I am in the process of finishing my basement, which includes the addition a 6'X6' bathroom with a stall shower. The walls are ~7'6" high. I plan on tiling the entire shower, but only tiling part of the walls. Is there a "typical" height for the tile when not tiling all the way up the wall, or is just personal preference? My light switch is centered 48" above the floor. My eye thinks that keeping the tile below the switch will look too low. So, I was going to have the trim row end several inched above the switch. I just wondered if there was a convention when tiling only half the wall. Thanks

We installed a ceramic backsplash 5 yrs ago... I found some beautiful copper tiles I'd like to add as well as to the stove backsplash. Is it possible to safely remove only a few tiles here and there to add the copper tiles without ruining the other tiles? If so, how do I begin to break a tile...in the middle or start chipping away the grout. I dont want to detroy any of the other tiles. thanks!
