Matters needing attention in the selection of living room floor tiles:
Recently, friends often consult the content of living room floor tiles. Here, I have sorted out some of these contents, hoping to help you when purchasing:
1. Determine the style and consider personal needs.
When buying floor tiles, we should first consider our own overall style, determine the general color of tiles, so as to coordinate with the overall style of the living room, and at the same time pay attention to consider some of our own personalized needs. Floor tiles are mainly divided into vitrified tiles and glazed tiles. Now commonly known as antique bricks mostly refer to glazed tiles!
2. How to determine the specifications of floor tiles?
When considering the specifications of floor tiles, we should pay attention to the following two aspects: First, the size of the living room, and do not blindly pursue large-area floor tiles. Generally speaking, I personally suggest using 600*600 specifications for flats below 20, and 800*800 products for flats above 20. When choosing, we should also consider the actual area that future generations can see after the house is renovated. If the visual area of people is small and the specifications of bricks are too large,
3. How to choose the matching products of floor tiles:
The supporting products of floor tiles mainly include horizon, ground mosaic and skirting line. Horizon: some lines that are mainly used to make the living room floor more varied and look particularly concise are mainly made of tiles that are different from the main color of tiles. Generally, dark tiles are used for processing, and some antique tiles also have some matching horizons to choose from. Mainly used around the ground or in places such as aisle suspension. Parquet floor: A decorative picture made of ceramic tiles. Now basically anyone who buys bricks can entrust processing. There are many patterns to choose from. Generally, attention should be paid when selecting processing. The background color of the mosaic should be consistent with the colors and patterns of other tiles on the ground! Mainly used in the living room, dining room porch or under the coffee table and dining table. Kick corner line: mainly to protect dado. I personally suggest that you can choose one of the following two ways to use it: first, it is in great contrast with the color of floor tiles, but you should pay attention to choosing products of the same color as far as possible! To maintain the unity of the overall style; The second is close to the color of the floor tile. In this case, I personally suggest that there should be a contrasting horizon around the ground. You can buy the finished product directly or entrust the seller to process it. In general, if you use glazed floor tiles, you should choose glazed corner lines. If you use glazed tiles, you should choose glazed tiles to kick corners.
4. The ground brick pavement:
At present, there are two most commonly used methods: straight paving and oblique paving: bricklaying is parallel to the wall, which is the most commonly used paving method. Inclined paving: Bricks are laid at a 45-degree angle with the wall, which is relatively expensive.
5. Protection of vitrified tiles in the living room.
Vitrified bricks are all adobe fired at one time under high temperature and high pressure, so there are some tiny pores on the surface of the brick, and stains can easily penetrate into the brick body. At present, some manufacturers mainly solve this problem by coating a layer of wax on the surface of vitrified brick to protect the brick surface. Because the quality of different brands of tiles is very different, the antifouling performance will be different. Therefore, attention should be paid to protection during construction. There are mainly the following aspects:
1) First check whether the surface of vitrified brick is waxed. If not, it must be waxed before construction.
2) During construction, the construction personnel are required to wrap the rubber hammer with white cloth before using it. Brick skin hammer with poor antifouling performance will leave black marks when it hits the brick surface.
3) For the newly paved floor tile, you can't walk on it, because the brick is not dry and firm, so as not to cause uneven brick surface.
4) For the newly paved floor tiles, the paved tiles must be covered with ceramic tile packaging boxes (preferably waterproof cloth) to prevent the sand from grinding the brick surface, and the paint and glue used for decoration will drip on the tiles to pollute the brick surface.
5) After the whole decoration is completed, it will be easier to clean it thoroughly.
6. The living room floor tile joint problem:
There are generally two kinds of seam allowance for living room floor tiles, wide seam and narrow seam: commonly used when laying vitrified tiles, generally, seam allowance of 1- 1.5 mm is enough, and jointing agent close to the color of tiles is used for jointing treatment. Pay attention to leaving seams when paving, mainly considering the shrinkage of thermal barrier.
Wide seam: commonly used when paving antique bricks. Generally, the joint is between 5 and 8 mm, so you can choose the jointing agent close to the color of the brick body or choose the jointing agent with strong contrast to treat the brick joint.
