Lately, we have Clients requesting large tiles be installed when remodeling their bathrooms. Why? Minimal grout lines. Some clients don't want to see alot of lines in their shower/bathroom walls. They would rather focus on the pattern or look of the tile. Some Clients don't want the cleaning required on grout lines. Less lines equals lower maintenance for them.
There is a fix to the cleaning problem of grout lines. Granted, it will not eliminate the need to clean a shower. But if you use a grout epoxy in the shower area, it will clean more easily and quickly than regular grout. But its expensive, as much as 3x a regular box of grout. Also, the labor to install is more since it takes more time to apply than regular grout. Yet it pays for itself in the long term.
