Home: How-To Information: Ceramic Tile: Room Preparation

Installing Carpet

Room Preparation

Before starting, clear the area to be tiled of all furniture and remove all moldings, fittings or fixtures that will be in the way. 

Door moldings that impede the tile can be cut at the base with a hand saw. Place a section of corrugated cardboard on the tiling surface. This will compensate for mortar thickness. Lay a piece of tile on top of the cardboard. Cut bottom of door molding just above the tile as shown above. Tile will be able to slip under door frame correctly.
