In renovations, the installation time of the door cover is usually before the carpenter finishes the work and the painter enters the site. This is because the customization of the door sleeve takes a certain amount of time, and it must be measured after confirming the size of the door opening to avoid the problem of size mismatch. However, one owner did not have enough understanding of the construction process during the renovation process, resulting in the installation of door casings before the tiles were paved. Although the owners thought that there was no problem, as long as the size was correct, when the bricklayer was ready to lay the tiles, they were very distressed and bluntly said that this was the first time they encountered this situation.
Some people may ask, what is the impact of the installation of the door sleeve on the bricklayer first? Isn't the tiling done as usual? On the surface, it may seem like it doesn't have much effect, but if the lines of the door cover are shaped, it can become very cumbersome when laying floor tiles. As can be seen from the figure below, the line of the door cover of the owner's house is shaped. The reason why bricklayers are troubled is that when dealing with the transition between floor tiles and door casings, it takes a lot of time to cut the edges of the floor tiles so that they fit perfectly with the lines of the door casings. Moreover, the bricklayer could not be charged separately at this stage, as no bill was issued for the project during the masonry stage. Although this does not normally happen, the masons have a lot of complaints about it. Despite this, judging from the floor tiles he handled, the effect is not bad, basically fitting with the lines of the door cover, and the gap problem can be solved by only some tile grouting.
It may be mentioned that when dealing with this kind of problem, it is usually sawed off a part of the door cover and the floor tiles are embedded under the door cover. This is convenient and aesthetically pleasing, and there are no crevice problems. In fact, if you're laying floors, it's really effective. However, when laying floor tiles, it is not possible to tuck them under the door cover, since the floor tiles cannot be laid dry, and the back must be smeared with cement. Even if it is forcibly stuffed in, the floor tile will inevitably have a hollowing problem. Therefore, it can only be handled in a more cumbersome way.
Although the owner is satisfied with this treatment, he bluntly said that the master is skilled and can cut the floor tiles to such a standard. Through this case, it also reminds everyone to understand the importance of the construction process when decorating. Although it is possible to remediate the process when the process is chaotic, it will undoubtedly take a lot of time and may even cause some losses. Therefore, it is best to avoid chaotic processes. In addition, it is also very important to understand the construction process, so you can find out by looking it up yourself. Have you ever made a mistake in the construction process during the renovation process?
