Among the modern living room designs, tiles play an important role in decorative materials due to their waterproof, moisture-proof, wear-resistant, and easy-to-clean features. Whether in the early days of monotony or a wide variety of things, it has always been the most direct understanding of the decoration. Tiles are generally divided into walls and floor tiles, of which the use of floor tiles is more extensive.

Types of tiles
The so-called ceramic tiles are fire-resistant metal oxides and semi-metal oxides. Through the processes of grinding, mixing, pressing, glazing, and sintering, a kind of building materials such as porcelain or stone, which are resistant to acid and alkali, are collectively called tiles. Tiles are divided into outer wall tiles, inner wall tiles, floor tiles and square tiles.
The types commonly used in the market are:
Culture stone: It is often used to decorate the wall or the ground in some rooms with personality and advocating natural style. The surface imitates the unevenness of the natural rock and little crystal reflection. The decoration has a sense of authenticity in the room.
Glazed tiles: Glazed tiles are glazed tiles that are burned on the surface of the brick. This type of brick is divided into two categories: First, it is burned with clay, because of the higher water absorption rate, glaze must be burned. Because of its low strength, it is rarely used now; the other one is fired with porcelain clay, in order to pursue decoration. The effect also burned the glaze, which was slightly higher than the ceramic-fired tiles. Glazed porcelain glazed tiles are widely used in home renovations.
Fullbody brick: This is a non-glazed porcelain tile with good slip resistance and abrasion resistance. Generally speaking, what we call “non-slip floor tiles†is mostly full-body bricks. Since these bricks are moderately priced, they are very popular.
Polished bricks: All bricks are polished after polishing and they are very hard-wearing due to their high hardness.
Vitrified brick: It is a high-temperature fired porcelain tile, which is the hardest of all tiles. Sometimes the tiles are still safe when the polished tiles are scratched.
The trend of floor tiles style tiles as a large area of ​​laying floor materials, using their own color, texture to create a different style of living room environment. Nowadays, the types of bricks on the market are very complete. You can choose your own brand according to your own budget and preferences, and choose the appropriate style of floor tiles according to the style of your home. The bright and colorful glass tiles decorate the modern home life, and the calm ancient glazed tiles complement each other in Chinese and European style rooms. The mosaic of different materials and different splicing applications add 10,000 kinds of styles to the living room, and the creativity is novel and the temperament is good. Tiles also played a finishing touch.
Selection of Floor Tiles When selecting floor tiles, the selection should be based on the personal preferences and functional requirements of the room, according to the site layout, from the floor tile specifications, color, texture and other aspects of screening. The color and style of the floor tiles should match the overall space color. For example, the floor tiles, wall tiles, and bathroom equipment in the bathroom should be of a uniform style. Floor tiles in the living room and bedroom should also be united with walls, ceilings, furniture, etc., so as to create an overall sense of beauty. The tiles of good quality are uniformly uniform in size and size, and the floor tiles are smooth and surface without bubbles, no stain, no pockmarks, bright colors, no corner defects, 90 degree right angles, clear patterns, good pressure resistance, and are not easily damaged.
The selection of glazed porcelain tiles depends on pottery and glazed surfaces. The size of the ceramic tile should be the same as that of the standard tile, and the difference between the thickness and the size of the tile must not exceed 2 mm; the thickness of the tile is generally more than 8 mm. The quality of the glaze is even more important. First, choose a thick and smooth enamel; second, the glaze color should be as close as possible. Bathrooms, kitchens, and aisles are suitable for small-sized tiles, while large areas such as bedrooms and living rooms are suitable for ceramic tile sizes of more than 30 cm.
Tiles pick six steps:
The first step: see whether the glazed pinholes, spots, glazed texture, with or without color;
The second step: see if the tiles are deformed and measure whether the two diagonals of the tile are equal;
The third step is to look at the water absorption rate of the tiles. With water drops on the back of the brick, the smaller the diffusion area, the longer the drying time, the lower the water absorption rate, and the better the quality.
Step 4: Listen to the sound and tap the tile with your hand. The sharper the sound, the better the quality.
Step 5: Weigh the weight. The heavier the weight, the better the texture.
Step 6: Unpacking inspection, pumping one box of different box products, and see if there is any color difference after laying and whether the size is the size.
Tile laying:
Dry shop method: In theory, floor tiles should adopt dry shop method. After the base water is moistened, floating sand and debris are removed. Wipe the bonding layer, use one to three dry cement mortar, lay flat according to the horizontal line, put the brick on the mortar and use the rubber-coated hammer to shake, remove the floor tile and pour the cement slurry, and then put the floor tile to make it level . The dry paving method effectively avoids the occurrence of air bubbles and empty drums caused by the paving of the floor tiles. However, because the dry paving method of the ground tiles is relatively labor-intensive and has a relatively high technical content, the general dry paving method is better than the wet paving method. The cost of the law is much higher.
Wet-laying method: It is a method commonly used by many home improvement owners. The difference between this process and the dry-laying method is to replace one to three dry cement mortars with ordinary water and cement mortar. The tiled floor using the wet paving method may generate hollow drums and air bubbles, which may affect the service life of the tile. However, due to the ease of operation and low price of the wet paving method, many families still use the wet paving method to lay the ground.
