Tiles are used in different places in life. The most common are finishing up floors. Other areas may include bathrooms, kitchens, urinals and latrines. In all these areas, they serve different purposes. Their method of installation may be slightly different, but it is similar to a large extent.

The first thing is to acquire the necessary materials. Someone consults a mason in charge who comes with the necessary tools for use. The Mason then writes a quotation of the necessary things to be bought. These include cement; preferably white cement and tiles. During tile purchase, several factors may be put into consideration.

The tiles vary on a scale according to their cost. From the cheapest to the most expensive. The buyer should purchase them as per his or her ability.

When tiles are used to warm a house, wooden tiles are appropriate since they are poor conductors of heat they help in heating a home. Bathrooms require tiles with a rough surface due to the slippery nature of the surface. Banking halls require significant sized tiles while tiles in the kitchen and bathrooms are small hence a person has to be well informed on the type of tiles to purchase.

When all the materials are available, the actual placing of tiles begins. The first step is to ensure the surface tiles are being put on is relatively rough. If the surface was cemented, there is a great need to make it rough again using any means available. Next, a thick mixture of water and cement is applied to the surface, and then the tiles are gently placed. From there only careful measurements are observed so as to keep tiles aligned. Some tiles may require cutting or slicing so as to fit in small regions around the wall.

The mixture is pasted to the rough-surfaced walls or the floor. The floors are then placed on the mixture where they stick. After these several actions are undertaken. The first one is to wipe off the excess mixture that might have been applied. This is done using a piece of cloth by scrubbing the surface of tiles and the edges. It is also done as quickly as possible before the cement solidifies on tiles and becomes hard to remove later.

Beauty patterns of tiles should be observed. All tiles meant for beauty come with a predefined pattern, and when placing the tiles, it should be noted so that the goal is achieved. The beauty target set also depends very much on the creativity of a Mason in charge.

Tiles are a wonderful option to furnish and finish up a house. Installation of tiles, however, are delicate procedure and should be done carefully and cautiously. In the end, the beauty that comes with tiles is appreciated by everyone.
