Why buy ceramic tiles for budget loss? How to control tile loss?

In addition to the purchase of good tiles, tile style and so on, but the loss of ceramic tiles can not be ignored. If you buy too many tiles, it will cause unnecessary waste. On the contrary, if the number of purchases is too small, There is a cumbersome replenishment process, so in addition to the actual amount of bricks used in the decoration before the purchase, it is also necessary to add tile loss.

So why is there a loss of tiles?

The main reasons for the loss of ceramic tiles are:

1. During the construction, the tiles will be cut and the work will be poor;

2, such as the shape of the house, if the house has many corners, arcs, the loss is relatively large;

3. The skilled level of the worker will also have a certain impact on the loss;

4. The size of the house and the size of the tiles do not match, resulting in cutting and loss.

5. Tiles are damaged in logistics, transportation and handling, increasing the abnormal loss of tiles;

6. Improper construction will also cause loss of ceramic tiles.

How much is the normal loss of ceramic tiles?

There is no uniform standard for the loss of ceramic tiles. The amount of ceramic loss is mainly related to the following aspects:

1. The scheme of paving is related to whether the tile is a straight paving or a diamond paving. Relatively speaking, the diamond paving will be more expensive than the straight paving;

2, the shape of the wall has a relationship, the more regular the wall surface, relatively speaking, the loss of the tile is small, the more corners of the wall, the size of the window and the door and the proportion of the brick are different, the loss of the tile is greater;

3. The proficiency of workers is related. The higher the level of workers, the smaller the loss will be, and the bigger the opposite!

Finally, how do you calculate the tile loss?

According to the experience of tile construction and paving, the overall loss of tiles under normal conditions is generally between 5 and 10%. Therefore, it is recommended to increase the loss by 5-10% when purchasing tiles.

First, the factors affecting the consumption of ceramic tiles

Tile loss can be divided into normal wear and tear that are difficult to avoid and abnormal wear that can be avoided as much as possible. Let's first look at some of the factors that affect the amount of ceramic tile loss, so as to take measures to reduce the amount of wear and tear.

1, space and tile size matching degree impact

The size of a batch of tiles is fixed, and the size of the paving room does not necessarily match the size of the tile. Therefore, the tile is usually cut, and the cut portion can be worn if it cannot be used. Generally speaking, if there are turns, arcs, etc. in the room, it is necessary to cut more irregular bricks, and the loss is correspondingly increased.

2, tile quality impact

Tile quality also has an impact on the amount of wear. Even if the quality inspection of ceramic tile products, there are more or less color difference, thin and thick, not square, etc., but this should be able to coordinate with the merchants. If the poor quality ceramic tile is selected, there are not only problems such as unfairness, but also it is easy to break during construction, which may cause unusable conditions, and the resulting damage is very large.

3, tile size specifications

The size of the tile also has an effect on the amount of wear. The larger the tile size, the greater the wear and tear. Because of the large size of the tiles, the cut parts are correspondingly larger.

4. Construction workers' proficiency

Tile paving is a work that requires a high level of craftsmanship. During the construction process, the tiles need to be cut and beaten. If they are unskilled workers, it is easy to appear during the construction process or break the bricks, or The size of the cutting is not correct, etc., which will undoubtedly increase the amount of wear and tear on the tile.

5, tile paving program impact

There are many kinds of tile paving solutions, and the tile consumption of different paving schemes is also different. In general, the wear of the straight shop is reduced, and the amount of bricks used for the diamond, the flower, and the like is relatively large.

Second, reduce the method of ceramic tile loss

The five main factors that affect the amount of ceramic tile loss are listed above. I believe everyone will know that to reduce the loss of ceramic tiles, it is definitely starting from the above 5 points and taking appropriate measures for different factors.

1, purchase attention to tile quality

When purchasing tiles, it is best to choose products with better quality. Don't try to choose products with good quality. When purchasing, it is best to agree with the merchant to change the conditions, such as whether it can be replenished, returned, replaced, claim conditions and responsibilities.

2, choose the right size of the tile

Earlier we learned that tile size has an impact on the amount of loss, so it is best to pay attention to the size of the tile when purchasing. Generally, the size of the visual space needs to be considered. If the visible area of ​​the paving area is small, a small-sized tile should be considered, and the tile size is small, and the amount of wear is relatively reduced.

3. Choose the right paving solution

The amount of tile loss by the special paving scheme is relatively high. If the average pavement loss is estimated, it will easily lead to insufficient tile usage. Therefore, before laying, firstly, the applicable room type and loss degree of different paving methods are clearly defined, and the actual floor plan can be used to communicate with the tile sales manufacturer to calculate which paving method is more economical.

4, calculate the amount of ceramic tile purchases

Before purchasing, you need to measure the area of ​​the tile in advance to determine the amount of tiles purchased. General tile usage block) = (planned tile area ÷ each tile area) × (1 + 5%), of which 5% is the general loss. However, this calculation method may not be suitable for all tile paving, such as irregular space paving and taking a large amount of paving for flowers.

The best way to accurately determine the amount of tiles is to draw a brick map. According to the size of the tile and the size of the paving space, the number of bricks is determined on the brick panel. The brick layout can also accurately reflect the size of the normal wear and tear, so that the owner can buy all the bricks needed at the time of purchase, no more, no excuses.

5. Choose reliable workers

Choose workers with high construction techniques. When cutting construction, it can reduce unnecessary wear and tear. In addition, when laying tiles, it is best to go to the site to supervise the work, to prevent workers from wasting.
