During & after installation

On installation day, you should plan to be home. Expect a lot of noise and the potential for some above average dust. With that, you should have a plan for keeping children and pets clear of the work areas. First, the installer will determine tile layout. Then, using chalk as a guide, your installer will spread mortar and carefully place the tile. Spacers are used between tiles so they can be evenly placed. After the mortar sets, grout is applied usually the next day. Once the entire job is done, you will need to wait at least 48 hours before walking on your new tile to allow it to properly cure. Once your brand new tile is installed, it's up to you to keep it looking and performing its very best! To do this, you need to follow a few simple care and maintenance tips
