How to ceramic tile a floor?
My bathroom floor is currently covered with linoleum. I plan to strip the floor of this down to the sub-flooring (wood). What steps will I need to take to ceramic tile my bathroom floor? What things will I have to buy and in what order from start to finish to go from sub-floor to completed ceramic floor?
Thanks!

Once the flooring is cleaned and ready to go. You ll need 1/2" cement board. My preference is Durock..Pre cut the Durock and lay into place. Cutting can be done with a hand cutter with a carbide tip or cut with a masonry saw blade (DUSTY!)..Dry fit the pcs, lift and sweep the area again. Spread a thin set with a 1/4 x 1/4 square notched trowel. Set board back into the thin set and walk on it all over. Nail down ( or screw) with 1 1/2" galvanized nails . Use nothing shorter.. 8 " in the field and 3/4" along all the seams. Tape all joints with thin set and cement board tape ( this is different from dry wall tape.)
Let floor dry 24 hrs.. You are ready to tile. Use the proper trowel for your tile. My recommendations are to use thin set and thin set only for tile setting.
Starting from the middle, dry lay tiles out to the walls.. If you have a 1/2 tile or bigger , your good. If less than a 1/2 tile, readjust center of the tile to the center line, this will get you a better wall cut.
Straight edges and tape measure to stay square is the best way to go.
All this is in accordance with the Tile Council of America guide book, Along with the TCA guidelines.
