Not too long ago, setting tile exceeded the skills and abilities of most homeowners. Ceramic tiles were soaked in water overnight and set in thick mortar, turning it into a tricky and time-consuming procedure. But with the introduction of thin-set adhesives and backer board, ceramic tile installation has moved well.

Ceramic Tile

Ceramic TileCeramic tile is made by heat and cooling the naturally occurring minerals in the clay. A comprehensive variety of styles can be made for textures, colours, sizes, shapes, and finishes in ceramic. Ceramic is prevalent in many homes but very sought-after in southwestern-style homes.

Travertine Tile

Travertine is created from a form of limestone. It originates around hot springs all over the world. As a naturally occurring material, Travertine has distinctive natural designs and character. The minerals are deposited randomly, so when a one-of-a-kind floor is desired, Travertine is chosen.

Slate Tile

Made from metamorphic rocks, slate is discovered all over the planet. Slate varies in colour from tan to black, red to copper, and sage to navy. It is a finely grained tile and can be used both indoors and outdoors at your home or business. This permits you to correspond between inside and out.

Porcelain Tile

Porcelain is a clay tile type that is much denser and fabricated at considerably higher temperatures than ceramic. As a result, it is denser and tough and can be used indoors and out. While most people think white when they consider porcelain, the flooring is available in a wide variety of colours and styles.

Wood Look Tile

Wood-look type is made generally from ceramic or porcelain but styled to mimic the look of the wood grain. Rich wood colour is added to the lines and grain of the wood spread on the tile. This combination of styling gives the appearance of a wood floor but the effortless cleaning and durability of tile.

Granite Tile

As lava and magma cool, they leave behind the igneous rock Granite. It is distinct from other igneous stones as it has more minor specks on its exterior. The colour of the stone and the flecks differ, so you can find a wide assortment of granite tile for your home, business, or any other location you are building.

Marble Tile

Marble is one of the hardest and most visually stunning tile materials available. They are sought-after for their durability and the fantastic breadth of colours and natural patterns. Even over the natural magnificence of marble, it is tumbled, polished, honed, and brushed for individuality.

Stone & Pebble Tile

Stone and pebble tiles are trendy for both indoor and outdoor areas alike. They bring a touch of nature into any space, such as a lavatory, shower, or even laundry room. In addition, they consistently have a distinctive pattern, so you’re sure to have a one-of-a-kind flooring look!

Quartzite Tile

Quartzite offers unbelievable durability and versatility. It is a naturally occurring type of stone that is metamorphic. There is a wide variety of colours and textures to customise your space in your home. It can be used inside-outside and is excellent for commercial and residential properties.

Onyx Tile

Onyx offers a striking visual presentation with a transparent appearance no other stone can offer. It is a soft stone suitable for tile flooring areas with light to medium traffic. It is also used for countertops in spaces where the earth-toned stone adds character and enables a floor to stand out.

Start from the centre

While installing the tile floor, the finished area should seem symmetrical. To accomplish this, we need to take the room’s dimensions and calculate the centre of the surface. Even for smaller spaces, the center is required to make the installation perfect and straightforward.

Adjust the surface by squaring

While tiling, the surface space should be in a square. This makes our work a bit simpler by finding the centre of the room. However, particularly in the houses of the olden days, you may observe that surface is not in a squared manner. It makes the installation a bit tough. In that case, use a wall as a base, and that is an obvious solution for rooms that are not in a perfect square. Then you will find the tiles are parallel to the wall.

Divide into quarters

After locating the centre or baseline of your work, draw vertical lines with chalk or marker. These lines will divide the room into four quadrants. Try to work outward from the centre of the room. There will be a slight change in tiling a wall; your reference should be on top-line, not a centre or baseline. Use a level for drawing the line and begin working on it. But some walls may not be straight, so be cautious while drawing a top line.

Stepping off the Figure

The last step to be followed after finding the centre and squaring the room, arrange tiles in rows for every quadrant before combining the adhesive. Complete the tiling row-wise accordingly of each wall. In this last step, you may face difficulty in the arrangement and centring of the room. Check the centring at the layout stage itself; otherwise, it will be a significant problem at the end. Follow the same procedure for tiling walls also with vertical and horizontal distances.
