Diverse size of cement tiles

First, estimating floor size is important because it will determine how many cement tiles you need to buy as well as the amount of adhesive or mortar, which allows to have an overview before buying cement tiles and optimizing the cost.

If you want the estimation to be highly accurate, you can take a grid of paper and draw patterns of the floor and walls, then try to arrange the cement tiles as you like.

Space has a small area. For spaces with a narrow area, you should not choose the size of cement tiles too large that makes us look unfavorable. Selecting large encaustic cement tiles used for a small room will take more time to cut the cement tiles in the area near the edge or corner. This makes the room not beautiful and wastes the amount of cement tiles needed. The large size of cement tiles in a small room definitely makes the space more stuffy and unbalanced.

For rooms with less than 4 sqm of floor, less doors and lack of light, encaustic cement tiles with less pattern, bright colors and size of 20 x 20 or 30 x 30 combined with slanted slices should be chosen to give the space a more spacious feel.

Using large encaustic tiles for large areas has helped to save cement tiles and labor costs, making the space more airy and more beautiful.

 

Space is not square

You can overcome this by using rectangular floor cement tiles with size such as 30 x 60 or 15 x 60, which helps to cover the defects of space. Rectangular cement tiles are an extremely effective solution for rooms that are non-square or distorted because they are quite fit, not only do not cause excess and save construction expense, but also create great aesthetic.

Note when selecting tiles

You should plan specifically on the quantity, design, color, size for the decorated space. This makes it easier to buy cement tiles because the data has been calculated in advance. If you want to combine different cement tile patterns in the same space, you need to create drawings with that idea to see if that method is suitable for the room, the materials, how many cement tiles for each pattern is needed, etc.
