Trendsetters Services Serving The Pinellas County Areas! Learn to Install Ceramic Tile Yourself! Check List: Tools Needed For Laying Tile! Laying ceramic tile is a task that requires planning. Once you have prepared the surface you need to assemble all the tools you will need for your tile laying project. Here's a checklist of the tools you needed: Tape Measure Pencil or Marker Pen Level Chalk Line 2 Buckets (one for thin set, other for grout) Tile Spacers Notched Trowel Margin Trowel Margin Float Grout Flout Sponge (one that has a firm round edge) Scrub Pad Mixer Bar Mixing Drill Tile Nippers or Wet Saw (Rent a wet saw if you don't want to go to the expense of buying) Tile Cutter (Again rent one if you do not wish to buy your own) Now that you've got all your tools together the first task is to carefully measure the area you want to tile. Then calculate the number of tiles you will need. Always add on an extra 10 to 15% to allow for cutting errors, waste and spares. Of course if you are going to use accent or border tiles then you need to think about where they are going to go and how many of these you will need. Then it's time for a shopping trip to buy the tiles and other materials you will need for laying ceramic tile.
