• Tile flooring installation is not that tricky
  thing as people make a perception about it. With
  a little planning and preparation, one can do it
  without any hassles.
• Here are five preparation tips before you put the
  tiles.

1 Preparation Of The Surface Is Important

• To install tiles correctly, you need a smooth,
  dry and clean surface. Hence, you must spend
  considerable time in repairing, leveling and
  patching the surface.
• Make all uneven areas even and make the surface
  structurally sound.
• The area should be clean and free from wax,
  grease and soap scum.
• All appliances, trim or molding that may
  interfere should be removed.
• When the tiles will be installed, the door
  clearance beneath shouldnt get disturbed.

2 Plan The Layout

• You must work with proper planning to avoid any
  potential complications. It makes the
  installation smooth.
• The layout means the arrangement of tiles. It is
  easy to plan if the room is a perfect square or
  rectangle. If it is irregular in shape, then you
  need to work hard really.
• For a perfect room, take the center point and
  then make horizontal and vertical lines with
  respect to the center point.

• You need to make necessary adjustments to make
  sure that the intersection makes a perfect
  square. Now place the tiles according to the
  marking. You have to use a spacer to have uniform
  joints. You have to cut the tiles to fit the room
  as you reach the walls.
• The objective is to put the whole tiles as much
  as possible.

3 Check The Slope

1. The slope plays a significant role because it
   determines how efficiently the water flows to the
   drainage hole. If you are installing the tiles
   in-house, then you have to be very careful about
   it.
2. In case you are unable to set the right slope,
   then call some expert. He has the necessary tools
   and knowledge to fix it.

4 Put The Right Adhesive

• You should always remember that the adhesive that
  is used for tiles sets quite fast. Hence, do not
  prepare it once you are ready with everything.
• Apply a thin coat (usually a quarter of an inch)
  and fix the tiles.

5 Set The Tiles

• Once everything is set, start by installing the
  tile in the center of the room. Start with one
  grid at a time.
• These are the five essential preparation tips for
  installing floor tiles in your home.
