Installing porcelain floor tiles in your home is a great way to add a unique and stylish look to your home. Porcelain tiles are a versatile and durable option that can stand up to high traffic and everyday wear and tear. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you install porcelain floor tiles in your home.
First, you need to prepare the surface of your floor by removing any old tiles and cleaning the surface. If there are any holes or cracks in the floor, these should be filled with a suitable filler before proceeding.

Next, lay out your porcelain tiles in the desired pattern. Make sure to leave a small gap between each tile to ensure proper spacing.
Once you have laid out the tiles, you need to apply a suitable adhesive to the back of each tile. Make sure to spread the adhesive evenly and to the edges of each tile.
Now, you can start placing the tiles on the floor. Make sure to press down firmly on the tiles to ensure a secure fit. If you are using a self-leveling compound, make sure to spread it evenly and allow it to dry before proceeding.
Finally, apply grout to both the joints and the edges of the tiles. This will help to seal the tiles and ensure a water-tight seal.
