While there are
many different types of tiles from which to choose, there are several pointers
that are common to all tiling jobs that you should follow:
- Ensure you
choose the correct tile type for your application
(commercial, residential etc.)
- Prepare floor
surfaces properly before laying tile
- Choose the
correct grout for the job (sanded or unsanded)
- Stick with
first-quality tiles, to ensure consistency and a quality job
- Ensure that
tiles are set with the correct materials, for example Multicrete thinset
for the installation of porcelain tiles.
- When setting
tiles over an existing terrazzo floor surface, ensure that the floor is
properly chipped and free of polish, so that the new tiles adhere properly
- Ensure that
your installer squares the room properly prior to starting with the tiling
job, so as to ensure equal cuts on each side of the room
By using a quality
product from Rafmon, and a good installer, you can be assured that your property
will be enhanced with a surface that will offer many years of stress-free
service.
