3 16 flooring grout 12 by 24 tile.
Actual finished grout spaces will vary from 1 8 to 1 4 if 3 16 spacers are used.
Large tiles give you so much design freedom.
I was referred to malin tile from a friend.
And tile as large as 48 is becoming common.
These tiles usually are spaced with grout lines 3 16 inch or wider.
All other cuts of tile from tumbled to chiseled to punched contain slight variations in shape and size.

That includes grout joints too.
Rectified tiles are perfectly uniform with precisely defined edges requiring the least amount of grout.
Some really large format tiles 18 by 18 inches square or larger look good with very narrow grout lines that are filled with a grout colored to match the tile.

A higher quality tile could allow for a 1 16 or 1 8 grout line and maybe even a brick layout as lippage may not be an issue in a perfect tile world where as a lower quality tile might have major lippage risk so laying the tile in 1 3 s and having a 1 4 grout line is recommended.

However large tile can be challenging to install.
Pure grout is 100 waterproof.
I really love the look and durability of 12 24 tile flooring so i definitely think it s a great choice.
Without these precise edges much more grout is needed to even things out across the floor.
Plastic spacers are usually used at tile corners to form even grout spaces.
Now 12 x 24 is the new 12 x 12.
If smaller spacers like 1 8 are used it will accentuate the size difference of handmade tile.
