Abstract

A spacing device for use in forming an array of tiles mounted on a substrate is described. The spacing device is made of an elastomeric material and has a base part of substantially uniform thickness on which there are radially extending fins. The corners of the tiles fit between these fins. The device allows tiles to be evenly laid on indoor floor without the use of plywood or adhesive.
