Hello,

our mid-terraced house will be finished at the end of May. We are currently looking for a tiler.

Our question is, can the basement be tiled immediately because of the moisture?

I have heard that the walls in the basement should only be painted in 1-2 years because the house has moisture and also brings moisture when moving in.

What about the floor tiles in the basement?

Why should it be different in the basement than on the ground floor or upper floor? Of course, every moisture should be given the chance to escape before being enclosed.

So, tiling will be done on the ground floor, first floor, and attic. By the builder. But we are unsure about the basement. What do you advise? What have you done? What experiences have you had?

If the moisture in the screed is below a certain value x, you can tile.

Can someone determine the value X and with what can it be measured simply and cheaply?

How fast would the basement dry approximately if it runs through?

3-4 days? 1-2 weeks? 1 month?
