    My guy I move in to my house in 20 days and I am a plumber and was a stone and brick mason for 6 years and I am going to be doing a lot of stuff to this house my self. You basically have a full playlist on my TH-cam 😂. Great job man keep it up. House looks 👀 great.

    I appreciate the disclosure about not being a professional tiler and that you're open to better way of doing things. I've watched SO MANY tiling tutorials on TH-cam in preparation for some DIY tiling and you're the FIRST to make such a comment, cheers! Pretty much EVERY tutorial I've watched so far goes about tiling VERY differently without ever acknowledging WHY their chosen method is superior or that they're aware of alternative methods AT ALL. It's actually really disheartening when people giving tutorials do so with such confidence and authority without ever acknowledging that there could be a better way. All they would have to do is search for like tutorials to see just how differently other people do things. So again, I thank you for your honesty and humility.

    Great video 👍 Im nee to tiling and already started tiling my shower walls, what would be the ideal choice of trowel for 12x24 wall tile? I read everywhere that I have to go with 1/2 inch notch, i started using 1/4 x 3/8 which is stated to be used for 12x12 tile and 12x24 is essentially two 12 inch tiles fused together, so i see no point in using 1/2 trowel at all, especially that you have no room to move the tile to collapse ridges.

  • @peterhoward8461
    @peterhoward8461 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What I was looking for, and thought I saw, is that tile is cut through out the tiling process - Not all cut prior to install.
    Also, since the Thinset is good for four hours (+/-) did you mix part of it several times through the process?
    Finally, bucket cleanup. I assume the same bucket is used for each batch of Thinset. How did you prepare the bucket before its next use? How was the waste disposed of?
    Thank you in advance. Great video - Thanks for sharing.
