What should be done if tiles are noticeably uneven after installation?

When tiles are noticeably uneven after installation, the appropriate action is to remove and re-install them, ensuring proper leveling and adhesive application. This approach is crucial because uneven tiles can lead to several problems, including tripping hazards, an unprofessional appearance, and compromised durability of the installation. Proper leveling at installation is essential to ensure that each tile adheres correctly and aligns seamlessly with adjacent tiles. It also helps to prevent issues like cracking or loosening over time, which could occur if the substrate beneath the tiles is not even or if the adhesive application was insufficient. Taking the time to correct the installation during this phase reduces future maintenance needs and enhances the overall quality and longevity of the flooring.
