How big a gap should be left when the all glazed floor tiles in the living room 800 are paved.

800 full glazed floor tiles should leave a gap of 2-3 mm when paving the living room.

Tile paving method.

1. Ground treatment.

Before laying floor tiles, ground treatment is required, and level measurement must be completed, so that the slope of the ground can be understood and the effect of paving can be better controlled. Then, according to the floor area and the size of the floor tiles, determine the number of tiles that need to be used for each row and column.

2. Spread cement mortar.

After the ground treatment is completed, it is necessary to lay a layer of mortar on the ground, the ratio of mortar to water is 3:1, forming a semi-dry layer, and fill the surface with a shovel and plastering knife, the general mortar thickness is 3-4 cm.

3. Uniform paving.

After smoothing the mortar, use the cement mortar diluted into a 1:1 ratio to wipe the back of the floor tiles, and then evenly pave the ground with mortar in advance, and confirm that the floor tiles are evenly paved before proceeding to the next step.

4. Trimming and wiping.

Use a rubber hammer and a level to check the hollowing and flattening of the floor tiles, and after the whole floor is paved, confirm that the color and texture are correct, you can use caulk the next day to fill the caulk.

All tiles must be treated with seams when they are paved. There are three main reasons for this:

1. There is a size error in the tile If there is no seam treatment, the small deviation may affect the straightness of the final paved brick joint after accumulation and superposition, thereby affecting the paving effect (the size deviation within the allowable range of the national standard is called the error, and the quality problem beyond the standard is the standard).

2. There is an error in the construction of the tile paving is completed manually, and in the process of paving, there will be some deviations, leaving no seams, which will also lead to poor straightness of the final gap, affecting the beauty of the paving.

3. There is thermal expansion and contraction of ceramic tiles in the process of temperature and humidity change, which may cause the contraction and expansion of ceramic tiles, although it is very onlookers, but if there is no seam, it may also lead to tile cracking, thereby artificially reducing the service life of ceramic tiles.

The size of the joints should be considered according to the characteristics of the tile and the design effect.
