    Default A compilation of guides to tiling (pdf)

    I wrote a number of guides on tiling related matters some time ago, and collected them into a thread. It was quite popular, and someone suggested that I'd compile them into a pdf, and that's what I've done now.

    The guide covers some of the basic practical aspects of tiling, such as grouting, but it also touches some of the more technical aspects, such as diagnosing grout failiures, and european norms.


    These are the topics:


    • Choosing adhesive and grout with standards as a general guide
    • Diagnosing grout failiure
    • Self-Leveling Compound
    • Epoxy and waterproofing
    • Cement, Gypsum, Anhydrite, Ettringite Crystals, and PVA
    • Regular grouting using a washboy and floats
    • Using silicone
    • Pricing
    • Customer relations


    Feedback is welcome.

    Enjoy.
