Tile laying
Introduction to laying large tiles
Choosing the right tiles for your home is an important decision. Large tiles are becoming increasingly popular and are used in many modern flats and houses. They give any room an elegant and contemporary look. However, laying large tiles requires specialised techniques and tools. In this comprehensive guide, we will tell you everything you need to know about the art of laying large tiles.
Tools and materials required for laying large tiles
To lay large tiles professionally, you need certain tools and materials. These include a tile cutter, a notched trowel, a rubber trowel, a tile levelling system and tile adhesive. A tile cutter is essential for cutting the tiles to the right size and shape. The notched trowel is used to apply the tile adhesive and ensure an even layer. The rubber mallet helps to spread the tiles evenly on the floor and remove air bubbles. The tile levelling system is particularly useful to ensure that the tiles are laid on a level surface. Vacuum lifters with foam rubber suction cups are ideal for transport and safe laying. An installation and laying device with a tilting unit is ideal for floor and wall tiles.
