Tiles will swell due to temperature changes, and the cement used will dry out after applying, and produce a force. If the seamless paving, tiles will be empty drums, deformation, cracking, chipping and other issues.

All tiles have some degree of error in length, straightness, and straightness. These errors can lead to suture is not straight, unsightly and other issues. Appropriate leave seams ensure that patchwork seams are neat, avoiding other problems due to tile size deviations.

Paving tiles is a very rigorous job. Technical requirements for paving workers are very strict. Construction process inevitably there will be some errors, keep the seam can adjust the tiling operation of the overall effect.

The tile retention and paving is easy to adjust the spacing of bricks in accordance with the size of the real area, so that the whole brick is used as much as possible in the corner of the house. It is both beautiful and time-saving.

Now there are "seamless tiles" products on the market, but the it can only ensure that not completely seamless. In practical, the technical requirements of seamless tiles are higher, and the control of cross stitches and wrong platforms is more stringent.

There is no uniform standard for the size of seam. In general, rustic tiles are recommended to leave a seam of 3-5mm better, and home tiles can be left around 3mm. Nowadays, there is a cross on the market that is specially used for tile joints. The width is 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, 5mm, etc. The use of a cross to leave seams can ensure that the seams of the tiles are straight and the gaps are uniform in size.

1. During the construction, there will be some mistakes in cutting the tiles.
2. Like the shape of the house, if the house has many corners and arcs, the loss is relatively large.
3. The worker's skill level will have a certain impact on the loss of the tiles.
4. The size of the house space does not match the size of the tiles, need to cut.
5. Damage to the tile during transportation and handling, increasing the abnormal loss of the tile.
6. Improper construction can also cause loss of tiles.

The loss of tiles is mainly related to the following aspects:
1. It is related to the paving scheme. Generally speaking, the diamond paving method will be more costly than the direct paving method;
2. The shape of the wall is related, the more regular the wall, relatively speaking, the loss of the tile is small, the more the corners of the wall, the greater the loss of the tile;
3. It is related to the worker's proficiency. The higher the worker's skill level, the smaller the loss will be, and the greater will be the opposite;

The overall loss of tiles under normal conditions is generally between 5-10%, therefore, proposed to increase the amount of the loss is most appropriate in 5-10% when buying tiles.

The normal loss, because the size of the room and the size of ceramic tiles may do not match, so need to cut the tiles. Generally speaking, the overall attrition rate of tiles is normal between 3%-10%. Unusual losses are mainly caused by improper purchase and construction. Tile quality is poor, the possibility of breakage in the construction of big loss inevitable. In addition, workers’ paving techniques are also key, and poor technology is also one of the main causes of wear and tear.

1. Accurately measure paving area in advance. If there are many corners and arcs in the house then the loss is relatively large, it is recommended to purchase more than 5-6 boxes tiles. If the house is square can matches the full size of the floor, you can only buy 1-2 boxes of tiles. Ordinary 10-30 square meters of the room, better selection of tiles below 600 * 600mm size of the tile, if more than 30 square feet, better purchase of more than 800 * 800mm size of the tile.
2.Carefully select decoration companies and workers, and the skill level of workers will also have a certain impact on losses. It is best for the owner to supervise during the laying process. Inferior tiles can have chromatic aberrations and irregularities that are prone to problems.

Firstly, glazed tiles have more advantages in anti-fouling performance. The surface patterns are diversified, and the style is also varied. It can provide more abundant and personalized options for the owners of chosen. This is the reason why glazed tiles are popular.
Secondly, the anti-slip properties are very good, and the surface of the product is also easier to clean. With the continuous upgrading of the glazing process and the improvement of the wear resistance of the glazed tile products, the current surface of the glazed ceramic tile is Morse. Hardness can generally reach 5-7.

If the tile's water absorption is <0.5%, there is no need for water soaking when laying tiles. And some ceramic material wall & floor tiles for kitchen and bathroom use, the water absorption rate is > 10%, so it is necessary to soak water (some porcelain material water absorption rate is less than 0.5%, also no need to soak the water)

The entire tile should be completely immersed in water. Generally, a large basin will be prepared. But there are also some irresponsible construction teams that stack tiles and use water pipes. Sprinkling water on top can only soak the tiles, and do not allow the tiles to "drink enough".

Because of the different water absorption rate of different tiles, there is no specific standard. But the end result is that the tiles absorb enough water and no more air bubbles. With high water absorption, it will take longer time to soak. In the rainy season, the time is also shortened due to the humid air. When the weather is dry, the time will increase correspondingly.

When the tiles are placed in the basin, they must be glazed surface upwards, tile body facing down. If the glazed surface face down that’s will easy make the corners bump into each other. When the tiles are pulled out of the basin, the ground is to be placed on a cardboard box, and the tiles body are also placed back against the wall and the surface upwards. If it is reversed, it is the glazed sharp corners, because the corners of the tiles are brittle and easily damaged.
