The knowledge of tiles crevice what you don’t know

In the process of decoration, wall tiles, floor tiles laying and pasting links are essential, but after the exquisite tiles laying, you will always find many ugly cracks. Why do these gaps exist? What are the requirements for them, how should they be handled and how to clean them?

It is necessary for tiles design to leave gaps, but many people only know one thing. Why do we need to leave gaps in the process of laying tiles price? First of all, marble tiles heat transfer effect is good, then there is a more prominent problem of thermal expansion and cold shrinkage. In most parts of China, the temperature varies greatly in four seasons, so the wood tiles seam can prevent the later cracking, bulging and other phenomena. Secondly, there are certain differences in the production process of polished tiles. Gaps can be adjusted at any time. Finally, workers will also have errors in the construction process, and can also be adjusted at any time during the process of sewing.

Because the heat transfer effect of different types of tiles are different, as well as the local temperature and climate varies greatly, mostly with the size of wood marble tiles gap has no unified standard. The size of the gap should be determined according to the degree of thermal expansion and shrinkage of cement tiles and the temperature and climate differences between indoor and outdoor environments. In general, the kitchen and bathroom wall tiles gap are about 1-1.5 mm, the gap between flooring tiles is generally between 1.5-2 mm. Depending on the situation.

Commonly used caulking materials are white cement, beauty sealant, sealant and so on. Each material has its own characteristics. According to the different quality of tiles and personal preferences, choose the appropriate sealant material. It is important to pay attention to the effect of the white cement and putty powder in the traditional filling material, but it is easy to blacken and mouldy for a long time, and it is difficult to clean and maintain later. Special treatment in special places, such as bathroom and kitchen where water is often used, requires the use of waterproof sealants. After laying the tiles for 24 hours, the filling steps are started.

After sealant treatment, all the materials are dry, and then wipe the tiles surface with soft materials like sponge and rag. At ordinary times, we should also pay more attention to keeping indoor air relatively dry. During the cleaning process, detergent such as cleanser and soap can be properly selected to make tiles and crevice more luster.

Types and advantages and disadvantages of tiles

There are many classification methods of tile, each kind of tiles design have its own advantages and disadvantages. In the process of choosing floor tiles, it is not only to consider the shape and pattern of tiles, but also to understand the use and material of different home tiles, and to verify the quality of the selected  wall tiles through various methods.

Tiles are classified according to their materials, uses and technological characteristics. According to the production process, it can be divided into full body tiles, polished tiles, mosaics, glazed tiles and polished marble tiles. According to the function of floor tiles, it can be divided into floor tiles, wall tiles and line tiles. According to the water absorbing ability of tiles, it can be divided into ceramic tiles, and porcelain tiles. According to the tile application occasions, it can be divided into inner wall tiles, floor tiles, outdoor wall tiles and square tiles. According to the radioactivity of tiles, it can be divided into A grade, B grade, and C grade. According to the forming process of tiles, it can be divided into dry pressing tiles, extrusion molding tiles and plastic forming tiles.

The general tiles, also called the porcelain tile, is the same material color in the opposite side, the surface is not glazed, the water absorbability is poor, the scope of application is wide, it is suitable for the place where the aisles and halls are more obvious, and the wall is less used. Glazed tiles have been treated with glazed surface, with rich colors and patterns, good antifouling effect and convenient cleaning. It can be used in kitchen and the bathroom. Polished tiles, the full body after polishing, smooth surface, high hardness, relatively wear-resistant, but not slippery, so It can be used in the bathroom and kitchen.

The polished marble tiles are polishing but not polished, with a mirror-like finish and the highest hardness, and can be used in living rooms, walkways and bedrooms. Mosaic is made up of many small tiles. It is acid and alkali resistant. It is not easy to seep and break easily. Often used in the interior of the small area of the wall decoration.

Different types of casstle tiles are used in different places. The kitchen and bathroom need glazed tiles with good dirt resistance and good skid resistance. The living room and bedroom need a smooth and beautiful polished tiles. The decoration of the wall needs decorative tiles such as mosaic.

Understanding the various parameters of tiles, cement tiles hardness, wear resistance, water absorption and other important parameters directly affect the service life of floor tiles as well as the ability to resist moisture and pollution. Check the quality of tiles design by watching and beating. To check whether the colors, patterns, trademarks and shades of tiles are clear, and whether the splicing effect is good or not. Knock the tiles and listen to whether the sound is crisp and no noise.

How to identify the quality of the tiles?

When we decoration home we need to buy tiles design for use, but how to buy a value-for-money and satisfactory marble tiles also has a certain knowledge, Generally, the principles of cement tiles choosing are: Check the surface of ceramic tiles, listen to the sound, drip water test and measurement tiles size.

Check the surface of floor tiles. The color and lustre of the wall tiles should be uniform, the surface finish and the whole degree are better, the surrounding rules and the pattern are complete, and four or five pieces of color difference, deformation and angular and less angle are drawn from a box.

Listen to the sound. With the hard objects hitting the kitchen tiles, the clearer the sound, the higher the porcelain quality, the better the quality. Also can the left hand of the thumb, index finger and middle finger of the corner of marble tiles design, easy to hang down, with the right hand index finger to light the lower part of large marble tiles, such as the sound, sweet as the upper products, such as dull sound, stagnation of turbidity is the next product.

Drip water test. You can drip water on the back of the tiles, see the speed of infiltration after the water dispersed, generally, the slower the water absorption, indicating that the tiles density is greater. On the contrary, the faster the water absorption, the less the density, the better the intrinsic quality.

measurement small tiles size. The higher the accuracy of the edge length of the tiles, the better the effect after laying and pasting. Buying high-quality tiles are not only easy to construct, but also can save time and accessories. The size of each tile is measured with a tape measure. There is no difference in the size of each tile.

In addition, its hardness can be observed. The tiles are of good hardness, toughness, and are not fragile. The edges and corners of the tiles are scratched with each other to see whether the broken fragments are fine or loose, hard, brittle or soft, leaving scratches or scattered powders, such as the former, and the latter is a poor quality. Standard size is the key to judge the quality of tiles. Measure the diagonal and quadrilateral dimensions and thickness of tiles with tape or caliper.

The color sense is whether the tiles have chromatic aberration, the color is rich, the good tiles have no color difference, the flower color is rich and diverse. You can put the tiles flat on the ground, spelled one square meter and three meters away from the ground, whether there is a different color or a feeling that can’t connect. If there is no defect, there is no color difference. Texture: the material, quality of tiles give people the feeling, different texture gives people with soft and hard, virtual and solid, tough and brittle, slippery, transparent and turbid and other feelings.

Aesthetic feeling is a kind of overall feeling, it is the overall feeling of wood tiles sense, texture and paving effect. At the same time, considering the hardness, toughness, wear resistance, flatness and so on, in the choice, it needs to choose the smooth and smooth wood marble tiles, the surface is not curved, the angle is not warped, the construction is easy, the surface of the ground is smooth after construction. The glaze of tiles should be uniform, smooth, neat, bright, delicate, bright and uniform. And when paving, the ground and walls are coordinated to give people a sense of beauty.

Tiles are also rich in emotion, which can be reflected in many aspects, such as the cultural spirit promised by the tiles, the service provided in the process of selling tiles, and the after-sales service provided by the manufacturer. From brand to product, from sales to service, many links are systematized and combined, forming the feeling of tiles.

But wooden floor is easier to be corroded and easy to deform after water. It needs to be carefully maintained for a long time. People who don’t like tossing and turning are not suitable for wood marble tiles. In addition, because wood regeneration is slower, raw material prices are more expensive.

The raw material of tiles design are mainly clay, stone sand, metal oxide and so on. The process of making is more complex than wood floor. It needs to be screened, lapping, pressing, calcining and so on. Tiles price surface is smooth, cleaning and cleaning is relatively simple, and do not need special maintenance, long life. Hard material, heat conduction and other properties make small tiles waterproof and fire resistant. Because of the controllable production project, the marble tiles pattern is rich in variety. But some advantages are also a shortcoming. Hard kitchen tiles make feet feel less comfortable, and smooth ground makes people slip easily.

Imitation wood flooring is modeled on the appearance, size and luster of solid wood flooring. Wooden floor has the advantages of health, environmental protection, beauty and comfort. But better than wood flooring, its raw materials are easier to get than wood flooring, the price is relatively low, more economical and practical. The processing process is more, making the imitation wood floor pattern more style, and strengthening durability, but also overcome the shortcomings of the wooden floor is not good to handle. Although the imitation wood floor has many advantages, but the human factors are not controllable, the harmful substances in many imitation wood floors on the market are beyond the standard, and the security and the difficulty of choosing are added invisible.

This kind of floor tiles are not only the advantage of imitation wood flooring and tiles, it also combines modern high-tech and traditional handicraft art, which makes the wood floor tiles application more extensive, style more fashionable and generous, combination and collocation effect is more significant.
