How can I buy a tile that is worthwhile and worthy? When selecting kitchen and bathroom tiles, we must first find out the types of tiles related to kitchen and bathroom, and select them according to the needs and actual conditions. There are also several basic principles to follow in the selection.

First, before selecting the quality of a specific tile, first of all, we must determine the style and type of tiles.

1. Determine the tile style

Choosing the design style of the tile is the first step in the selection of the decoration and plays a decisive role. However, many consumers do not pay attention to the choice of ceramic tiles because of the narrow space of kitchen and bathroom. In fact, the color and decoration of ceramic tiles can affect the overall visual effect of kitchen and bathroom.

After you have decided on the entire home improvement style, choose the tiles, and different styles will have different combinations. The picture above shows the kitchen model of the ceramic shop, which can be seen as a retro European style. So after selecting the style, pick the tiles and make the decoration style of the whole home uniform.

2. Distinguish the types of tiles

After determining the style of the tile, the next step is to distinguish the type of tile. Introduction to Loulan Ceramics, the current market tiles are mainly divided into glazed tiles and polished tiles. Most of the kitchens and bathrooms use glazed tiles, and the living room mostly uses polished tiles. Only by figuring out the types of tiles can you not be fooled when choosing tiles.

3. Choose the right material

The kitchen and bathroom are both prone to water, which can cause the ground to be slippery. In order to ensure safety and health, it is best to choose a rough surface for the kitchen tiles to increase the friction and achieve the anti-slip effect. Shopping guides suggest consumers, it is best to choose a better material tile, because tile decoration and wood floor decoration is different, tile renovation is very troublesome, it is best to have a decoration in place, do not lose because of small.

Second, after determining what style of tile to choose, it begins to identify the quality of the tile.

Look

The shopping guide tells us that the quality of the tiles should first be uniform in color, and the surface finish and flatness should be good. The glazed surface should be uniform, bright, non-spotted, glazed, and bumpy. Glazes that are not bright, bun, or have bubbles are quality problems. Second, the surrounding rules, the pattern is complete. After the consumer purchases, a few pieces can be taken from the same package to compare the defects such as chromatic aberration, deformation, lack of edges and corners.

2. Listen

Introduction to the shopping guide, you can take a piece of brick to knock another piece, or use other hard objects to knock the brick. If the sound of the brick is crisp and loud, it means that the brick is of good quality and cooked. If the sound is abnormal, it indicates that there is heavy skin or crack in the brick.

Heavy leather is when the brick is formed, the air in the material is not discharged, resulting in poor bonding between the material and the material, and internal cracking. It is not visible from the surface, and can only be identified by listening to the sound. You can also use the left thumb, forefinger and middle finger to clip the corner of the tile and hang it down easily. Use your right index finger to tap the middle and lower part of the tile. For example, the sound is clear and the ear is good for the top, such as dull sound and turbidity.

3. Try

Place the water droplets on the back of the tile to see how fast the water is infiltrated. In general, the slower the water absorption, the greater the density of the tile and the better the quality. Conversely, the faster the water absorption, the thinner the density, and the lower the quality.

4. Quantity

The higher the side length of the tile, the better the effect after laying. Buying high-quality tiles is not only easy to construct, but also saves working hours and accessories. Use a tape measure to measure the size of each tile around the difference, the highest accuracy is the top grade. It is possible to erect the bricks together and compare the dimensions of the bricks. The deviation of the small bricks is allowed to be plus or minus 1 mm, and the large bricks are allowed to be plus or minus 2 mm.

Third, attach importance to brand technology is equally important

Brands are also a consideration for buying tiles. The introduction of shopping guide, the design style and color of domestic ceramic tile brands have been in line with international standards, and the manufacturing process and technology are very mature. Among the building materials with higher national standards than the European standard, ceramic tiles are one of the few building materials. Some domestic products are not inferior to well-known foreign brands, but the price is much lower.

For example, the national standard test method for ceramic tiles is cycled at a temperature of 150 ° C and a pressure of 0.5 MPa. The internal control standard of our famous brand Nobel ceramic tile is 180 ° C temperature and 1.0 MPa pressure to pass the test seven times before being allowed to leave the factory. Therefore, these domestic first-line brands are very cost-effective, and consumers who choose domestic brands will not suffer.
