Old Style Bathroom Floor Tiles


Old Style Bathroom Floor Tiles - Ceramic or porcelain tile flooring is extremely durable as well as an excellent investment in your home. Tiles will continue forever if they are taken care of, and virtually never wear out. When you're getting ready to set up the tile flooring you'll need to get the ceramic or porcelain tiles, cement backer board, tile nippers, sponges, tape measure, knee pads, tile cutter or tile saw, grout, square, rubber float, chalk line, plenty of water, eye protection, thin set, pails, hammer, notched trowel, and nails.

Eliminate wooden floorings, carpet, or any existing floor coverings. Clean the subfloor it's free of debris and dust. Make sure that the flooring is secure and tough. The old flooring should be disposed of, and most garbage services don't pick up such items.


Make use of a chalk line to mark two lines that intersect in the middle of the place. Make sure the lines are square to every other (90 degrees). Place a row of tiles along both lines on the dry floor. Look at the way the tiles are ordered; you want as many whole tiles in the middle as possible. Until you are content with the way they are placed, fiddle with the tile.

Use set to hold your tiles in place. Utilize a notched trowel to spread the thin set. Distribute the thin-set only to as far as you are able to comfortably reach and put a tile. Install your tiles to the inset having a firm downward pressure. Don't forget to place spacers between the tiles. It's possible for you to harness on the tile gradually to make certain that it is in place. Begin at the center and work out to the walls. The cut tiles and border tiles are installed last.
