8) Fix tile on wall surface by gently pressing or with a rubber mallet to remove air
voids.
9) Each tile will be gently tapped with a phanti for solid bedding to form a level
surface. The joints will be of uniform width and in straight lines as specified. Tile
spacers 3mm will be used to achieve uniform thickness of joints and straight
joints.
10) After the tiles have been laid, shovel to be checked in every two layers
respectively & to be rechecked by spirit level and line dori. The surplus grout on
tiles shall be thoroughly cleaned off immediately. The width of the Tile Joints shall
not exceed 3mm. The joints shall be cleaned off thoroughly to a depth of about
5mm and all dust and loose mortar will be removed.
11) For dado works in toilets, walls shall be marked with tile fixing layout with
correct sizes of tiles to be fixed. Tiles shall be fixed from bottom second layer (full
tile) to top leaving bottom most layer of tile. Each tile shall be fixed in plumb with
tile (level pads) piece using plumb bob. Also line dori shall be stretched between
two corner tile (level pads) pieces and all tiles shall be fixed in plumb with line
dori.
12) Bottom most layer shall be laid after fixing floor tiles. Bottom most tiles shall
be cut to correct slope of floor laid, before fixing. Care shall be taken so that top

avoid seepage of water below through shrinkage cracks, if any.
3) Tile layout shall then be marked on the floor, with correct size of tiles, and
clear-cut marking of starting point for fixing of tiles shall be done. Tile edges being
kept at right angles to plastered faces of walls or as specified in drawing.
4) Proper (level pads)s of tiles shall be taken at all four corners of rooms where
tiles are to be fixed and shown to the site in charge / site engineer before work
begins.
5) Floor level offset (1/2” minimum or as specified on drawing) and slope shall be
considered while taking (level pads) s for toilets and terraces
6) Finished floor level so decided shall be clearly marked on each wall.
7) The surface on which the tiles are to be laid will be cleaned and wetted.
Cement mortar (1:4) bedding for the tiles will be as per required.
8) Slurry should be applied over the mortar bed.
