Bezen Tiles Driveway42 viewsThe driveway tiles.dozer

Granito Tiles40 viewsThese are the heavy granito tiles, each weighing appx 7.5 kg each. They are laid much like granite or marble because of their weight. Many 'tilers' don't know how to do a proper job with granito and I have seen it done wrong many times.dozer

Glass Tiles39 viewsThe glass tiles under the installed cabinets.dozer

Finished Bathroom Section38 viewsA finished section of the bathroom wall tiles.dozer

Two Step37 viewsThe granito tiles are first laid and leveled in dry pack and then weber adhesive is applied to the back of the tile.dozer

Video Showing Granito Tile Laying35 viewsThis is a 7 minute video showing the process for laying granito tiles. It is a bit funky in that the tiler goes really slow because of the camera, but it demonstrates in general how it should be done. The main thing to note is that it is a two step process using dry mix concrete as a base. dozer
