To begin, you should do one test tile to ensure that the consistency of the mortar is appropriate. Put the first test tile onto the thin-set bed. Lay the tile flat and then with mild pressure, slide the tile 1/4 inch back against the thin-set ridges, then slide it back into place.o start planning the layout of your tile, you must first find the center point of the room. To do this, measure the four walls in the room and find their midpoints. Then, snap two chalk lines. One from the midpoints of two opposite walls and another from the midpoints of the other two walls.
Spread it over the tiles and into the grout joints using the grout float. Use a clean damp sponge to wash excess grout from the tiles and smooth the joints at the same time. Allow the grout to set for an hour or so, then wash again with clean water. Buff with a dry, clean cloth as necessary.. Establish a starting point for the marble. If the surface you are tiling from (floor, tub, counter) is not level, draw a line using the level approximately one and a half tiles above the surface. If you get lucky and the bottom surface is level, just use tile spacers to hold the marble one joint width off the bottom.
