The installation of ceramic floor tiles on concrete is a project that can be done by a homeowner on their own at a fair price and with very little difficulty, despite the fact that many people employ professional tile-setters to perform the job for them.

To successfully install floor tiles, getting ready is the most important step.

If you have a solid foundation, an organized plan, and all of the necessary tools and materials, installing floor tiles with mortar and grout is a relatively straightforward process that can be accomplished with relative ease.

The tile pattern will provide you with the required number of tiles to purchase.

Because you don't need to cut as many tiles for a grid design, it's simple to plan and put together once you get started.

Although it might be challenging to cut tiles on the diagonal, the use of diagonal tiles in smaller spaces can help make them appear larger.

Determine the size of the room, then add 15 percent for wasted space.

You might also use a tile calculator that is available online to get the actual cost and experiment with a variety of tile layouts.

Ceramic tile is fragile when it is placed directly on the ground, but it gains strength when it adheres to a level, solid surface that is free of any bumps or holes.

In most cases, tiling can be directly installed on top of a concrete slab flooring; however, if the existing floor is constructed of wood, a cement board should be used instead.

Install the cement board panels by first placing a layer of thinset mortar on the subfloor, then positioning the panels such that every 8 inches they are screwed down to the subfloor.

Following the application of fiberglass seam tape to seal the seams, thinset should be used to fill in any gaps that remain.

It is important that each of the walls is measured in the middle. 

To comb the thinset, switch to the notched side of the same trowel and move it in straight lines while maintaining the same 45-degree angle and close contact with the cement board.

Because the trowel has notches, it is simple to regulate the amount of thinset that is spread throughout the surface.
