Stages of finishing the bathroom with tile
For 5-30 min. Before laying the tile , the wall plane needs to be carefully processed with a primer. The primer will bind the dust, it will better adhesion the adhesive to the plane. It is possible to prime the walls with stripes a little wider than the tiles: so it will be more comfortable to work, and the prick of priming the plane does not disappear. Priming can be done with a brush, you can roller.
It is recommended that begin the facing first from the floor plane, becauseflat floor - a pledge of success. In the beginning, if it is uneven, it is poured with a special self-leveling screed, in shopping centers it is sold in dry form. When the screed on the floor dries, begin the flooring from the side of the doorway so that all the trimmed slabs are under the bathroom. During the work will have to face such a type of work, as pruning tiles. It consists in the following: a line of notch is applied to the tile, placed on the tile cutter-cutting device-and with a slight pressure on the tile we conduct a special knife along the line, which is present on the machine. We make a break - everything, the tile is cut off. After the first row of tiles is laid out on the floor, we check its plane according to the level, the initial row is the most important. From it, and further facing of the entire surface. Between the seams of the tile, plastic crosses are inserted so that the seam line is even.
Next stage - after the floor tiles have dried, begins the surface lining of the wall: 10 cm from the floor to the wall, a metal profile is fastened to the level, using dowels and a drill with a percussion mechanism. The process of gluing the tiles to the wall is no different from the flooring, the only difference is that the work is going on vertically. Sequences of laying tiles can be an inexhaustible number. Begin, in addition, it is possible from any wall, although usually the first wall is lined with the wall where the bath is located. Often, the tiles are laid from the corner, the tile lies symmetrically, and if it is not right to calculate the thickness of the seams between the tiles, the final cut row can be narrower or larger than the first cut.
The final stage - grouting : with a rubber spatula we take the already prepared grouted grout. The density of the grout should be not particularly liquid, but not very thick. We apply to the inter-part seams so that the grout completely enters into them. After 10 minutes using a damp sponge, remove the remaining grout from the surface of the tile and gently smooth the seams. Everything, process of furnish by a tile of a bathroom is completed. Good luck!
