No More Soaking Tiles in Water Now
Long gone are the days when soaking tiles in water was required for the installation. This age old practice was not only unnecessary, but also time consuming too. However, with the modern technology and advancement in tile manufacturing, tiles are no longer required to be soak in water. Let’s dive into why tiles no longer need water before installation and how this new modern technology in manufacturing tiles is making work more beneficial and professional. But first let’s understand, why tiles were soaked in water. Why Tiles Were Soaked? Traditionally, tiles were made from porous materials like clay or terracotta. These material had the property to absorb the water very quickly and easily. Hence, in order to get proper installation of such tiles, it was necessary to soak them in water so that they don’t absorb water from cement or adhesive during installation process.
