Homeowner Forum / Construction / February 2005Stone or ceramic tiles on concrete ceiling?
Is it possible to tile on concrete ceilings (ie. tiling upside down) with either stone slate or ceramic tiles? Thank you > Is it possible to tile on concrete ceilings (ie. tiling upside down) with > either stone slate or ceramic tiles? > > Thank you Yep. Done all the time, and it's pretty much a requirement for steam showers.

It won't help the OP to receive ridicule asking for thixotropic tile adhesive at his tile store. You can use modified thinset, epoxy thinset, straight epoxy - any of a number of setting materials. The part about the smaller tiles being easier is true to a degree. It is easier to set them for a less experienced setter, but the real difficulty is in heavier tile (per square inch). R |
