Installing Your Mohawk Ceramic Tile

Step 4: Cutting Tile

Customize the shape of your Mohawk Ceramic Tile and you can simultaneously achieve the perfect fit while adding a dose of creativity.

Start by marking carefully measured cuts-to-be with a pencil or felt-tip pen on the tile surface. You can use a tile cutter to achieve pinpoint straight or diagonal cuts. Make masterful curved cuts with a nipper, chipping away small pieces for best results.

For any full-length curved cuts, a rod saw is most properly-suited to handle the task. After your cuts are made, smooth out any sharp edges with a carborundum stone to give a soft finish to your tile.
