Tile - one of leaders in the world of materials for finishing of rooms. It is put both on floor, and on walls, and on ceiling. In each case the technology of laying in general identical, but is also the nuances. They first of all also need to be considered when carrying out repair work. Especially it concerns tile for walls.
It is required to you
- - tile;
- - the gluing mix;
- - marking crosses;
- - construction tools: palette, level, etc.
Instruction
1. Before works attentively look round indoors - you need to think over in advance where and as batteries, washbasins, the washing machine, the fridge and other objects depending on what room you will revet with tile have to be located. If you want to move these objects, then it is necessary to make it even prior to laying. Choose tile special, marked as for works with walls.
2. Prepare walls for laying further. If the basis plastered, then it surely has to be not smooth. So, for example, it is possible to scratch it a little. It is necessary to provide good hitch of material and the basis. In case the tile keeps within on gypsum cardboard, then it needs previously to be attached on the firm basis. Only this way it will be able to sustain the weight of all laid tile. Besides it is necessary to choose gypsum cardboard waterproof.
3. As option, you can paste tile and on the basis with already earlier laid tile. Only for this purpose it is necessary that the old tile has been reliably attached to the basis. Also you need special glue. The painted surface before laying of tile needs to be scratched carefully, as well as in case with the plastered walls.
4. After surface preparation clean it, dry and remove all greasy and oil stains. Then also leave to wall progruntuyta them before full drying.
5. Apply solution of the gluing material on wall. Do it by parts that it too quickly has not dried and has not lost the properties. Start laying of tile. Begin to do it from the second row. Before laying put not wall special marking crosses. Their ideal size - 1.5-2 mm. Place crosses on equal vertical and horizontal lines - it is the simplest to mark them by means of special construction level. So you will provide equal marking and, as a result, equal laying of tile.
6. Begin to stack tile from the second row from below up. It is necessary in order that it was possible the first row (what is on joint with floor) easy to correct, for example, having cut where it is necessary.
7. The important value has also the angle of laying. If you want to do it to internal corner, then begin finishing work with outer edge. If you cannot be defined, then begin laying from the center.
8. After laying of all tile let's glue dry up. Then process joints between tile and close up them putty on color suitable to the stacked tile.
