Hi,
I'm tiling the floor of my front entryway/vestibule, and in the lay-out I have designed, have a 2" tile border with a 1/2 inch space on either side running around the perimeter of the 4' square space (larger 6" tiles are fill the centre of the space with 1/4" spacers). I wanted to know whether I might have problems using grout when having that wide a gap around the border (would it be more prone to cracking when used in wider areas?), and whether I should use cement instead. Is cement stronger than grout?
