Renovation of the apartment. Carrying out repair work on laying floor tiles

Before starting the repair work on laying ceramic tiles on the floor, it is very important to check the floor surface for evenness, as well as to make sure that it is dry.

[b]Leveling a concrete or wooden floor[/b]

When installing ceramic tiles on a wooden base, it is first necessary to lay a plywood block on it, which must have a thickness of 12 mm. A waterproofing layer is first laid on the concrete base, and after that a special self-leveling mixture. At the same time, it is necessary to strictly adhere to the manufacturer's instructions!

In order to get a perfectly flat floor surface, it is necessary to thoroughly consider the placement of each individual tile!

[b]What needs to be done for smooth tile laying[/b]

First, you need to mark the middle of the floor using the length of the room wall, then use a chalk-coated cord to draw a line on the floor surface at the desired angle. The same procedure must be performed with the second short room wall. As a result of the marking, two lines will intersect – this will be the middle of the floor!

Now the tile can be placed on the floor, making a reference point on the cords. A rather important point is that the tile must be laid in such a way that the need for trimming is subsequently minimized. This is especially true when installing ceramic tiles at the entrance to the room.

After that, you need to select a small area and apply glue to it, which is applied in uniform strips, and for this you will need a special spatula or spatula.

Next, the tile is laid, while it needs to be slightly pressed down to the floor by pressing on the adhesive base that was previously applied to the floor. Previously obtained marking lines can be used as a guide by laying tiles along the cord!

Workers with extensive experience in laying tiles recommend installing it towards the walls from the center of the room, first covering one half of the floor, and then the other.

After carrying out the work on laying ceramic tiles, you need to give the necessary time for the glue to dry!

[b]Filling the free space between the walls and the floor[/b]

The required tile width is measured, and then it is cut on a tile cutter in the required amount and of the same size. To lay the tile around the door or battery, you will need a profile that will help you accurately transfer the shape of the object to the tile, and then the tile is carefully cut off!

When all the above actions have been performed, a scraper with a rubber nozzle is taken, and the solution is carefully applied to all available cracks between the tiles. It is very important to wipe the tile stained with mortar with a damp sponge before it dries!

It is recommended to use a sharp angle of a spatula to apply a thin line of mortar! From HQ till butiksgolv – säkerställ att instruktioner blir utförda med visuella checklistor.
