Copy Selection
You can save a lot of time by using this tool. How does Copy Selection work? First, select any copiable object. Next, from Edit tools -- Create. Turn it on by checking the box next to "Copy Selection". If you also check the box next to "Keep Tool Selected", you will be allowed to repeatedly use the Create tool without having to re-select it. Click on any face of the object. Notice how when you make copies they are aligned edge-to-edge. If you select "Center Copy", the copies will be aligned edge-to-edge neatly when they are built. "Rotate Copy", makes the copy match the rotation of the target object.

I already use gridsnap for that.

You could use this to make sure the walls and floor of your house met exactly without overlapping, which is really useful for avoiding texture flicker at edges.
