is For Your Tile To Be Lined Up Right
Opting to use spacers will decide the width of your finish grout line consistently. The more usual sizes are 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", 1/8", 1/16", being the more used spacers the ¼ or 3/8 inch.
Normally, when the case is marble floor installation, the spacers are rarely used.

The Size Of The Tile Spacers Will Depend On The Size Of The Tile And The Look That You Choose
There really is not a specific rule to what size spacer you will be using. If you were to have a 10x10 tile you want to use the spacer that would fit better in your project for less cutting and also that will put your tile wall to wall or end to end.
