If you decide on a DIY project when working on a tiling project, some issues to keep in mind include:
Tile Selection
You can choose the Tile to use depending on your budget, color, and personal taste. The main objective would be to find an option that matches the style of the rest of the room.
Prepping the Room
You should ensure that the floor is clean and you have a smooth and level surface to work on. This will also mean developing a plan on how to place the tiles. Starting from the middle and working your way outwards is recommended.
Choosing a Pattern
Patterns in this case can refer to the design of the tiles in terms of their appearance, or how you plan to install your tiles. You can go for diagonal over vertical placement, for example, when working with small wood tile slabs.
Choose the Right Adhesive
It’s essential to use the right adhesive when you’re working on a tile installation. If you plan on applying cement, it’s essential to ensure that it’s evenly spread across the surface before placement. You can also choose to opt for the DIY slip and stick tile alternatives.
