Is it necessary to make beautiful seams if the tile joints are relatively small? Generally speaking, the tile gap is not less than 1mm, and it can be sewn beautifully.
If it is less than 1mm, the tile gap is very small to make beautiful seams. Due to thermal expansion and cold shrinkage, the tiles may arch and affect the appearance, so beautiful seams can be omitted.
Generally speaking, even seamless tiles need to have seams. The size of the seams:
1. The tiles should be left with seams. The wall surface should be 1-2mm. For some small bricks (100x100mm), for the sake of beauty, the seams need to be large.
2. Leave seams on the ground. In addition to retro bricks, you need to leave a larger gap (5mm-10mm). For other types of bricks, 3-10mm is generally better.
3. Special effects can also widen the gap, such as 5mm. Like some antique bricks or exterior wall bricks, balcony strip bricks, it is better to leave wide seams.
4. When paving the floor tiles (such as vitrified tiles, etc.), leave the seams at about 1.5-2mm.
How to leave seams on tiles? It can be positioned with a tile cross. Under normal circumstances, a piece of brick is equipped with a cross. If the 5mm cross is used after the brick is almost dry, it can be used three times, which can save some costs. However, the 3mm and 2mm crosses are not easy to remove, otherwise they are easy to remove. The bricks can be removed only after the bricks are completely dry. Therefore, it is generally difficult to reuse. If you don't want to take it off, you can put it inside and fill in the seams and you will not see it. It is recommended to buy one piece of brick with one cross.
