If the raised portion extends to the four corners, maybe use no spacer at all on those tiles. 2) Good question. This did come up. There are a few ways to handle, one is to replace your box with a deeper outlet box. I didn't want the hassle of that. I purchased plastic "outlet shims" and bought longer screws. That worked.Renov8orhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00004443875729804080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4123025195067333924.post-20705989700096899782021-07-25T08:39:03.640-07:002021-07-25T08:39:03.640-07:00that's great....

Every now and then, our backsplash has a decorative tile that has a lifted design on it.<br />2) How do you handle the lights/outlets? Did you have to get a piece that would push them out further?<br />Thank you!! :)Stephanie Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12723768432580662691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4123025195067333924.post-16505011720113600622021-02-12T06:59:23.497-08:002021-02-12T06:59:23.497-08:00It held up perfectly for years, lasted until we sa...It held up perfectly for years, lasted until we saved enough money to renovate the kitchen.

I'm at a loss about the tiling my end, because it is a big bathroom, floor to ceiling... Terry's method seems too good to be true, and you then mention about not doing a bathroom... and you were a big advocate of his approach too...
