Tile laying services: features, stages

Ceramic tiles are among the most popular facing materials. It can be placed on the floor and walls, in different rooms (often in the bathroom and kitchen). To do the job efficiently, you need to seek help from the facing masters, since this process requires good practical skills.

The positive qualities of ceramic tiles are its practicality, beautiful appearance and environmental friendliness, it will last a long time if all technological requirements were followed during laying out.

Professional tiling is divided into the following stages:

- preparation of the base: the surface must be absolutely even, if there are flaws, then they need to be leveled. If the base is cement, then it must be primed so that the adhesion to the adhesive is strong. It is important to take care of the lighting so that the master can complete all the details with high quality;

- markup: before starting work, markup is performed in accordance with the sketch, especially if the material has a non-standard or complex pattern. It is performed with an adhesive solution using a cord. Door jambs and skirting boards are also dismantled, after which a preliminary layout is done. This should be done in order to see in advance where sections need to be trimmed, as well as to assess the overall appearance;

- laying: after carrying out the above procedures, the final laying of the tile takes place.

Our experts recommend paying attention to the fact that in our latitudes, the high thermal conductivity of ceramics in winter is likely to cause inconvenience, because the surface will be cold. A good solution to this problem can be an electric heating system, then the floor will delight you at any time of the year.

Another important point is that cutting elements often spoil the appearance, so it would be logical to put them in less noticeable places: behind curtains, under a radiator, under a bed or a closet.

Tiled work is carried out in several stages:

1. Even before starting the repair, you need to choose the width of the seams, which depends on the type of ceramics. This affects the choice of layout method.
2. Glue preparation and application. The mixture is diluted with water according to the manufacturer's instructions, the fluidity of the finished solution is checked. Then it is applied to the base and leveled with a special spatula. The maximum coverage area is up to a square meter, if more, then the glue will dry out.
3. The tile is moistened with water and carefully laid out on the base with a solution, slightly pressing on top and tapping, so that a reliable fixation occurs. Laying ceramics on the floor is carried out from the center to the walls according to the drawn markings.
4. The master tiler constantly checks the horizontal level with a building level, if there are deviations, they are corrected by applying more or less mortar.

Before starting laying work, it is worth checking all engineering communications, especially if the working area is located in the bathroom or in the kitchen. The cost is calculated individually, after measurements by a specialist.

Tiling, the price of which differs depending on the condition of the original surface, can be performed in different technologies:

• rectangular method - the elements are laid in even rows parallel to the walls. This is a very fast and reliable mounting option, and such a seamless coating can visually expand the space;
• installation according to the type of "brickwork": fixing of individual parts is carried out with a shift to each other. Most often it is used for the texture of natural shades, imitations of stone or wood;
• at an angle: diagonal coating is made at an angle of 45 degrees to the wall, used for small rooms to visually expand them. The consumption of tiles with this type of overlay will be 20% more due to trimming the elements at the junction with the wall;
• herringbone method: creates an imitation of parquet, is implemented only for rectangular parts;
• chess system: used to create a bright interior using several colors, the more contrasting of them is laid out at an angle.

Master tiler - the price per square meter depends on the above factors, as well as the individual preferences of the client.

The cost of laying tiles

The main factors that determine the cost of the work are the condition of the original surface, quadrature, complexity, tile parameters (the larger the details, the cheaper), the installation method, the amount of work on cutting parts, additional decor (inserts, ornaments, borders).

Preparation for the installation of tiles also affects the overall price: the need for dismantling, leveling the base surface, primer finishes. The price may increase if the installation site is inconvenient, for example, a narrow corridor or a bathroom - all this should be taken into account when ordering a tile laying service. The cost per square meter depends on the material used - it can be standard or elite.

The overall price also depends on the type of tile, which can be ceramic, porcelain stoneware, glass, vinyl, mosaic or carpet. Each type has different performance characteristics and is used in different rooms.

The cost of tiling can be more expensive if additional manipulations are needed to install electrical appliances or plumbing. Do not carry out this type of work yourself, as there is a high probability of damage. Incorrectly selected installation technology, as well as inexperienced dilution of the glue, will lead to the fragility of such a coating. Accuracy will also suffer.
