Large Format porcelain tiles are becoming popular because of their style and less grout. These 24x48 tiles create a modern, durable, and easy to clean floor surface. Many considerations need to be made when installing 24x48 tiles or other large format tiles. It is necessary to do floor prep beforehand, which may include: grinding high spots; filling low spots with a patching compound or self-leveling underlayment (SLU); and/or crack isolation membrane. It is imperative to start with a flat surface within TCNA recommendations of no deviance greater than 1/4" in a 10' span. The proper thinset should be selected, preferably one that is rated for Large Format Tile (LFT) or Large Heavy Tile (LHT). We prefer Custom Building Products Prolite or Laticrete LHT.
