First, why not throw away the remaining tiles?
1, behind the cupboard
The position behind the cabinet will not be seen by us, but it is easy for the cabinet to start to have problems without laying tiles. It's no use sticking beautiful tiles on the back. Who will be fine looking at the tiles behind your cabinet? This can be used to lay the remaining tiles at home, protect the cabinets and save a lot of money.
2, the mop pool
The balcony will no longer be used as a drying area, but will be turned into a small laundry area, where it will be very convenient to dry clothes directly. Moreover, in order to better save the bathroom space, a mop pool is directly installed on the balcony to facilitate sanitation and cleaning, which will make the space at home dirty and bring unnecessary trouble to our cleaning.
If the mop pool made of cement is not decorated, it will feel a little low, which does not match the decoration at home. In such a small place, it doesn't feel worthwhile to buy tiles. We can solve it by laying the remaining tiles.
3. Floor parquet
Mosaic decoration is a very popular design method now. It can also make the home improvement city look more atmospheric and fashionable. The price of finished flowers is more expensive. You might as well use the remaining tiles to pave, mixing and stirring will have different values, or you can use the discarded materials at home.
Step 4 make flower pots
Making small flowerpots is very useful. But cutting it yourself is more troublesome. When decorating, find an enthusiastic worker to give him cigarettes and let him cut them with a machine. He can do as much as he wants. Cut ceramic tile materials and then stick them together with casting glue or epoxy resin.
5, the baseboard
The baseboard protects the walls at home. In order to save money, you can cut the remaining tiles into skirting lines, which will make the tiles at home better integrated and easy to clean up.
6.waistline
In order to make the wall tiles have more texture and grade, tiles will be used for separation and decoration when decorating the wall, but the price of waist line is not cheap. It is better to cut off the remaining tiles at home and then treat the wall with waistline to make the home more tidy and beautiful.
7. Balcony building
There are many water stains on the balcony where clothes are hung, so it is necessary to lay tiles for waterproofing. The remaining tiles can also be decorated with pebbles, so that the whole will have a natural and personalized feeling, and the unique beauty of the balcony will be better designed.
8. Save it for later repair
A small number of tiles, or save it for later repair. Otherwise, there will be problems in the future, and it will be difficult to find tiles of the same color if you want to repair them again.
Second, the calculation method of tile consumption
1, calculate the number of tiles by area.
1) First, measure the size of the ground wall of the paving space and calculate the area (length and width).
If you need to order tiles, first choose tiles in the store, then measure the size of your home, and calculate how many tiles you need according to the size of the tiles you choose before buying.
Size measurement: kitchen and bathroom (length, width, height, width and height of doors and windows), and other places where wall tiles are not needed only need to be measured (such as bedroom and living room). In fact, measuring the size is very simple, and it will be done in a short time. You'd better measure it yourself, because you don't buy tiles locally, and the decoration company won't take kickbacks. If they are not satisfied, they may give you more or less, and it is not good to cause you trouble on purpose.
2) Calculation formula
Total number of tiles = tile laying area (m2) (width of single long tile)
2. Calculate the number of pieces of foot line, sideline and waistline according to the length.
Firstly, measure the total length of the crural line, sideline and waistline to be pasted;
Calculation formula: total pieces = total length value; Length values of single leg line, edge line and waist line.
