Ceramic Tile Application Solutions in Rough Floors

The surface should be levelled before the ceramic tile application on unlevelled floors. Surface levelling operations to be performed by using tile adhesive mortar only, should be avoided. Otherwise, proper bearing thickness (thickness with ceramic adhesive) cannot be achieved and an aesthetic finish cannot be achieved in the arrangement of the tiles.

In addition; ceramic tiles which are not at the same level, or at a higher or lower position, may cause accidents. Surface repair should be carried out by using 4002 Tamirart 30 and 4004 Tamirart S40 repair mortars on floors which are levelled but have regional defects. On the surfaces that require levelling, it is possible to level the ground up to 10 mm with one layer by using the self- levelling screed 4201 Mastar 10.

Prior to the application of the Mastar 10, the surface should be primed and freed from dust with 4505 Kalekim Astar (Primer) acrylic primer, absorbency should be decreased and adhesion strength should be increased. In the surface levelling up to 3 cm, Kalekim Primer should be applied between the layers of Mastar 10 application.

Before the application of ceramic tiles, it should be ensured that the surface defects are at around 1 mm level maximum and the ceramic application should be made by applying Kalekim Astar (Primer) again. It is possible to get a quick bonding operation with C2FE class 1066 Technofull allowing easy application on surfaces thanks to its consistency and covers the backside of the tile completely with no needs to apply the combined method (application of the adhesive on both the backside of the ceramic tile and on the surface).

For the grouting application, 2300 Fugaflex should be applied safely in interior and exterior places with its flexible structure.
