The device includes measuring means having a caliper arrangement to measure the width of an area to be covered by a tile, a tile-receiving region including a fixed point and a slidable member, said member having an elongate slot in which is engageable a cutting edge of a combined scoring and parting means, also provided with tile parting jaws. The caliper arrangement may be arranged to allow for a grouting gap.
