    It is best to lay the wall bricks first, but first lay the floor tiles, the floor tiles are laid at least for a period of time after the paving is idle, the bricks can not be stepped on, you can not ask the workers to pave the wall tiles, if you do not dry and solid, the floor tiles are not flat. And if you stick the floor tiles first, there will be cement and sand falling on the floor tiles when the wall tiles are pasted, and the hardness of the sand is large, and the surface of the floor tiles will be scratched during construction; In addition, it is not easy to do hygiene; After the floor tiles are applied, the floor drain is opened. The cement slurry flow is easy to enter the floor drain.

    Cement can be solidified even if it is soaked in water, and it will be troublesome if the pipeline is blocked.

    Steps for wall tiles and floor tiles:

    Step 1] Measure a horizontal line at any elevation around the wall before you can start to paste the wall tiles, but you have to control the order of the wall tiles, so as not to cause more times to cut the bricks. It can improve the efficacy without hindering the aesthetics.

    Step 2] After pasting the wall tiles, only the floor tiles are paved, control the drainage slope, pay attention to the sanitary napkin and do not reverse flow (flow to the door) and pay attention to the protection of waterproofing, and carry out the water off test after pasting to ensure that there is no leakage.

    Step 3] Cleaning, steel wool balls can be used to clean the wall.

    Precautions for wall tiles and floor tiles:

    Precautions 1: The base layer should be cleaned before tiling, such as lime paste, latex paint, wallpaper and other decorations on the wall, or there is dirt on the ground, it must be cleaned up, otherwise the cement mortar and the base layer are not firmly bonded; In addition, if there are cracks in the wall itself, it should be properly treated before tiling, so as to avoid cracking or falling off the wall tiles due to the enlargement of the cracks in the basic structure in the future; In addition, for the ground and wall with too large a difference in flatness or verticality, cement mortar should be used for leveling.

    Precautions 2: Sticking to the floor tiles should be pasted from the inside to the outside, if the ground has a slope or a floor drain, attention should be paid to finding the slope according to the drainage direction; The wall tiles should be paved from the bottom up, and for the sake of aesthetics, the bottom bricks should be pasted later. After the wall tiles are pasted, press the floor tiles, and when there is half a brick, it should be placed below as much as possible.

    In addition, a wall should not be pasted to the top at one time to prevent the tile from falling due to its large weight.

    Note 3: Wall tiles have a high moisture content, and this characteristic must be taken into account when pasting. The base layer should be fully watered and moistened before tiling, and the tiles should also be soaked in water for at least 20 minutes before use.

    Otherwise, the moisture in the mortar will be quickly absorbed by the dry base layer and the tile and quickly condense, which will affect its bonding fastness. Wall tiles also absorb moisture from the cement, making it impossible for the cement to act as an adhesive. In addition, the water absorption rate of each brand of wall tiles is also different, which depends on experience.

    A lightning refresh can solve your renovation problems for you.

    Generally, the floor tiles in the bathroom are laid from the innermost part and slowly extend to the outside to prevent the loosening of the floor tiles caused by walking on the freshly laid floor tiles.

Best location – due east and southeast.

The bathroom should not be located in the center of the house, and the ideal location should be in the side area of the house, preferably due east and southeast. Because these two directions belong to wood, water can produce wood, and the water vapor in the bathroom can produce the five elements wood gas in the east and southeast of Wangdong. At the same time, these two orientations are also usually the sunny part of the house, helping to keep the room dry. >>>More
