Decoration is a science. I didn't take it seriously before. Now it's my turn to spend time decorating a house, and I really realize the importance of this sentence.

Let’s take tiling as an example: unlike soft decoration, things can be returned easily if they don’t fit. However, for most hard decoration processes, there is no turning back once the work starts, especially for ceramic tiles. The subsequent paving effect is not ideal, so you can only compromise by yourself. Or take it all as ordered.

Therefore, if you don’t want to rework, save time, and prevent some bricklayers from being afraid of trouble and choosing to be lazy or careless, recommends: Definitely! must! Make sure 5 things are clear in advance!

Problems with unobstructed sewer pipes

This step may seem irrelevant, but it is actually very necessary. Filling it with water is not just a test. , to see if the floor drain is blocked. In a sense, it is also telling the bricklayer that everything handed over to you is normal. During the process of laying

ceramic tiles, protect each drain and seal it to avoid cement mortar falls into it, causing blockage and unnecessary wrangling.

Ceramic tile layout should be rehearsed

Do not lay the tiles as soon as you start. This is a taboo in decoration. It would be better if the tile manufacturer provides laying drawings and plans. Just click on the above and the rest is explained to the bricklayer. Some details:

  1. through the shop, seam, Do you want threshold stone?
  2. Discover defective bricks in time. How to hide small bricks without using
  3. ...

Then, for tiles with connected patterns, you must layout the texture in advance before starting to avoid this effect. I laughed all the time haha , it gives me a headache just thinking about reworking it now.

Details of the junction of wall and floor tiles

Are the wall tiles pressed against the floor, or the floor tiles pressed against the wall? This is a common question. In fact, each has its own advantages and disadvantages. It depends on personal choice. If you have done your homework in advance and prefer a certain type, you must communicate well with the master, otherwise you will all default to the one that presses the wall.

Wall bricks pressed to the ground

The advantage is that the cement mortar for wall tiles can be separated from the cement mortar for floor tiles. prevents the sand and ash layer on the ground from being absorbed by the cement mortar on the wall after water enters, causing adjacent The walls of the room are alkaline.

√ The disadvantage of is that it requires high craftsmanship from the workers. If it is not up to standard, it is easy for the drum to become hollow and fall off.

Floor tiles pressed against the wall

The advantages are: simple construction, wall tiles are not easy to fall off

√ The disadvantage of is that the cement mortar of the wall tiles and the cement mortar of the floor tiles are integrated. In order to prevent water from adsorbing to the wall and causing the walls of adjacent rooms to become damp, needs to be matched with 1.8m waterproofing. , is much more. A patch also increases the budget.

What kind of craftsmanship is

After living for a long time, I deeply realized that in decoration, it is the insignificant details that have the greatest impact on the comfort of living.

Based on the picture above, Haitangjiao is undoubtedly the best choice to avoid overturning. You must pay attention when processing, cutting and polishing at 45 degrees, leaving a 2mm flat edge on the side, and finally adding the master's perfect sewing skills. The overall presentation effect is very good.

minimalist style + pre-embedded installation, I found the metal edge guard, and now the installed effect is also very amazing.

Mark the location of water and electricity pipelines

This is really a history of blood and tears. After laying the tiles, you must ask the master to mark the location of the water pipes, and remember to take photos on site for your records, otherwise if you drill holes later, you will not be able to hit the water pipes. Okay, it's marked so you can avoid it.
