- Uncoupling of tiles:
Uncoupling membranes are the excellent source to allow the alongside movement of the tiles. Uncoupling membranes help the tiles to bear the stress of the weather. So whether it is hot or humid weather if you have the uncoupling membrane, your tiles will be most likely to bear the stress.
Furthermore, the use of uncoupling membranes allows the owners to save the cost of additional plywood or the cement floor. Purchasing the uncoupling membranes are the efficient source of saving the time and money.
- Choose the best mortar:
The mortar plays the most critical role in the whole tile installation procedure. The most commonly used type of mortar is the unmodified and modified thinset. The use of modified thin-set is considered ideal if you want the mortar from being dry out. The modified this set is the ideal choice if the surface is porous. However, in the case of a non-porous surface, the best possible choice is unmodified thinset. Furthermore, if you want to avoid the drying out of the mortar, all you need is to damp the subfloor before application of mortar.
- Protect your walls:
The protection of the painted walls is as much crucial as the overall tiling procedure. If you want to avoid the trouble of repainting, then you should always staple the swath of sill gasket foam on the walls. The stapling of gasket would not only protect the wall from damages but also save the effort of cleaning. The sill also keeps the thinset from the walls, and it also helps to retain the gap for a highly reliable tile installation.
