Base Details – Tile

Base/Cove Alternatives

This set of diagrams show alterative options to handle the transition of a tile assembly between wall and floor, illustrating a flush cove base, lipped cove base, and simple square base condition. When using a coved base, the horizontal leg of the cove should reside flush or slightly above the tile floor finish, so water and debris do not accumulate in the recess.
