How to Install Kitchen Wall Splashback Metro Tiles – Tile Mountain

Craig Philips shares his top tips to installing splashback tiles in a brick effect using metro tiles from Tile Mountain. In this video, Craig takes us through how to plan out your tiles so that you don’t have to make very small cuts at the very end of your row and how to apply your adhesive for a professional finish.

Craig Phillips started his working life as an apprentice bricklayer, and after several years of studying went on to set up his own successful construction company. In 2000, his life took a dramatic change when he won Britain’s first ever reality TV show, Big Brother. Craig put his new found fame to use, and went on to combine his knowledge of construction and media savvy to forge a brilliant career as one of the UK’s leading DIY and home improvement experts.

With his vast knowledge, we thought he’d be the perfect person to help create our series of ‘How To’ videos that are designed to answer the most frequently asked questions that we receive about tiles and tiling.

  1. Great video. What are your views on tiling an uneven work surface? Some recommend to fix a temporary batten to the wall in place of the first row of tiles, to ensure the level is 100% level all the way round, then come back and do the first row, trimming off the top if required.
    Others however just say to start from the bottom row as the human eye won’t work out if it’s slightly wonky once done. Thanks

  2. Hello Craig just a quick question. We are having our shower puting in and the tiles I want are small mosaic ones. About 3 X 2. But the tiler seems unsure how to tile them.
    I've heard that they are not suitable about this. Would appreciate your answer..
    Thanking you.

  3. Did Craig remove the spacers prior to grouting or grout over them? Doing my first ever tiling job in our wc soon and videos like this give me more confidence in doing so
