Installation Guide

Mosaic Tile Installation
Step 1: Surface Preparation
• Tile may be installed over most structurally sound
substrates.
• Make sure surface is clean, smooth, dry and free of
wax, soap scum and grease.
• Any damaged, loose or uneven areas must be
repaired, patched and leveled.
• Remove any moldings, trim, appliances or anything
that could interfere with installation.
Step 2: Layout
• Find the center point of the wall, using a level to draw a
plumb line in the wall’s center.
• Lay out a row of loose tiles across the bottom of
the wall from the center line leaving uniform joints
between tiles. NOTE: Tiles can be butted together
leaving a consistent 1/16 in. joint automatically. TIP: If
cuts leave tiles smaller than half to their original size,
adjust the center line a half tile closer to the wall.
• Stack two tiles here. At the top, draw a horizontal line
on the wall and continue the line around all side walls
to be tiled.
