Whole house paving, as the name implies, is that the whole house uses the same material, the same specification, and the same color of the floor decoration materials for the overall laying. The whole house tile paving is the most common one. Compared with the traditional decoration method, the biggest feature of the whole house tile shop is the cancellation of the door stone, so that the home space looks more concise and atmospheric, especially for small units, the whole house tile shop can have the effect of enlarging the space.

A survey shows that 90% of the people who insist on doing the whole house tile shop are color control, and the other 10% are lazy cancer patients. It can be imagined that after the whole house is covered with tiles, it will not only greatly reduce the sanitary corners of the home, but also the robot with sweeping and mopping can freely enter and exit various spaces, and the housework will be directly reduced by half. Do you think it is fragrant?

It is a pity that the ideal is very full, and the reality is very skinny. On different social platforms, we have seen many netizens complain that the whole house is unreliable, because the effect of other people's home is very good, and when they arrive at their own home, they overturn the car. Where is the problem? We have summed up the 8 thunder points of the whole house tile paving.

1. The tile texture is not selected

First of all, the whole house can not choose tiles with too jumpy colors and too fancy textures. Fish maw white, sapphire blue, Amazon green, butterfly stone and other precious stone texture tiles can be said to be full of appearance and high-end sense. Once used in a large area, it is easy to cause visual fatigue; moreover, the whole house tiles are bound to encounter many cuts. In the place of splicing and splicing, the tiles with too large texture are ugly if they are not connected with the lines, and the continuous lines will cause excessive waste of materials.

2. The paving drawings are not designed well

The design of paving drawings can be said to be the most important part of the whole house. When many people buy tiles, they don't tell the store that they want to make tiles throughout the house. When the store's designers make the floor plan, they will arrange the layout easily. According to such drawings, the effect will not be much better. go. If you come across a master who claims to be able to tile the whole house without blueprints, then you have to be extra careful, because he is very likely to be a big fool.

3. No measurement and compound ruler

After the tile store has made the floor plan, it must give the drawing to the master, and then let the master go to the site to do the measurement and compound ruler. This step is very critical. Although the staff of the tile store will also come to measure the room, there will always be some errors in the measurement and the actual paving. It is best to let a professional master adjust the drawings according to the on-site measurement and compound ruler. Many people have small strips of tiles within 10cm when they make whole-house tiles. A large part of the reason is that this step is not done well.

4. The ground is not leveled

Whole house paving has very high requirements on the ground flatness of the entire space, so it must be leveled before tiling. If you use the cement mortar as the adhesive for the thick paste method of laying the tiles, the master can also use the leveling tool to level the newly laid tiles when laying; if you use tile glue as the adhesive The thin sticking method is basically difficult to remedy. This is also a major reason why many construction teams are reluctant to do whole-house paving.

5. through the shop but not seam

The whole house tile shop has extremely high requirements on the construction process. Many masters are reluctant to do it because they are afraid of trouble. In fact, it is not scary to meet a master who directly says that he can't do it, but he is afraid of encountering a master who fishes in troubled waters. Some masters will be clever enough to cut the tiles into the size of the door stone and stick them on the threshold, and then tell you that this is the whole house tile paving. It should be noted that it is not a full paving if there is no seam, and the rework that should be reworked should not be fooled.

6. The amount of tiles is less

As we all know, the cost of laying ceramic tiles in the whole house is relatively high, but what many people do not know is that the high cost is not only due to the high labor cost, but also a large part of the reason is that the material cutting causes a lot of loss. Therefore, when calculating the amount of tiles in the whole house, it is about 20% more than the ordinary paving method. It should be noted that the amount of tiles should be more and not less, because once the replenishment is involved in the later period, it is easy to have color difference problems with different batches of tiles.

7. The closing is not handled well

Although the physical properties of ceramic tiles are relatively stable, there is also the phenomenon of thermal expansion and contraction, so when encountering walls or junctions, remember to reserve at least 5mm-12mm expansion joints, and then use skirting lines, closing strips, Cover and beautify with decorative materials such as beading. If the tile is not properly closed when the whole house is paved, the tiles will be prone to arching and cracking on the ground in the later stage, resulting in maintenance costs and troubles in life.

8. Dry and wet separation is not done

The most common whole-house tiled paving includes guest dining room + porch, guest dining room + bedroom + porch, etc. Because of the problems of drainage and water retention, bathrooms, kitchens and balconies are less commonly paved. Open kitchens and non-living balconies can actually be tiled throughout the house, but only the bathroom is the most troublesome. Some people's bathrooms do not have wet and dry separation, but they don't want to pass the door stone. When the drainage slope is not enough, "water overflows the golden mountain".

After reading the above 8 thunder points that are easy to step on the whole house, we will share a few tips to double the effect of the whole house.

Suggestion 1: Choose the starting point for laying tiles in the whole house. The positioning of the starting point is very important. The subsequent laying is extended on the basis of the starting point. It is necessary to avoid the brick seam facing the door, and to maintain the integrity and beauty of the aisle tiles. Therefore, the selection of the starting point of the paving is very critical. Most of the masters will set the starting point of the whole house tiles at the door to avoid the brick seam facing the door, which looks more beautiful.

Suggestion 2: Use the position of the cabinet to cover the ugly. When making the paving drawings, you can inform the designer of the installation position and depth of the TV cabinet, entrance cabinet, wardrobe, cabinet, and bathroom cabinet. The tiles of the block are arranged to the corners, and the cabinets are used to hide them. This can not only hide the ugly, but also reduce the cutting loss.

Suggestion 3: In the bathroom where the dry and wet areas of the toilet are separated from the dry and wet areas, the height difference between the dry and wet areas can be made 2-3cm, which can not only block water, but also look beautiful, and does not affect the normal use. In addition, the transition between different materials in the dry and wet areas of the bathroom can be decorated with edge-holding strips, which can not only solve the slight height difference and cover up the gap, but also reduce the difficulty of construction.

Suggestion 4: The position of the porcelain seam at the threshold remember where the door leaf is installed, and where the brick seam at the threshold is left. In this way, the door panel can just block the brick gap, so as to avoid an extra narrow strip when the door is closed, which will affect the extension of the space.

Suggestion 5: The choice of the color number of the beautifying agent. The beautifying agent must choose a model that is close to the color of the tile, which will help reduce the sense of gap in the space. Avoid choosing epoxy colored sand when matte and soft tiles are beautifully sewn, otherwise the combination will be extraordinarily abrupt.
