Every self-respecting man at least once in a lifetimemakes repairs in his apartment, himself or with the help of specialists. The bathroom becomes one of the most difficult premises during the renovation, and not only because it is associated with plumbing work. The bathroom is preferably veneered with ceramic tiles, and this is a serious professional task,
First of all, let's decide which holesdrilled before laying it on the wall, and which - after. Most modern bathrooms have sockets for connecting a hairdryer or electric shaver; in addition, cutouts for faucets above the bathtub and washbasin are needed. All these holes must be made in the tile before it is laid on the wall. Directly in the wall, through the tile, preparation for fixing mirrors, cabinets, shelves, hangers, etc. is drilled.
Before you start practicing how to drill tiles, you need to have on hand all the necessary tools and fixtures:
Holes for sockets and tap outlets are madedirectly in the process of lining. Having reached the place where the tile with a hole should stand, we make a marking: from the adjacent left and bottom tiles we measure the distance to the center of the floorboard, for example, and mark it on the tile already laid on a piece of plywood. Important! A sheet of plywood (not less than 10 mm thick) should be flat and lie on a flat surface - then the tile will not crack. On the mark, you can stick a piece of paper tape to prevent the instrument from slipping. How to drill? Tile firmly pressed with his left hand; in the right hand a screwdriver with a feather on the tile, with the help of which we drill a hole in the center of our mark. Then, without moving the tile from its place, we change the feather in the screwdriver to the bit with the crown, put it in the hole made and cut the hole of the size we need. Try on the tile to the hole in the wall and install it if they match. The tool for drilling should be powerful enough, but it is not recommended to turn on a high speed - there is a risk of splitting the tile and ruining the crowns. From time to time we pour water into the place of cutting from the bottle, so your crowns will last longer and will not be erased. How to drill tile, learned.
