TILES INSTALLATION STEP BY STEP PROCEDURE 1. To ensure that you have a level base from which to commence tiling, set a batten horizontally one tiles above the lowest point of fixing. Use a spirit level to make sure that the batten is set level.2. Start tiling by spreading tile adhesive with a notched trowel. Not more than a square metre should be covered with adhesive at one time. Set the first tile at the middle and work out on either side to ensure that the cuts are equal at each end. 3. Place tiles into adhesive bed using a firm twisting movement so that there is a good, even contact between tiles, adhesiveand background. To ensure that the tiles are even jointed use tiles spacer pegs. 4. Before fixing border and profile tiles check how the joints bond. If they are a different width to the main field tiles, staggered joints are preferable and will look less obvious. Use tile spacer pegs to ensure even joints. 5. Cutting curved and irregular shapes, to fit around pipework for example, mark the shape on the tile and by using tile nippers create the shape you need. Finish off using a tile file to smooth any rough edges. It is recommended that goggls are worn during cutting. 6. Tiles can be cut using a tile cutting machine. This makes cutting easy and accurate. Tile cutters are available at all good tile outlets and for hire from tool hire centres. 7. When the tiles adhesive is dry, fill the joints with grout. This should be worked into the joint flush up to the file edge. Remove any excess grout with a damp sponge before it dries. There are tools available to assist spreading the grout. 8. clean off the tile grout residue by polishing the tiles with a clean, dry cloth.
