Natural stone is a beautiful tiling material that has some amazing properties that renders added durability and beauty to the stone. Every natural tile is different from artificial tile due to its varied design and texture. Every tile is visually different from its adjacent tile; hence you can utilize their variations to create a unique look for your flooring.

However, you must follow certain steps while installing natural stone tiles in your rooms.

Firstly, you should make sure that the tiled surface is evenly distributed. The surface should not have any dents or spots, since any kind of unevenness can lead to misplacement of tiles in long run. Hence, you should create a uniform base with help of a backer board or plywood. This will support easy installation of the natural stone tiles.

Measure the length and width of the room before purchasing the tiles. You should also make sure that you purchase at least 20% more tiles that required for installation in order to avoid any last minute purchases, since the tiles can get chapped during installation.

You should also determine the style and pattern of the floor layout. If you are bored of the regular check designs, then you can cut the tiles diagonally and combine different colors and patterns to create a unique look for your floors.

Moreover, you should not forget to use a strong adhesive that has high cohesiveness between the tiled surface and natural stone tile. A good adhesive will hold the tile for a longer duration and support minimum replacement of the tiles.

Although, tile installation is quite a simple and easy task but you must be really cautious while installing the tiles on your floor. You should place them neck to neck and cover the gap between consecutive tiles with help of a high quality grout.

However, if you are still skeptical about your installation abilities, then you should appoint a professional help for appropriate installation of the tiles.
