Paving sidewalk tile - work that does not like lazy

classical approach to the paved path to the device

basics first poured sand 2-5 cm thick, then gravel, a layer of 2-3 centimeters, then sand again.For a qualitative result in the cement slurry is also added to the sand (4 parts sand to 1 part cement).The solution was poured in a thickness of at least 2 centimeters.Tiles for paving often is put directly on the dry mixture, the proportions are the same.

But we must remember that this is only possible if temperatures above zero, if you want the strength was high.Humidity of the mixture can not be more than 1%.For such a paving mixture should be laid on a well compacted base.And it is not necessary to close a mixture of the entire area that you want to pave.To work was qualitative, taking sufficient basis for 4-5 rows of tiles.

Laid dry mixture should first pour water from a watering can, and then again to sprinkle dry cement.On top lay a tile, a better one row, then moisturize the next strip.The strength of this method of laying a sufficient, if it is also a well-sealed using a tamper or a special device called a vibratory plates.

value of "fitting" for paving slabs

Sometimes tracks made of paving slabs require pre-laying, that is "fitting", because it is not recommended to break this kind of tiles.It is necessary to put its "dry" to make sure that all the elements fit well on certain tracks to the frame.The starting tile is placed so that one of its angles was carried out at the intersection of the lines.

It needs to be pressed and the weight of their body weight using a trowel precipitate strictly by incised lines.Then the tiles are laid in two directions from the first. Each stacking row of tiles should also be strongly pressed against each other.When the fourth part of the work necessary to return to the opposite corner and fill out one more quarter, and so on.When laying need to protect or mark the edge, although it can be done without clear boundaries.

tile produced different kinds, it sometimes makes holes that can be used for planting plants that makes the track quite exotic.

What you need to remember the owner of paving slabs?

Tracks of paving slabs - is the most common version of the design and the most popular, because the material is produced very different shapes, sizes and colors, which gives room for imagination and for the most daring design decisions.

Grooming tracks their estates, remember that:

• There is a need to replace the metal fixtures on the plastic, because the tile is very poorly responsive to mechanical damage.
• It will be necessary to abandon abrasive cleaning agents and forbid her to work with children up to 14 years.
• Likewise prohibited from working on this surface with lacquer products as paint this tile is not removed.

Another option would be installation of concrete tiles 50x50 cm. This type of paving is easy to fit in any scale, even though he was not very fond of the inconvenience.
