Wrong Trowel Size<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/RUBI-BLOG-1.png\" alt=\"RUBI Trowel \"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The size of your trowel needs to match the size of the tile. The larger the tile you are using, the deeper the adhesive bed needs to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To create the deeper adhesive bed you need a trowel with deep notches. The deeper notches allow for adjusting while laying tile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure the adhesive you buy has phrasing like \u201clarge tile\u201d or \u201clarge format\u201d on it. This adhesive is thicker and holds the larger tiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a general rule, a 12mm trowel works for tiles up to 400mm. Tiles bigger than this need a 15mm notch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that you will go through your adhesive faster because you are using more. A 20Kg bag should cover approx. 4-5 square metres using a 12mm notch. That same 20kg bag should cover approx. 3-4 square metres using a 15mm trowel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Cracking the Tile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When cutting tile, take some precautions to make sure you do not break them. Too many broken tiles will become wasteful and expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/RUBI-BLOG-2.jpg\" alt=\"diamond blade \"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/dont-break-it-how-to-drill-through-tiles-in-7-easy-steps\/\">diamond wet saw<\/a> is the best method for cutting tile. A diamond saw blade is abrasive and not toothed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before cutting, mark the tile with a pencil. You can use a regular lead or wax pencil for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the tile against the fence and line up the line with the blade. You will need to wait for the water to flow after turning the saw on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use a slow even pressure while making your cut. As you get to the end of your cut push the two halves together. Holding the tiles stops them from breaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you hear the blade slow down as your cutting then you are pushing too fast. The harder the material you\u2019re cutting is, the slower you need to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Subfloor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/RUBI-BLOG-3.jpg\" alt=\"subfloor \"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The subfloor is the surface that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/floor-layers-explained-4120153\">tile gets installed<\/a> on. You need a flat, even, and strong surface. If you do not have this your tile will sag and crack in places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your subfloor is not suitable put down 6 or 12mm cement board first. Then lay your tile on top of the board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have old vinyl flooring that is suitable you can tile right over it. This is assuming that the floor is thick enough to support the tile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look at the subfloor and determine how far apart the floor framing is this will help determine the thickness of cement board that is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that you are raising the height of the floor when adding cement board. You\u2019ll need to raise the vanity and extend the toilet ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Laid the Tile Out Wrong<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Laying tile in a diagonal pattern requires special planning. If your tile is square you can measure 45-degree angles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How you lay tiles changes when they are diamond and not square. Start by centering the tiles. Line up the corners with a single layout line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Build the design out around this first measurement. Check your lines with a straightedge as you work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\" id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-068b8418-9813-4016-a3ab-03d8c9d2771b\"><span class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-068b8418-9813-4016-a3ab-03d8c9d2771b\" id=\"hs-cta-068b8418-9813-4016-a3ab-03d8c9d2771b\"><!--[if lte IE 8]><div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div><![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/6786297\/068b8418-9813-4016-a3ab-03d8c9d2771b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" id=\"hs-cta-img-068b8418-9813-4016-a3ab-03d8c9d2771b\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" height=\"619\" width=\"191\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/6786297\/068b8418-9813-4016-a3ab-03d8c9d2771b.png\"  alt=\"New call-to-action\"\/><\/a><\/span><script charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/js.hscta.net\/cta\/current.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> hbspt.cta.load(6786297, '068b8418-9813-4016-a3ab-03d8c9d2771b', {\"useNewLoader\":\"true\",\"region\":\"na1\"}); <\/script><\/span><!-- end HubSpot Call-to-Action Code -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Wrong Grout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The wrong grout or grout done wrong can ruin the look of your DIY tiling project. You want clean and even grout lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/RUBI-BLOG-4.jpg\" alt=\"RUBI mix\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix your grout with a trowel until you have a peanut butter consistency. Using a drill or paddle will introduce air which weakens the holding strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure to let the grout rest for 10 minutes before using it. Skipping this step will result in a weaker grout that will crack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. You Didn\u2019t Prepare<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to clean and prep your surface before you tile. Remove any grease, dirt, or fingerprints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t do this step, the adhesive won\u2019t stick to the wall. This is an issue most common when tiling bathroom or kitchen walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use a water and mild dish soap mixture to clean the walls. If you have a lot of stains or buildup use a paint deglosser or abrasive pad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. No Backer Board<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/RUBI-BLOG-5.jpg\" alt=\"RUBI backer board \"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are tiling in an area with water you need to use a backboard. The backer board stays stiff and prevents water from seeping into where it shouldn\u2019t be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cement board is the most durable type of backboard. It is cement and sand and then reinforced with fiberglass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are tiling around a sink water-resistant drywall works well. It can resist the occasional splashing but not constant moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Bad Silicone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When tiling in your bathroom one of the final steps is to silicone the internal corners. Caulk a straight line down the corners and along the edge of the bath and shower tray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Buying the Supplies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to buy the right silicone meant for kitchen and bathroom use. This type has additives that prevent mold and mildew from growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will also need to buy the right color. Tile stores carry a vast selection of silicone colours to match grout colours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applying the Silicone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Spend the extra money and buy a high-quality caulking gun. This will give you a smooth line of silicone. Cheaper guns will cause your line to be too thick and too thin in places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Line the area you intend to silicone with masking tape. This will give you a clean line on either side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut the nozzle on your silicone to match the width of your gap. This will make the line of silicone match the size you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you lay a line of silicone, wet your finger and wipe away the excess, a mixture of washing up liquid and water work well. The final step is to remove the masking tape while the caulk is still wet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Not Buying Enough Tile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/RUBI-BLOG-6.jpg\" alt=\"tile\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The main reason for not <a href=\"https:\/\/dengarden.com\/home-improvement\/5-Steps-to-Calculating-How-Much-Tile-You-Need\">buying enough tile<\/a> is because you failed to plan ahead. Take the time to make the proper measurements and then check them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by measuring the length and width of the area you plan to tile. Multiply your measurements by each other i.e: 2.5m x 3.2m = 8 Square metres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This gives you the square metres. Divide this total by the square metres that comes in the box of tile i.e: 1.44 square metres per box would be 8 divided by 1.44 = 5.55 boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This number is how many boxes it will take to cover the floor. Next, you need to calculate the overage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Multiply your room\u2019s square metres by 10% and then add this to the room\u2019s number. Then divide by a single box square metres. i.e: 8 x 10% = 0.8, 8 + 0.8 = 8.8 square metres, 8.8 divided by 1.44 = 6.11 boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This new number is how many boxes you need to buy. The extra boxes will cover cuts, breakage, and waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Laying Floor Tiles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step in laying floor tiles is to have the right equipment. You will need a trowel with the right sized grooves for spreading the adhesive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will need the right diamond saw to cut the tile without breaking it. Then laying the tile you\u2019ll need the right base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prep your tile by buying enough and laying out the pattern before you start. Once you place the tile you\u2019ll need to grout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Work your grout so that it gets the right consistency and doesn\u2019t have air bubbles. Then follow the steps to clean up the grout so your finished tiling looks beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get ready for your next tiling project with one of these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/sections\/diamond-blades\">premium diamond blades<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\" id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-8bd02e8f-ec71-4a41-87b9-1d9822cf82d9\"><span class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-8bd02e8f-ec71-4a41-87b9-1d9822cf82d9\" id=\"hs-cta-8bd02e8f-ec71-4a41-87b9-1d9822cf82d9\"><!--[if lte IE 8]><div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div><![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/6786297\/8bd02e8f-ec71-4a41-87b9-1d9822cf82d9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" id=\"hs-cta-img-8bd02e8f-ec71-4a41-87b9-1d9822cf82d9\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" height=\"628\" width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/6786297\/8bd02e8f-ec71-4a41-87b9-1d9822cf82d9.png\"  alt=\"New call-to-action\"\/><\/a><\/span><script charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/js.hscta.net\/cta\/current.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> hbspt.cta.load(6786297, '8bd02e8f-ec71-4a41-87b9-1d9822cf82d9', {\"useNewLoader\":\"true\",\"region\":\"na1\"}); <\/script><\/span><!-- end HubSpot Call-to-Action Code -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year alone, homeowners had over 63 million square metres of tile installed in homes in the United Kingdom.
