New formulations, advanced installation systems, and a host of “plug-and-play” gimmicks make keeping pace with the things we put into our houses a constant battle. But ceramic tile is different. Laying tile is a very popular DIY project for a number of reasons, but the primary appeal is that tile is a manageable material that yields beautiful, long-lasting floors for a relatively small investment. Because of the nature of the material and the installation process, you can work at your own pace. If you make an error, it is not difficult to back up and re-do the work.Here is information that shows you, step-by-step, exactly how to work with tile. Layout, installing subbases, cutting and fitting, setting, grouting, and sealing are just some of the techniques you will learn.Table of Contents:IntroductionFloor Tiling Tools & MaterialsEvaluating & Preparing FloorsProject: Remove Floor CoveringsProject: Remove UnderlaymentProject: Install Cement BoardProject: Ceramic Floor TileProject: Stone & Mosaic Tile FloorProject: Glass Mosaic Tile FloorAbout the Author:Mark Johanson has written and edited more than 150 books on home improvement and repair, woodworking, and gardening.
