A B S T R A C T TILE MOUNTING SYSTEM A synthetic plastics or other flexible but substantially inextensible tiling matrix 1 is provided defining an apertured portion 2 formed with openings 3, half-sized openings 5, and quarter-sized openings 4, one surface of the matrix portion 2 being provided with cruciform and rectilinear projections 9 between which tiles can be installed. The matrix 1 is secured to a wall or other surface that is to be tiled by use of an adhesive and the tiles are secured to that wall or other surface and to the matrix portion 2 by a conventional tiling adhesive following which grouting is installed between the regularly spaced apart tiles in a conventional manner. The projections 9 have a projecting extent that is less than the thickness of the tiles so that they will be concealed after grouting has been completed. Edges of each matrix portion 2 are provided with interlocking projections 6 and recesses 7 so that one matrix portion 2 can quickly and accurately be positioned in line relative to others. Projections 8 are provided to assist in alignment relative to the edges of walls, floors, ceilings and other surfaces and any guide lines that may be marked thereon. Areas of the matrix 1 that incorporate a lip to finish the free edge of a tiled area and areas thereof that are hingedly interconnected to flank angular corners between walls or other surfaces are both described and illustrated.
