Use a Tile Leveling System for Perfectly Even Tile Installation - Here's Why!

After hours of hard work laying tile, you step back to admire your finished project only to notice that your tiles aren't level. This frustrating issue is caused by not using a tile leveling system. But what exactly is tile lippage?

Tile lippage occurs when there are irregularities in either the tile itself or the substrate below. These peaks and valleys can cause tiles to either sink into the floor or bow upward, creating a lip at the edge of the tile. This lack of proper adhesion can lead to tile breakage and an unsightly appearance.

To avoid these issues and ensure a flat surface with secure tile bonding, a tile leveling system is essential. These systems not only prevent tile lippage, especially with larger format tiles but also promote full adhesive coverage, prevent settling, and save you time and money.

The benefits of using tile leveling spacers include preventing warping, maintaining uniform flatness, ensuring identical tile gaps, limiting tile lippage, speeding up tile installation, and reducing the need for tile redo projects.

So how do you use a tile leveling system? Start by spreading thinset and laying a tile as usual. Slide a tile leveling clip or base under the tile and adjust it until it sits flush. For longer tiles, use more clips to ensure all corners are level with neighboring tiles. Then, use wedges and pliers to tighten the clips, creating a flat surface across the tiles.

When it's time to grout, knock the disposable clips away with a mallet for clean grout joints. Remember to clean up excess mortar and thinset to make clip removal easier and keep grout joints clean.

To determine how many clips you'll need per square meter, refer to the chart provided to calculate based on your tile size. Our value pack includes 2000 tile leveling clips suitable for tiles 1/8" to 1/2" thick with 1/8" grout joints.

Using a tile leveling system not only saves time and money but also guarantees a lippage-free tile installation. Don't hesitate to contact us if you encounter any issues with our rigorously tested tile spacers. We're here to provide support within 12 hours for any quality or quantity problems.
