If the slope is not so great that you can actually walk on it, then the tiles could satisfactorily be laid. A. Some slope is ideal as it allows water to drain freely away.

Provided the surface and supporting framework are structurally sound and the surface is even, the tiles are an ideal and cost effective way to bring an existing deck back to its former glory. The pressure on the tile base is normally distributed in such a way that no damage will occur. However if you wish to take additional precautions, then we suggest laying down a suitable geotextile mat before the tiles are laid.

If the tile surface is suitably even and meets the requirements for laminate flooring in terms of the subfloor (see above) then it is in principle possible. Any unevenness or variations in height in the tile surface can be evened out with an insulation mat. Contact with your manufacturer to check on your specific case.

A reasonably smooth, hard surface, like concrete, is best. However, the tiles can be laid over almost any surface.

Ceramic tiles can be laid outside and are often seen laid in the front garden walkway of Victorian villas. Cold and sub-zero temperatures in winter and hot temperatures in summer months will not damage the tiles and the density of ceramic makes it almost impenetrable to moisture and subsequent freezing. However if a tile cracks owing to an accident etc.

Should you stain a tile never use acid or an acid based product on carreaux de ciments tiles as the acid will dissolve the slip on the surface of the tile. Any stubborn stains can usually be removed with a specialist alkaline based tile cleaner. To protect a newly installed floor it must be waterproofed and sealed as carreaux de ciments tiles are porous and will stain (you can also make the floor shinier and add lustre as carreaux de ciments tiles in their clean state are 'matt' or 'flat').

Metal substrates are incompatible with conventional cement base adhesives and they tend to have very low dimensional stability. Nevertheless, it is possible to lay porcelain tiles on a metal stair case if the guidelines given below are followed.

No, not without a seperating layer of plywood or cement sheet mechanically fixed over the existing. Rubber and Bitumen are not compatible with PVC and the adhesives used for PVC will not bond to rubber or bitumen. The thermoplastic properties of the 3 membranes mentioned are totally different and even if they could be bonded together, there would be different amounts of expansion and contraction between the two, causing wrinkling, bubbling and delamination.

Since the SwiftDeck and LinkDeck tiles are solid wood and attached to a plastic base, you need to take the same care as you would with a conventional wood deck, against fire.

In all cases, the ground should be firm, level and with a slight slope for drainage.

Yes they can, providing (1) an appropriate adhesive is used and (2) joints are properly taped to prevent tiles lying above the seams from cracking.

No! One end of The WaterFall systems slides under the first course of shingles. The other end snaps and locks securely onto the lip of the gutter. No nailing is required.

Commercial roofs can be sealed with an Elastomeric coating applied directly to the concrete cover. Rubber Membranes can Steel Rib systems can also be applied directly. More conventional finishes (such as residential shingles) can be installed over furring strips which are anchored directly to the concrete cover. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper applications.

Whenever a permanent roof is constructed over a deck or structure, where such roof structure is attached to any other structure having a full foundation, the structure upon which the roof is being constructed shall be supported by a foundation or trench footing wall to below the frost level, which is 42 inches below grade.

Black Rock City is organized as 2/3 of a circle. There are axes on each half hour, from 2:00 to 10:00, intersecting with ten concentric semi-circles. You will be given a map of the city upon your arrival. Center Camp (the center for civic activities) is in the middle of the curve, and the man is a little over 1/4 mile north out from the center.
