I see that the Brigadier is simply a cry from the heart :)))))))))))))))))))))) But seriously, I agree in many ways, saving on construction mixtures (glue, grout, waterproofing, etc.) is actually low in relation to savings on finishing materials or wages. It’s the same as preparing a festive table, and in the hope of saving on napkins, offer guests pieces of newspapers or toilet paper :) If you put the master within the framework of using the CPR, he will 100% use this to relieve himself of responsibility for the result or increase the cost of the work.
I agree about the confidence. If you have complexes about education, there is no other way to get rid of them :))))))))))
And also, colleagues, am I the only one who finds the word TILES hurting my ears (or my eyes ;))??? How to lay TILES.. where to buy TILES... which TILES are better, etc. Since we claim to be a professional community, let's be closer to professional terminology. There is no such material as TILES, there are CERAMIC TILES. Otherwise, it won’t take long for you to slide down to the floor tiles :))))))))))))))))))))
Let me disagree with you Vasily, the criteria for professionalism in laying ceramic tiles do exist, and there are standards and requirements... To begin with, you can familiarize yourself with the instructional and technological maps for institutions of primary and secondary vocational training, although they are old and In many ways they are not relevant, but the main postulates are clearly indicated there. Another thing is that our customers are not spoiled by the quality of tiling work, hence the opinion that there are no professionals in the field of laying ceramic tiles.
By the way, regarding the tiler mentor, if you find such a mentor, don’t get carried away, you can easily become a hostage to someone else’s experience. And the world of ceramic tiles is big, and it’s constantly evolving :-)
Do I understand the essence of the question correctly, should I attend special educational institutions or professional courses on laying ceramic tiles, or should I learn everything on my own in practice? If so, my advice is to concentrate on practice. The work of a tiler is largely an acquired skill; the necessary theoretical basis is actually minimal here. And modern educational institutions, unfortunately, are concentrated mainly on it. If possible, you can, of course, listen to lectures - it won’t be superfluous, but practice in laying tiles comes first!
This is actually a fairly common practice. We have enough alchemists :) But the result is unpredictable in any case and, of course, claims will not be accepted if something happens.
