Well, the truth is that wood-look ceramic tiles have become increasingly popular in recent years. And it\u2019s easy to see why. As much class and sophistication wood flooring can bring to a home, the truth is that this is not an easy to maintain material. If wood is not refinished regularly, it tends to scratch and gets an ugly wear pattern. It\u2019s not waterproof, and any accidental spills can cause significant damage and permanent stains. Moreover, wood-like tiles don\u2019t dent, and creak as real wood flooring does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s just one problem, though: installing wood look tile comes with some unique challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, here\u2019s how to lay tile that looks like wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\" id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-ac856b89-827d-432d-b336-ba4038342d32\"><span class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-ac856b89-827d-432d-b336-ba4038342d32\" id=\"hs-cta-ac856b89-827d-432d-b336-ba4038342d32\"><!--[if lte IE 8]><div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div><![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/6786297\/ac856b89-827d-432d-b336-ba4038342d32\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" id=\"hs-cta-img-ac856b89-827d-432d-b336-ba4038342d32\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/6786297\/ac856b89-827d-432d-b336-ba4038342d32.png\"  alt=\"* Do you want to get the definitive guide to cutting and laying tiles?

So, given their aesthetic appeal and benefits, the demand for wood-look porcelain tile installation has probably increased in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing you may have noticed about wood tile is that it\u2019s a bit more troublesome than other types of ceramic tiles. Here\u2019s why installing wood-look tile can be so frustrating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wood-look Tile Is Not Flat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ve probably realized this already, but wood tiles are not flat. They sure look so, but if you look closely, you will notice that the centre is higher than it should be. That\u2019s why when you install wood tile flooring in an offset pattern, the centre is next to the end of the next tile, which creates lippage \u2013 or otherwise known as the most frustrating problem an installer has to deal with during a project. But don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ll talk about how to lay tile that looks like wood without lippage, in a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reduce Lippage by Prepping the Floor Surface Correctly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You know that when it comes to installing tile flooring, flatness is the most important aspect. You also know that if you set the tiles at different levels, you risk creating lippage. The question is: how can you avoid this problem when wood-look tiles have high centers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Imagen2.jpg\" alt=\"Prestige Floors\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\"><em>Source: Prestige Floors<\/em><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>As a rule of thumb, make sure that the subfloor has no more than a 3mm deviation in 3 metres. In other words, the floor has to be perfectly flat. It may seem a bit unrealistic to make the surface perfectly flat, but there are some tips you can follow if you want to learn how to lay tile that looks like wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find Any Dips or Peaks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Wood-look tiles are already uneven, so any dips or peaks in the floor surface will accentuate the lippage even further. Using a chalk line, stretch it across the room and look for any variations in the floor\u2019s height. Mark them with tape or a pencil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Calculate the Depth of the Dip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Use your trowel to determine how deep the dip in the tile is. If it\u2019s deeper than your trowel notch, then use a bigger one.<\/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<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clean the Surface Area<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Clear the floor of any debris and dirt. Vacuum the floor or use water and a sponge to clean the surface area and remove dust particles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ensure You Get the Right Mortar Consistency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The secret to a successful tile installation, whether we\u2019re talking about ceramic or wood-look tile flooring, is getting the right mortar consistency. A perfect blended mortar mix will help you achieve a strong bond and, therefore, a long-lasting installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Imagen3-1.jpg\" alt=\"RUBIMIX\" width=\"351\" height=\"527\"><br><br>We\u2019re not going to hold a plea about how cement works and cures. You know that already. But, we\u2019re going to give you hopefully some new tips that could help you get the right mortar thickness. For example, you should start by pouring water into the bucket first. That way, you reduce the number of airborne particles. We\u2019ve seen a lot of installers doing it the other way around. But, when you add the powder first, then the water, it will be difficult to mix it properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another tip that can make a big difference is following the recommended amount of time to mix mortar. Sure, stirring for ten minutes can seem like a lot, but it will ensure the best results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[TIP: Are you mixing adhesive properly? Read our pro guide for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/mortar-mix\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">getting the right adhesive mix<\/a><\/strong>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Level the floor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the subfloor is uneven, use of a levelling compound would be advised to ensure the flattest surface possible to tile onto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use a Tile Levelling System<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Imagen4-1.jpg\" alt=\"Delta\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Making sure that there are no peaks or valleys in the floor surface is paramount for any successful tile installation process. But, in the case of wood tiles, even when the floor is perfectly flat, the final result can still have a bit of lippage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/categories\/leveling-systems\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>tile levelling system<\/strong><\/a> can help you manage this problem better than other similar tools. Due to its design, it will interlock the tiles, ensuring that the surface remains flat while the mortar dries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/categories\/spacers-for-ceramic-tile-installation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tile spacers<\/a><\/strong> are another essential tool that can help you achieve that perfect finish in any wood look tile flooring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Avoid Doing a Full Offset<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned already, offset patterns are the most problematic. But, what can you do when the client has his mind set on an offset design? Well, you can at least avoid doing a 50% offset, where the middle of the wood-look tile is perfectly aligned with the grout joint of the next row.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s surefire way to get the maximum level of lippage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, unless the client is dead set on this type of offset pattern, set the limit at 33% or the tile manufacturers recommendation. In fact, the smaller the offset, the better the chances of avoiding lippage problems when installing wood tile flooring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Lay Tile That Looks Like Wood: Tips and Tricks<\/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\/Imagen5-1.jpg\" alt=\"wood tile\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So, you\u2019ve filled every dip and smoothened every peak in the floor surface and made it as flat as possible. You even have a trusted tile levelling system to help you during the installation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What should the next step be, you might ask yourself?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some tips and tricks that can help you learn how to lay tile that looks like wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choose the Right adhesive<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A medium bed adhesive and a 12mm x 12mm notch trowel are ideal for large format tiles. Sure, you will have to use more adhesive and, sure, you will probably have to choose a premium brand, but this is not the time to be stingy. The right tools and materials can not only ensure proper wood-look tile installation, but they will also make your job easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pay Attention to the Orientation of the Tiles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Imagen6-1.jpg\" alt=\"tiles\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One simple tip that can aid you in the installation process is running wood-look tile across the room first. Start with two rows and then run them from one end to the other of the room. Use a tile levelling system to make sure that each row is perfectly flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you ensure that these first rows are aligned and flat, you can continue your work, completing one row at a time. Take your time \u2013 wood-look tile is not about speed but scrupulousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consider the Grout Joint Size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve seen a lot of professional installers who use a thin grout joint when installing wood-like tile, and then a blending colour that mimics real hardwood. But let\u2019s just think about this approach for a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rubi.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Imagen7-1.jpg\" alt=\"wood tiles\" width=\"700\" height=\"511\"><br>If the tiles are not levelled evenly, then putting just a small amount of grout joint is only going to make the lippage more evident than it already was. A wider grout joint, on the other hand, can help you minimize the asymmetry between tiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our recommendation is that you use a grout joint that is at least 2mm. Keep in mind that this is the lowest you should go. Sure, you can go lower than that, but an extremely thin grout joint is only going to cause your problems during installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Wood-like tile flooring is the new hot trend. But, if you\u2019ve worked with this type of ceramic tile before, you know how demanding it can be. Hopefully, this guide about how to lay tile that looks like wood will make the process easier for you. Rest assured that in time, you will get acquainted with the particularities of wood tile flooring and installation won\u2019t cause you as many problems as it does right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What other problems have you encountered when working with wood-like tile and how did you fix them?
