DIY ceramic tile installation

Before starting the installation of ceramic tiles, the roofer must conduct the necessary calculations of the rafter system, taking into account the weight of the future roof, moreover, all kinds of potential loads, for example, such as snow. If there is a need, it is necessary to strengthen the rafter systems on the roof so that the stability of the roof to weight and also mechanical loads can be increased.

It is also worth noting that the angle of inclination of the slope will play an important role. On a more or less flat roof, the roofer may offer you to lay another additional layer of waterproofing.

In addition to all this, the roofer must calculate the step of the crate, taking into account the models of the tiles and, in addition, the differences in height. Then marking is carried out and the crate itself.

Now the stage of laying ceramic tiles is coming. A professional approach also needs here, because ceramic tiles are laid and fixed in a certain order, given the uniform load on the rafters and, moreover, focusing directly on the angle of inclination of the roof.

In addition, the correct installation of additional. elements such as ventilation passages, skating ventilation elements, sealing tapes, snow retention system — it is very difficult to perform on its own. Therefore, you can’t do without a specialist.

And in conclusion, I would like to say that by choosing a ceramic tile as a building material for the roof, you made the right choice.
