Substrate and waterproofing before the first tile
A tile is only as flat as the surface it is stuck to. A wall left with holes and old adhesive after the old tiling came off is levelled first, and the floor is checked with a straightedge and spirit level so that water in the shower area runs to the drain. In a bathroom, waterproofing goes on the floor and the lower part of the walls before tiling, with tape in the corners and around pipes, because grout alone does not hold water back.
The adhesive is chosen for the substrate and the place: one kind for underfloor heating, another for a balcony, and large-format tiles need adhesive both on the back and on the substrate. Grouting is done once the adhesive has set, and the joint between a bath, a shower tray or the floor and the wall is sealed with silicone, not grout, because those joints move.
What changes the price per square metre
Tiles are charged per square metre, but the same square metre does not cost the same in every bathroom. The price changes with tile format and laying pattern, the number of cuts around pipes, risers and windows, edges and trims, and whether the old tiling is removed and the substrate levelled. A small bathroom has many corners and cuts on a small area, so it is charged by the actual work involved.
In Belgrade flats from the 1970s and 1980s the bathroom is usually renovated together with the pipes, so the tiling goes on only once the new pipework is finished and pressure tested. It is wise to buy tiles with a reserve for cutting and breakage, from the same batch, so that a later repair matches the shade.
