Tiling in Petroșani

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.

What to check before hiring a tiling

Check the tradesperson's reviews and ask for photos of previous work
Buy materials with a 10-15% surplus over calculated surface area to account for cutting waste

Don't rush the adhesive or grout curing time — follow the recommended setting times
Choose rectified tiles if you want minimal grout lines and a modern look
Check surface flatness before installation to avoid unpleasant surprises

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to remove the old tiles before installation?

Generally, removing old tiles is recommended to ensure a solid base and prevent cracking. Tiling over existing tiles is possible, but only if they're fully bonded and the surface is flat.

What adhesive is used for tiling?

Different adhesives are used depending on tile type and application area: flexible adhesive for wet zones (bathroom, kitchen), standard adhesive for dry areas, and special adhesive for large-format or exterior tiles. A knowledgeable tiler will select the right product.

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 Petroșani?

Yes, most tilers in Petroșani 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.
