Tiling

Tiling

Tiles can be applied to drylined walls or the surface of lightweight partition systems to dado level or above. Tiling can be carried out in any type of building either in dry areas or in areas subject to intermittent moisture conditions. Typical applications include domestic shower areas, toilets, bathrooms and kitchens. Tiles up to 12.5mm thick with a maximum weight of 32kg/m2 can be accommodated (20kg/m2 for a plastered surface). The tiles are fixed using a suitable thin-bed adhesive applied to a nominal 3mm thickness. The use of Gyproc moisture resistant grade boards is recommended to intermittent moisture applications, including splashbacks. Alternatively, borads can be coated with two coats of Gyproc Drywall Sealer and cut edges sealed to prepare for tiling
