When it comes to pebble tile installation you'd better want to watch
a quick demo first and see for yourself how easy this do-it-yourself
installation process is. By the end of this quick 2.5 minutes
demonstrational video (As seen on
HGtv™
- HOME & GARDEN TELEVISION) you'll
be able to understand how to install these unique tiles by yourself.
Anyway, we've summarized the installation process
in this page.
Required Materials:
Grout
Grout Float
Paint Brush
Scissors
Sealer
Sponge/s
Thinset Mortar
Trowel
Quick
Installation:
Step-1
Take a paint brush and brush the sealer over the tiles before
tiling.
Step-2
Take a trowel and apply the thinset equally over the designated
surface.
Step-3
Mount the tiles while interlocking each one on all sides.
Step-4
If you find that a pebble tile installation cannot fit a space over
the coated surface, simply use scissors in order to cut the mesh
itself so the tile can eventual fit the desired area. If you want,
you can simply manually remove pebble stones out of the mesh if you
whish to fill some empty spaces.
Step-5
Wait for minimum 24hrs so the thinset can dry before grouting.
Step-6
Once thinset is dry, carefully take the grout float and apply the
grout between the spaces around the pebble stones.
Step-7
Now wait for 20 min. and then, carefully use a wet sponge to clean
the excess grout of the coated surface until desired pebbles
exposure is achieved.
Step-8
In the last step all you need is to wait another 24hrs for the grout
to dry completely, then apply a coat of sealer over the grout and
pebble stones.
