Installation of
COUNTERTOP

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS | COUNTERTOP & WALL TILE | PAGE 1 of 5
• Tile may be
installed over most
structurally sound
substrates.
• Make sure surface
is clean, smooth,
dry and free of
wax, soap scum
and grease.
• Any damaged,
loose or uneven
areas must be
repaired, patched
and leveled.
• Remove any
moldings, trim,
appliances or
anything that
could interfere
with installation.
•
Find the center point of the wall,
using a level to draw a plumb line
in the wall’s center.
• Lay out a row of loose tiles across
the bottom of the wall from the
center line leaving uniform joints
between tiles.
NOTE: Tiles can be butted together
leaving a consistent 1/16 in. joint
automatically.
TIP: If cuts leave tiles smaller than
half to their original size, adjust
the center line a half tile closer to
the wall.
• Stack two tiles here. At the top,
draw a horizontal line on the wall
and continue the line around all side
walls to be tiled.

• Mix only enough adhesive
or mortar to be used
within 30 minutes.
• Using the type of trowel
recommended on the
adhesive package, spread
a 1/4 in. coat on the surface
of one grid area, using the
flat side of the trowel.
NOTE: Do not cover
guidelines or a larger
area than can be set in
15 minutes.
•
Use the notched side of
trowel to comb adhesive into
standing ridges by holding
trowel at a 45° angle.
• Remove excess adhesive,
leaving a uniform, ridged
setting bed.

• Begin with counter trim, then
set full tiles from the first row
working back thus all cut tiles
will be placed on the back row
against the wall.
NOTE: Trim pieces are
available for use around
recessed appliances.
• S
nap parallel chalk lines on the
substrate as needed to keep
rows straight.
NOTE: Tile countertops should
have a tile backsplash at least 4
inches high for protection.
TIP: For backsplashes, match up
joints with the countertop tile.

STEP 6: SETTING TILE
6
• Install tiles in the center, one grid at a
time. Finish each grid before moving to
the next. Start with the first tile in the
corner of the grid and work outward.
Set tiles one at a time using a slight
twisting motion.
NOTE: Don’t slide tiles into place.
• Insert tile spacers, as each tile is set,
or leave equal joints between tiles.
• Fit perimeter tiles in each grid last,
leaving 1/4 in. gap between tile and wall.
• When finished, tap in all tiles with a
rubber mallet or hammer and wood
block, to ensure a good bond and
level plane.
• Remove excess adhesive from joints
with a putty knife, and from tile with a
damp sponge.
• Do not use surface of tiles until they
are set (usually in 24 hours).
STEP 5: CUTTING TILE
5
• Carefully
measure tiles
and mark with
a pencil or
felt-tip pen.
• Make straight
or diagonal
cuts with a
tile cutter,
curved cuts
with a nipper
(chipping
away small
pieces for best
results), and
full-length
curved cuts
with a rod
saw. Smooth
out sharp-cut
edges with a
carborundum
stone.

• Using the instructions on the
package, make enough grout to
use in about 30 minutes.
• Remove tile spacers and spread grout on
the tile surface, forcing down into joints
with a rubber grout float or squeegee.
• Tilt the float at a 45° angle and remove
excess grout from surface immediately
with the edge of float.
• Tilt it at a 90° angle and scrape it
diagonally across tiles.
• Wait 15–20 minutes for grout to set
slightly, then use a damp sponge to clean
grout residue from surface and smooth
the grout joints, rinsing sponge often.
•
Let dry until grout is hard and haze
forms on tile surface, then polish
with a soft cloth and wait 72 hours
for heavy use.
NOTE: Don’t apply sealers or polishes
for three weeks, and then only in
accordance with manufacturer’s
recommendations.

STEP 8: INITIAL CLEANING
8
• The complete removal
of grout and construction
dirt after products have
been installed will improve
daily maintenance.
• Clean successfully by
scrubbing the installation
with hot water and a pH
neutral liquid cleaner
(soapless), followed by a
thorough rinsing, then remove
the rinse water with a wet
vacuum or dry toweling.
• If some residue remains,
further cleaning will need to
be done in consultation with
the grout manufacturer.
• For more aggressive
cleaning, scrubbing machines
equipped with nylon pads
or brushes should be used.
Wet vacuuming of the
suspended dirt and grout
is recommended.
