Edge Bathroom Wall
Questions about the placement of bathroom floor tiles?
I'll put bathroom tiles in my bathroom, but I have some questions before you start. 1. Can I put new tiles over the existing floor, which is the vinyl floor? "Or should I remove first? 2. If I have to remove the vinyl floor I have to add cement panel? Or you can set the tile right over what is on the vinyl floor? 3. I ended up along the floor that I would like to join, I lay the tile to the wall or can I put a space between the wall and the edge tile? Is it then the grout into the space between the wall and the edge tile?
really * can * install ceramic tile over vinyl floor, if the vinyl is in good shape and not raise or bubbles. you should use a thinset thinset mutliflex instead of a standard ceramic tiles to stick. Now this only works if the vinyl is more specific. if the wood, then a base coat is needed. if the vinyl is in poor condition, pull upward. in case of doubt as to who is quality, pull up. 1 / 4 "or 1 / 2" Hardibacker or are their durarock options for the subfloor. MULTIFLEX use a thinset to adhere to vinyl or wood floor and screw the plate for every 6 inches. if your floor is a concrete slab do not bother with the base layer, only tile directly over concrete. leave a little space of your tile on the wall, then install the base and / or shoe molding. grouting the space between wall tile and would be a waste of time and the grout. do not bother, the base will cover it. I agree with the 1 / 8 "grout joint. A much her best to greater participation. take into account the rules thinset: a mosaic of up to 12 "requires a 3 / 8" thinset notch a tile 16 "to 18" need a 1 / 2 "first class, and anything over 18" requires a 3 / 4 "first. This ensures there is no thinset adhesive failures. good lucky!
