Hi i would like to remove the wall between my kitchen and dining room to open up the area.
First floor or wsll.
Work your way up the wall.
Stud walls need to be installed over double plated floor joices for the extra weight.
At least not without some careful planning first.
If you tile the floor first you may accidentally damage the new floor by dropping things on it.
Once you have finished installing the wall tile you can install the floor tiles all the way to the wall and underneath the space savers.
Deciding whether to tile shower floor or walls first in your bathroom.
Opt for floor installation first because it s often a messy process.
So if you put you subfloor down first it will probably take just as long if not longer to do all the additional measurements to find the plates for accuracy.
How can i tell if the wall is load bearing.
And that can t happen if the wall tiles are already installed.
The wall tiles should overlap the floor.
While first floor supports are needed to account for the additional weight of a second floor the walls are pretty much the same as those of a single story home.
Whether it is to lay wall tiles or floor tiles in bathroom shower after the wall tiles are laid the tiles will take a certain time to wait for the cement to dry out.
Advantages of installing wall tiles first in bathroom shower.
However professional tilers will disagree with this.
This may result in cracked tile.
To finish the tile installation project you can lay the final row of tile at the bottom of the wall.
