Bathroom ceramic tile installation
is something you can do
If you are thinking of remodeling your bathroom then I bet that you are thinking about doing at least part of the work yourself, especially if you have a very small bathroom. Remodeling small bathrooms is often a big job however, almost as big as renovating a large bathroom would be. The majority of the work involved in remodeling a bathroom centres around installing fixtures and plumbing. You don't tend to put that much more into a larger bathroom, you just have more space to put it in which makes things a lot easier.
Unless you are very experienced, confident and have plenty of time then I would not suggest that you undertake your bathroom makeover all by yourself. It's best left to the professionals but if you want to get involved then there are a few jobs that you can allocate to yourself that are not beyond the skill of most budding do-it-yourself enthusiasts.
Laying ceramic tile is an ideal job if you want to get involved in the project. It's also one of the most pleasing and satisfying jobs in the whole bathroom makeover project.
If you decide to do the tiling yourself then make sure that you plan the project around your timescale. Make sure that there is plenty of spare time in case you don't get finished in the time you expect to. Tile setting isn't a difficult job when done correctly but it is time consuming and it does tend to take longer than you think.
A little research before you start can save you a lot of problems in the long
run. Read about tiling in do-it-yourself books and watch any tile setting videos
you can find like this one made by a tile setter that has spent 20 years doing
the job professionally. You can pick up lots of tips from him.
When to do the tiling
You should plan to do your bathroom tiling before the new fixtures are installed and after all the walls have been prepared ready to accept ceramic. Laying tile at this point avoids the necessity to cut tiles to fit around the fixtures.
