Tiling in Macea

About this service

Properly laid tiling means not just a beautiful look but a durable, easy-to-maintain surface for years. The specialist prepares and levels the substrate, applies the right adhesive, lays tiles straight and level, cuts precisely around sockets and corners, and finishes the joints with water-resistant grout. The waterproofing of a bathroom and the resistance of a floor to traffic and moisture depend on correct installation. An experienced tiler recommends the right materials, calculates the quantities needed, and delivers work with even grout lines and tidy corners.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right grout size?

Grout width depends on tile type: 2-3mm for rectified tiles, 3-5mm for standard tiles. Grout color can contrast or complement the tiles. In wet areas, epoxy grout is recommended for better moisture and mold resistance.

Does the tiler also remove old tiles in Macea?

Yes, most tilers in Macea also offer old tile removal, either included or as a separate line item in the quote. Clarify this when requesting your estimate.

What if the surface isn't flat?

If the wall or floor isn't flat, a leveling screed or plaster layer must be applied before tiling. An uneven surface can lead to cracked tiles or uneven grout lines.

Can I tile myself?

It's technically possible, but proper tiling requires specialized tools (tile cutter, tile spacers, laser level) and experience. Common mistakes include imprecise cuts and uneven grout lines, which significantly affect the final look.

How long should I wait before using the bathroom after tiling?

Standard adhesive cures in 24-48 hours and grout in 24 hours. Avoid wetting the tiled area for at least 24 hours. Silicone joints take 12-24 hours to cure.

How do I clean tiles after installation?

Immediately after grouting, remove excess grout with a damp sponge. After a few hours, wipe residue with a dry cloth. After 24-48 hours, a more thorough cleaning with neutral detergents can be done.
