In a Rectangular Stretcher Bond Pattern rectangular tiles are laid in a brick pattern. Each tile overlaps the tile above and below by half, resulting in offset grout lines. The offset grout lines can hide imperfections in tiling, and it is a good way to give an illusion of space and height. The pattern can be laid horizontally, vertically or diagonally.
Stretcher Bond Tiles have varying sizes depending on their usage on a floor or wall. Wall tiles are typically sized at 1” x 2” and 2” x 4” (25 x 51, 51 x 102 mm). The typical sizes of floor tiles are 3” x 6”, 4” x 8”, 5” x 10”, and 6” x 12” (76 x 152, 102 x 204, 127 x 254 , 152 x 304 mm).
