INSTALLATION OF CERAMIC TILES - QUALITY CONTROL CHECKLIST

Check and verify that the latest drawing and tile installation pattern are approved.

Verify that the ceramic tiles, mortar mix, and grout material are approved, and that the same quality is used on-site.

Ensure that the mock-ups are approved by the consultant/client.

Ensure that the floor screed or wall plaster (if any) is in good condition and within the specified tolerances.

Check the alignment, setting out, floor level, and/or wall plumbness before installing the tiles.

Ensure that the floor/wall area is oil-free, clean, and dampened to receive the mortar mix, and dry to receive the adhesive.

In wet areas, check that the approved waterproofing is completed as per the manufacturer’s instructions and tested for leakage (raise an inspection request).

Verify that the application of the mortar mix to the floor and adhesive to the wall is done in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

Check that the ceramic tiles are installed according to the drawing pattern and the manufacturer’s instructions (ensure that the back of the tiles receives the correct adhesive coverage to prevent hollow tiles).

Ensure that all services are pressure-tested and accepted.

Verify the square corners at the wall/floor tile termination area.
