A tiler or do it yourself?

Once you have finally made the choice of which tile you want, they still need to be placed. Are you handy, do you dare? Do you know someone who might be able to do it? Or do you need a tiler to help you place the tiles.


Moroccan tiles

With Moroccan tiles, and especially zelliges, it is certainly possible to do it yourself. Make sure you read our description carefully and follow all the steps, then it should definitely go well!

Cement tiles

With the cement tiles the process is a lot more complicated. Here a few things are very important:
> Follow the step-by-step plan , step by step! Don't skip a step by doing it later because that can cause it to go completely wrong.
Make sure you buy the right products to install them, you can buy everything at Designtegels but if you want to buy them yourself, make sure they are suitable for natural stone, acid-free and whether the adhesive is flexible.

Choose your tiler

If you hire a tiler, clearly indicate in advance which tile it concerns and whether he is familiar with the product. Do not assume this, it happens very often that the tiler is used to ceramic tiles and does not take into account the porosity of the tiles. To be on the safe side, always give him our step-by-step plan and ask him whether he wants to purchase the right products. On the page: Tilers , Designtegels has tilers all over the country. They are all specialized and very familiar with our products. If you want to know more about the current price or time, you can find everything about tiling on HomeDeal .


Laying patterns

Do you have a complicated pattern with borders and corners? Then it is wise to lay out your tiles in advance in our floor planner or otherwise on the floor so that you are sure that the pattern is correct and the tiler cannot make any mistakes. A tile is fixed so quickly, and a pattern the wrong way around will always be an eyesore.
