How long can the bathroom be tiled after doing waterproofing

Bathroom waterproofing can be tiled after 5-7 days, under normal circumstances, after the waterproof layer is done 2 to 3 times, there will be a curing period of 5 to 7 days, the curing period is up, we need to test whether the waterproof is good or not, leakage or not, which requires a water storage test. The water storage depth of the water storage test should not be less than 20mm, the water storage height is generally 30 100mm, the water storage time is 24 hours, and the water surface is qualified if there is no obvious drop.

This test is generally done on the roof, bathroom or room with waterproof requirements. In the early stage of the water storage test, it should be inspected downstairs every 1 hour, and every 2-3 hours in the later stage. If water leakage is found, the water storage test should be stopped immediately, the waterproof layer should be re-improved, and the water storage test should be carried out after the treatment is qualified.

If there is no leakage, the tile can be attached.

1。First of all, the dirt on the wall should be removed. It is recommended that the wall be mixed with a clay knife and then smoothed with cement slurry, mainly to prevent hollowing after sticking bricks.

At the same time, in order to prevent exhaust fans and install suspended ceilings, attention should be paid to the height. In addition, the dimensions of wall tiles and floor tiles should correspond to each other and should not be too different. In the end, this is correct based on the height, size, and overall effect.

When the uniform wall tiles are different, the large bricks are pasted from the bottom up, and the small bricks are pasted from the top down.

2。The ingredients must be adjusted according to the proportions on the instructions and stirred until the lubrication is uniform and there are no lumps or pastes. After stirring, the construction mud is static for 5-10 minutes, stirred for 1-2 minutes, and it can be used.

Finally, scrape the freshly mixed adhesive slurry evenly onto the wall so that it is in full contact with the back of the tile. Just lay the tiles on top of it.

What are the precautions for tiling? How long does it take to tile the wall after waterproofing?

1。For most people, it is obvious that bricks need to be soaked in water before they can be laid. It is recommended to soak in water for about half an hour, so that the tiles can absorb water more fully, adhere to the cement, and lay more firmly on the wall; In addition, before laying the tiles, it is necessary to check whether the cracks need to be repaired and whether the putty powder has not been removed.

Direct paving will cause the tiles to fall off at a later stage.

2。When paving, it is necessary to choose the appropriate cement grade and the ratio of cement to sand. Generally speaking, the higher the cement ratio, the stronger the adhesion of the tile. However, the higher the cement mix ratio, the greater the expansion coefficient of cement mortar, and the brick is easy to crack after paving.

After the bathroom is waterproofed, it needs to be thoroughly dried, so that it can do the closed water test, you can contact the residents downstairs in advance, so that the leakage can be informed in time to avoid unnecessary losses of the downstairs residents When doing the closed water test, the depth of water storage can not be less than 20 cm, and the time can not be less than 72 hours, and the water level does not fall is qualified.

If you are not in a hurry, it is recommended that after the waterproof material dries naturally (depending on the indoor situation, generally 3-5 days), do a closed water test, do it for 48 hours, plug the funnel, and fill it with water. After 48 hours, if there is no problem, you can put the tiles.

The waterproofing of the lightweight wall is very critical, and its requirements are relatively high, otherwise it is very easy to have problems later, according to my suggestion: do two waterproofing, first use the membrane to do a waterproofing, and then use the paint to do a waterproofing. This is a more secure approach, but also a more formal approach, if your cost is too high, I suggest you consider it comprehensively.

1: To wait for 24 hours to test the water, the water test time is at least 24 hours, the test height is best to put the water flush with the door as well.

2: On the surface of the waterproof layer of the wall, a layer of net cement is smeared, and the ground can be filled with light bricks or cinders, vermiculite and other things to wipe the cement leveling.

Wait until the cement is dry before you can start tiling.

It is best to use flexible waterproof coatings for waterproof coatings, such as: asphalt oil, asphalt membrane and so on. The kind of cement is not good, and it is easy to crack after a while. This is a very painful lesson for me.

The waterproofing workflow of the bathroom is to level the ground with cement mortar once, and then do waterproofing after it is dry. Ask friends who can paste tiles immediately after waterproofing, first of all, we must make it clear that waterproofing is not just done once. The general waterproof construction should be done 2 to 3 times, and the order of waterproofing is also particular, for example, the wall should be waterproofed first and then the wall tiles should be pasted, and then the ground waterproofing should be done and then the floor tiles should be pasted.

Because the ground is often stepped on, the ground waterproof will be easy to step on if you do it first.

So when should the floor tiles be pasted after the waterproofing is done?

Under normal circumstances, after 2 to 3 times of waterproofing are all done, there will be a curing period of 5 to 7 days, so naturally, tiling must wait until after this to do.

But there are no absolutes, the curing period is up, we also need to re-test whether the waterproofing is done well, whether the leakage is leaking, which requires adding water to test for 24 hours to see if the ground water level at home has dropped, or to see if there are traces of water leakage in the downstairs neighbor's bathroom.

If there is no water leakage, then remember to use another layer of cement mortar to do a layer of waterproof protection, the purpose of which is to prevent the friction of the tiling work from damaging the surface of the waterproof layer. But if it still leaks, it means that the waterproofing has not been done thoroughly, and the waterproofing needs to be redone. Follow the first process and wait for it to dry and test, and you can lay the floor tiles without problems.
