Woodworking Quiz for 27 May 04
Good Evening Friends,
When you are laying floor tile or sheet goods in a bathroom or kitchen, how close to the walls can you go with the materials?
Respectfully,

Assuming they are wood based products about 1/2" (12.5mm) gap all round to allow for expansion and to prevent buckling.

It rather depends on what the finished wall surface is. if its cement render I wouldn't get much closer than 300mm otherwise you tend to skin your knuckles. If its something smooth like plasterboard probably about 100mm is a good distance. However if you are using timber flooring products, whatever Tonz said sounds ok :eek:

woodworking quiz answer for 27 May 04
Good Morning Friends,
You are both correct in your answers. As 1/4 to 3/8" is sufficient and the fact that diagonal wood sub flooring is no longer used, sheet goods used for sub flooring has little or no movement.
Thank you for your support.
