     As you can see the photo below, this bathroom had the old pink beige tiles before. It looked very outdated, and I didn't like the tiles very much. Now, the bathroom has clean and modern look. It wasn't easy to replace floor tiles, but I am glad that we finally did it. Today, I'm going to share with you installing the bathroom floor tiles. 

Preparing Underlayment
       After removing the old tiles and toilet, he leveled concrete floor and installed Schluter Systems Ditra Orange Plastic Waterproofing Tile Membrane.

Shopping Bathroom Floor Tiles
         First, we went to our local Lowe's. We looked for porcelain tiles because they are denser, harder and more durable than ceramic. We also looked for matte finish to prevent slipping on wet flooring. 

       I thought these black and white tiles are very stylish, but they are ceramic.

     We were looking for natural stone look tiles.

      We decided to purchase these grey Della Torre tiles for our master bathroom. However, after laying them on the floor, we thought that these were too dark. :( We realized that we love brighter look. Again, taking a lot of heavy and fragile tiles to our home was very hard, but we returned all of them and decided to look for different tiles. (I made the same mistake for our guest bathroom renovation...)

Installing Tiles
        We finally purchased the white calacatta porcelain tiles at Home Depot. I thought these were perfect! They look similar to our guest bathroom flooring but they are slightly different. :) He finally installed these tiles in our bathroom!

       For the grout, he used grey Fusion Pro Single Component Grout.

       I really love this bathroom floor. It has elegant and modern look. I love that it's very easy to clean and maintain. :)

      Next time, I'll write about toilet, paint, lighting medicine cabinet, window treatment and towel bars.
