hey what if a contractor did this as opposed to removing and replacing?
it happened to me. the floors are uneven he put a transition but it's not what i wanted or as promised
Wesley already new some building basics from my Father
What the names of things you put before put the tile ??
Do you have a video on tiling Terracotta tiles over concrete slab? I need to tile my 20X24 feet patio
As I said below...I'm DISABILED, thus don't get out much anymore, nor am I able to drive, alas...I'm too, unable to attend though I'm certain I'll be miserably sad of my unfortunate circumstances & pleasure of meeting you. 😑
This guy’s hypnotic. I was looking for something else entirely before I realized I was twenty-six minutes into this video and I don’t need to tile my shower.
This is my second time watching this video. 😂
Deng i dont realise until read your comment
same here. I was looking for swimming videos and for some reason this caught mu attention ( entirely unrelated to my search) watched till the end, so hyped right now! needed more and started reading comments,
🤣
I agree:)
This video inspired me, a 71 year old novice, to redo my entire bathroom. Jeff is a wealth of information and inspiration. I am so grateful. I watched his other videos on how to install plumbing fixtures, ceiling exhaust fan, radiant heat cables under my pebble floor, and more. The results are beautiful. Wish I knew how to share before and after pictures.
i'm a 70-year-old novice myself and this gives me courage!!
@@songvector Go guys!! 👍
Same here, 66 year old female, l do all my own D.I.Y, this guy is amazing and easy to follow. New sub. 😊
I tiled right over the existing tile of my shower by following Jeff's instructions. It came out great! Just take your time and follow each step exactly. My first shower came out so good that I am now starting the second one!
Hi Kevin, can you please share the before and after pictures
Does it take away from the space you have in the shower
@@justbeinray-DiY Yes, but does a quarter to half inch matter?
Hi,is your tile job in the shower still holding up??
Jeff is the craftsman tiler and handyman virtual father we all needed. lol
I have been struggling with the thought of bathroom renovation because the cost is outrageously high if I get someone to do it. This video is a life saver as I’m slowly preparing to DIY without removing the tiles. What a wonderful video, thanks, Jeff! You probably save my marriage too lol
Me and my ex are exes because he wouldn't help me do a bathroom or even let me do a bathroom on my own. You are a wise man
My wife is going out to work tomorrow and I’m ripping my bathroom apart in the morning. Shower pan and tiling ahower
Omg, THE BEST!! Super informative, love how he doesn't glaze over steps like so many other videos. Super comprehensive, in a calm voice, with a "can-do" spirit. What a MAN - such a fan!!♡♡☆thank u!
I watched your Video out of curiosity. I've been doing Tile for over 50 years. Buddy, this is the BEST dam Tutorial I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing it with the DIYer's. I real treat to watch!
Cheers Lolly!
how I now my wall strong
@@hiamalkhameesi203 push hard. It will crumble if it's not sturdy. Mine is collapsing. I have to do mine down to the studs. I'm just watching all kinds of tile videos to get tips.
LOL Put the crack pipe down. Where did you install tile? Cambodia? There are so many things wrong with doing it this way, and his tutorial, I wouldn't know where to start.
I did a complete DYI reno on my bathroom. Your videos are straight forward, easy to understand and made the job go smoothly. I used Mapei Aqua Defense to seal the tub area and that product is all it says it is. What I like about your videos is you get straight to getting the job done, you talk along the way which is perfect and usually answers any questions one might think to ask. Thank you for the very informed videos. I would not have been able to do this project without your guidance and assurance that I could do it myself!!!
Protect Jim at all cost. The tile mafia are probably EXTREMELY pissed at this gem of a video 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
There is no such thing as a tile mafia. There are either professional tile setters, mediocre tile setters and just plain hacks. A smaller percentage are really pro tile setters. I put this guy somewhere in the middle as far as knowledge. Having said that, there is nothing wrong with wanting to save money and doing it this way if you know the drawbacks also, which he doesn't address here. He wasn't honest as to why a professional wouldn't recommend doing it this way, and it isn't the money. As a tile setter myself for 35 years, I wouldn't do this in my home just to save money, unless it was just some secondary bathroom in good shape that doesn't get used as much and even then I might just decide to tear it out and do it the professional way. There are many reasons I wouldn't do it this way that have nothing to do with money.
Im no contractor but my mom and i learned what we can about this kind of work to do our own home improvements/renovations. We never had the money to hire professionals but used books and videos to our best advantage.
Good job!
I've been looking for a solution for several YEARS. Thank you!
You know what I love about this video? He didn't use a wooden baton to start the first row. In the UK they are completely obsessed with that, I love the way he just cut the tile in half, stuck down and got busy. Respect.
Bob Ross of renovations 💕
I’ve watched the video several times ... Jess always has answers from simple to complicated /unheard of projects like this! Thank you! I’ll be tacking my shower - a major project for me :))
You’re so generous with your knowledge. I always want to try stuff myself but like it done correctly. I’ve spent three days watching your videos. Everyone in the house is getting hungry and having to fend for themselves. Thank you for your knowledge. Great videos.
I was a tile contractor for 25 years and I always removed all metal fixtures, soap dishes, and covered the tub with a heavy canvas in case I dropped a tile or something on the tub corner. That way you do not chip the tub finish. I have had great luck with redguard although Mapai products are good too. One last thing. I always spread my thinset level across the shower wall so that I can lay a nice even bed of mortar and I go to wherever 3 or 4 rows of tile will reach. Like if the tile is 11 3/4 inches, I spread 36 inches level across the wall and lay those 3 rows, then do the next 3 rows. I like your videos
Wow. I just got a quote from a company that does acrylic showers. The list of what they could not do was longer than what they could do. Bottom line he quoted me - with a straight face - $20k for basically three pieces of acrylic. A bottom piece and two sides (the other two sides are glass). Of course ripping out the existing tile is part of their approach.
Needless to say Jeff has absolutely inspired me to go over the existing tile. Don’t think I have any mold issues but what the heck go ahead and do the water membrane for good measure.
Thanks Jeff!
P.S. I’ll take some before and after photos and post them if possible.
You just saved me a bunch of hours of drywall work. Great stuff, thanks for taking time to make the videos.
Happy to help. Cheers!
Who dis-liked this video?! This is golden! I'm in process of buying a house and this may come in handy; I've seen a lot of houses with pink, green. and yellow tile, lol. I never knew this was possible! It would def save a lot of money.
Contractors!
Retro-colored tiles are killer cool. Something to savor rather than replace.
Thank you. Just what I needed (retiling over fireplace). You make things so easy to understand, and enjoyable! Thanks again.
Great job Hana! Merry Christmas
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Hi thank you very much this tutorial was very helpful. Just one thing I've seen the membrane used with tape but you didn't use it, is this not a necessary step?😊
I am so grateful for honest people like you! I truly wish you could do our bathrooms. Thank you! 👍🏻
NEVER IN MY LIFE DID I THINK IT WAS POSSIBLE!! Thank you SOOOOOOO.... MUCH! 👍👍👍
Hi Kari, this is not the best plan for long term but will definitely make it possible to have a nice shower for another 10 to 15 years for a good price. Cheers!
Neither did I ,A big money saver for a new look..
Home RenoVision DIY one time o went to Home Depot and asked them if I could put tile over tile and they laughed 😭😭 jajajaja now I know that sometimes when people think they know everything they don’t know nothing 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 awesome job
dont do it....!!
Just 2 weeks ago I couldn't stop watching sport highlights. However, after watching your videos night and day, I have gained the confidence in remodeling my mother's bathroom. You sir, are amazing for sharing your expertise with the world. Definitely this channel is worth subscribing.
we used your procedure once and it came out beautiful. We are doing our second shower now. Thanks for the information it was a big help
I swear i always wondered why putting tiles over your current tiles wasn’t an option. I am so glad I accidentally ran into this video. I am a first time home owner and purchased a new builded home. Home came with everything standard and i am ready to do some updates together with my husband. I already shared this video with him so we can start planning. Cant wait
Literally was wondering the same thing cus I hate the tile. I don't want to do a big thing in the bathroom when the tub tiles are all I want to change! As a first-time homeowner, I'm excited as heck to find this video. I'm hoping it will work for us!
LOL!!! 😂 me too…I close in two weeks (Dec 2022) just a few days before Christmas and everything (wall and ceiling paint throughout, all cabinet and door hardware, lighting, carpet) has to go - what a shame but my own style will make the house into a comfortable home. I’m looking forward to it and I’m not. 😂 it’s a lot of work.

Hey did you do this? I'm about to do the same. New build but hate the shower wall
Exactly the same for me! I did a Google search, and this came up. Getting ready to get started! Goodbye 1967 aqua tiles!
my wife told me that this could be done and I did not believe her. Now I see this can easily be done. Thanks for the great video.
Cheers Jack!
Why didn't you believe your wife??? 🤔
@@wendym5086 😅😅😅
I didn't even know this was possible! Saved us thousands of dollars since we are wanting to retile two of our bathrooms before April.
Well, did you?
PEOPLE!!!! PLEASE UNDERSTAND ITS ABOUT $400 IF YOU DO IT YOURSELF. DO NOT CALL AROUND TELLING INSTALLERS YOU SAW THIS VIDEO AND THE JOB SHOULD ONLY COST $400. LOL
I love this channel great tips, thank you!
Your videos are so useful! We did our kitchen backsplash after watching several videos. The wall was a vinyl sheet, so I treated it like tile over tile and used Mapei ECO Prim Grip. It worked so well. The job looks great. Thanks for sharing your knowledge to we DIYers.
cheers again!
To learn how to grout your project follow this link here: th-cam.com/video/dxPmaMQYkOU/w-d-xo.html Cheers!
Send me the name wht did you use please
What if it is a shower stall(tile on the floor), no tub in the bottom would you still recommend this method? Bough my first house last August watch your videos all the time!
Can you please tell me if you van use this on a tub surround?
Awesome
I was thinking of doing both bathroom and backsplash
Question guy who did my backsplash in the basement kitchen did horrible job ugly tile there it’s wavy not level guess he didn’t grind cement foundation behind it .
If I’m tiling over that how can I level existing tile?
Cement type?
Wait till it dries level then glue I guess
Makes? Tips would be great
Love your channel
Home RenoVision DIY what type of drill did you use to mix the grout? I see has a cord and it seems a bit heavy duty.
You gave me hope! 😊
I'm glad I found this video today.
We used this system and it worked great! Going to do a second shower. Highly recommend!
Jeff is amazing. I couldn’t even hammer a nail in a wall…. Now I have confidence in that I can do this. I’ve done so many upgrades in my home because of Jeff
Love your video's. Lots of homeowners can't afford to tear out the whole bathroom. I have a long 1960's bathroom tiled on the floor, shower and half way up the walls. The quotes I've gotten to update it completely out of my price range so we've just lived with it. This is a great option.
Hi Beverly, you are exactly the kind of person I was thinking about when I made this video. You represent 80% of homeowners out there. Cheers!
Thank you so much for posting this. You've given me hope that I can still get my dream bathroom after all. I live in a condo and under the renovation rules, we're not allowed to strip off the existing tile. I'd just about resigned myself to accepting the existing (ugly) tiles when this showed up in my feed. ♥️
Question! Should I use the Eco Prime to do tile on tile for the front of my fireplace? Or just do the sand down the glaze?
we are doing our fireplace as well. currently has tile and would like to place stone ledgers on top. wondering how yours turned out? Did you end up using the Eco prime?
Thank you for all the time you take to explain the process and your honesty.
I can't wait to start, but I will take your advice and take my time, be mindful of the detail and enjoy the process. I feel like you're the uncle I wished I had . I will call you uncle anyway. I can't wait to show you the finish.
Man its wonderful to see how this channel has grown(was around 15k subs when I originally joined), some people are just really good at explaining things and taking the fear factor out of DIY. Great job Jeff, you make these jobs look easy!!
Thank you Rocket Creations for hanging in there with us! This project However is actually just as easy as it looks. Cheers!
Can I use blue max as membrane. I noticed what you use it flat and when I used blue max on cement before flooring it was a bit glossy
A n incredible lifesaver for those of us on a budget! And its so true what was said about contractors. I asked about new tile, and next thing I know, all anyone wanted to discuss was 5-10 grand for a total renovation! I have experience tiling my own kitchen so this should be easy-peasy if I adhere to the directions :) Thank you so much!
A contractors pet hate is people pretending to want something but only looking for tips on how to do it. I suspect what the contractors did is, in the trade called ‘Pricing Yourself Out of the Job’, just to get away. Not trying to be mean but you said you had experience and thanked here for the extra info you needed. 2+2=......
Only you know the answer
Did you do it?
The kitchen is different stuff it is a dry area.
This channel is so good. Almost didnt remember to double check the fixture to ensure shower handle can turn after additional tile-on-existing-tiles increased thickness of overall wall
Your voice is so comforting I could listen to you all day but I actually need to learn this stuff so bonus!
Thank you for not being selfish and sharing with us all!
Thanks for that. Every quote I got on my bathroom was at least $15-20k !
you know they price you not really for the job but for where you live most of the time. At least where i live in Santa Monica CA
Jeff. I don't know if you read these but 2 years ago just before lockdown I discovered your videos. I bought and renovated a house by using all of your tips and ideas. I sold the house 18 months later and made £25000 ($40k??). It is extreamly difficult to find tradesmen in the uk now due to a crazy building boom. You are seriously changing lives and helping people do expensive jobs for a fraction of the cost. Salute to you sir!
I'm so glad to stumble upon this video....I was watching a video on how to assemble a corner shower organizer which came without paper instructions. Any way, this video is super helpful because we are purchasing a house which requires remodeling, adding living space and finishing existing areas. The only bathroom in the property has pink and light green tile...not ideal. Rather than going with a demo cost and new install which is outside of fixing budget, this is the perfect solution!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge...I don't like to go to FB unless required, but your videos are worth sharing with the whole world.
I wish you lived in my household!! You're a true blessing.. an awesome instructor, very thorough and you really think of the guy or gal who may run into bumps along the way as a 1st timer! Thanks for the play by play..you're a cool dude. Staying tuned for sure!
That is funny I thought I should bring him to my house!
I've got dibs on him!
Brilliant! Wasn't looking for this but I needed this! Thank you for your candor and well edited format!
Great video Jeff. I don't think I'd be done in a day but you seem to have a great helper. I too wish they sold the liquid membrane stuff in quarts but I have resigned myself to the $65 gallon tubs. Aquadefense is what I use for no particular reason
First time watching you had me hooked you have literally changed my world as moved in to a bungalow the tiles are old and not good so this video has shown me how to do it myself and quarter of the cost thankyou sir
My opinion step 1 should be: remove all shower fixtures and tape a drop cloth off into the tub to protect it from spillage and debris.
I wish he was in Trinadad cos my bath room need a make over
He did remove the fixtures but did not record that part. He does mention later that you have to pay attention to the depth of the tile to ensure that you can still turn the handle or fixture after installing another layer of tile.
Prep is 90%
The only things you forget is this man has done this for years, he surely knows what he is capable of and it’s loss of time in minor cleaning..too funny the comments and critiques. End result speaks for itself and his quality videos
@@bertmeza8673 this is better than the remove glaze, blah blah blah. I think he appreciates that most of us are dunderheads when it comes to this kind of stuff. But there is the attitude of a lot of us is what the hell. Give it a shot. I'll add this to my list of things to do when I get my totally ripped muscle in my right shoulder not in such pain. I hope you're having a good memorial day. Peace.. Gail in Central Florida. May 31, 2021.
I DID this for a shower!! (Thank you, sliding door video!) It came out beautifully. And everyone loves it!One suggestion. Add a v/o edit in the video explaining filling in and securing the schluter edging. If you aren't wedging it under the old tile, just butting it up against the cut line like I did. This was tricky and hard to keep laser straight. Holding it in place while the mortar dries is a loooong time! Thanks for all that you do, Jeff!
A stainless roofing nail or 3 will hold it in place but if you install under new tile it shouldn't be moving
Everytime I have a project, you already have a video!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for these. They are just superb.
I was going to forgo the retile of my shower but this video gave me the confidence to jump right in. Thank you for such clarity.
EXCELLENT WORK! Never new tile over tile was possible. Thanks.
I just like the fact that you CAN tile over tile !
me too....
You can only do that if your structure is still solid and you don’t have any mold :)) ... so basically if your bathroom was remodeled in the last 5 years but you don’t like the job or design :))
Yeah no problem. I do it a lot. Building bathrooms for a living.
U do have to take some things into account.
Structural the walls need to be stable
Bonding of old tile
Are the walls flat
Size of the new tiles
This is fantastic! I can't wait to do this in my shower. Thanks!
I love the fact that, no matter what I'm working on, there's *probably* a Thorman video that helps me figure out a good way to do it. I only hope I can make how-to videos half as good as Home RenoVision one day. Thanks, Jeff!
the video that I've always been waiting for thank you very much, I am ready to renew my bathroom!
I been wanting to retire my bathroom for a long time and I didn't want to do the rip out and I'm so glad that I came across your video because the rip out yes contractors will cost you a lot of money for that not to mention it's a pain to do the rip out.... I can honestly say now I look forward to redoing over both bathrooms and retiring the showers in my condo thank you so much for your video and all the help That you provide it on tiling and the information that you provided in your videos
Glad to be of some help. Cheers and best of success!
Dude you rock. I have a bathroom remodel project and I am going to do likewise. Thank you for the great tip. Why spend thousands when you can get it done with a few hundred dead presidents. Thank you for the great tip. Love it.
Love it. Thanks for doing this for us crazy eyed newbs!
Great way to do this job it’s amazing thank you so much for your effort and time
Great, great video. I had so much concern about tearing down my shower walls, etc. This is great solution.
This gentlemans got a good personable gift for teaching...very engaging!
If you're using a quarter inch by quarter inch trowel you need to back butter your tile. You should never grout your corners or where the tile meets the tub. Always use 100% silicone on all joints and corners. When you're applying thinset on the wall don't go up too high or else it starts to dry. I put maybe two feet worth of thin-set up before tiling. I never grout on the same day. Guys like you keep me really busy. Thanks for all the work. P.S. always silicone in all your plumbing fixtures.
he pulled off the tile to show you the adhesion, so no, backbuttering isnt required if you have the experience this guys does with thinset
@@brekkohThe adhesion is laughable when he pulls it off
I love love love your work and style of teaching so much!! Thank u! I’ll never watch anyone else! Even if I ruin my whole house- still love u!! 😭😭
Finally!!! A way to do my bathroom that is not going to break the bank!!!! We have had so many contractors quote us thousands upon thousands of dollars when we knew it should not cost that. We are home DIYers so we had an idea of what the cost should be. Thank you so much. we can do this ourselves!!
Thank you so much for sharing your remarkable talent(s). Based on your simple and detailed video, I am confident that I can update and tile my shower. Many thanks. 😀
Blown away! amazing!!! There is no Better DYI Video on the planet or on TH-cam that beats this one.
You are so ridiculously Amazing Sir! Once again thank you for sharing!
Cheers for that!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY All true!
I tried this method in my kitchen it turned out beautiful. Thank u so much
Where in your kitchen did you use this method may I ask?
phenomenal_ms under the kitchen sink
I love your videos. You're so thorough and make everything look so easy!
This project I guess you can only do if the tile was done correctly last time.
I had someone do my very small bathroom about 2 1/2 yrs ago. He removed the tile which was all the lower 1/2 of of the room, then tiled only over the tub to the ceiling. Apparently, the walls weren't level and he didn't use spacers. So what should be beautiful subway tile is a hot mess with terrible and inconsistent grout lines and uneven tile. 😭
I agree w the hypnotic comment! I'd love to have a Jeff clone in my life! Home improvement projects are my jam, but in the past I've worked w those that have a different vision of "done correctly" than I do. I live Jeff's practical approach and key tips where mistakes could happen!
What a great job, and I really like those tiles. I wish you could renovate my apartment. Keep up the good job.
You dont only teach us a lot stuffs, you even have a good taste in design. Love the Tiles you used. Cheers for this Awesome Job 🍻🍻
Thank you!
Your video saved me $800. That's how much tile guy wanted to rip out old tile, re-sheetrock and tile. Easy peasy. Brilliant!!!
Awesome video!! I took this project on while my wife was out of town because I know she would say it can't be done this way. Let me tell you, the transformation was amazing and I never cut a piece of tile before this project. In total, I spent around $1,300 for tools, tile, cement and other supplies (e.g., a laser level is a must) and around $2,100 to have a frameless door installed. The door installation was the only part of the project that I didn't feel comfortable doing myself. The shower door guy was blown away that I did it myself and that it was tile over tile. For the walk-in shower floor, I used penny tiles with an epoxy grout (Starlike EVO). I was a bit intimidated to try an epoxy grout because of the quick dry-time, but this product was very forgiving and I had no problems. Thanks so much for posting this video and for anyone out there thinking about trying this, I'd say go for it. Just take your time with the tile measurements and planning the tile placements. Cheers
Those hexagonal tiles look like something from the set of "Rowan & Martin's Laugh In", but give the customer what she wants. The technique is the same no matter what your tastes. Thanks for posting this.
That is why you need to shop at a huge tile store. There will always be something there you will like!
This is amazing! I'm going to try it in a small section of my bathroom first
Hi, how did it work? Did it go well?
After 49 years, I just discovered something special. Thanks buddy
Thank you great video, so helpful and easy to listen to. Makes perfect sense to tile over existing tiles. Very inspiring
just cutting the holes in the tiles for the shower handles and spout took me whole day.
This is the video I'm looking for. I don't like the hassle of having to remove the old tiles, installing new backboard and waterproofing and etc. Great Video. Thank You!!!!
Glad to help. Cheers!
Hi! I'm enjoying your videos. Thank you! I appreciate that you don't speak to people like they're either 2 yr old children or general contractors. Well done!
As a first time homeowner, I'm always searching for inexpensive reno ideas 💡 to update my home. This guy popped in my search and now I'm a forever subscriber!!! I never knew about the tile over tile method😳. So thankful this video found me.
Just did everything you did except it took me 2 weeks 😂
LOL< I totally get it. I am a little quick with the tile. Cheers!
Lol..2 weeks
@@johnsmith-qe2fd I did my research before doing it stupid. I got waterproof backer board added aquadefense waterproof membrane. Installed the tile, grout it, added sealant twice, waited 72 hours for it to fully cure. And finished it off with waterproof mold/mildew resistant silicone in all corners 😏
Thank you sir!
So that means for me is going to take me 1 month 🤣🤣🤣
Great vid!! I'm gonna do this. Few questions : 1. Near the tub, you didn't show how to finish - grout and silicone? 2. If shower hardware doesn't fit, how to extend out? 3. Glass shower door install video links not in description - pls attach. Thank you a million!!
Thank you for your video. We recently bought a 115 year old house and the bathrooms need so much help. Been binging your videos
Thank you, that’s a great idea,and saves so much mess,and it’s much cheaper. It’s a win win 😉
WOW this is an amazing work and so easy to do it by yourself, I really enjoying watching your videos and learning from them.
Cheers Roy, I hope this helps!
5 star vid - clear, concise and entertaining. Knows what he's talking about and conveys it in a way that is crystal clear. Heck, I even learned a better way to put on latex gloves
I'm 65 and never knew this was possible. Great news. Thanks
This man is a God of construction! I’m watching all these videos just to have an idea of what I could do for when we finally get a home. This is great!!
Jeff, Thank you for the tips. I have a friend that couldn't afford to redo her bathroom, then came along your Remodel Video and followed it down to a T. Obviously the materials is somewhat different but effective here in AU, She is amazed balls over her new inexpensive WOW factor bathroom for $520 aud. The initial cost to strip and retile her bathroom was $3324 aud. Huge savings DIY.
That is great news. I would love to see pics if possible. Cheers!
How much do the tile setters charge per sqft out there ?
Or square meter
40-45 A$ per sqm. We use metric system here
Hello Jeff, you got any tips on a walk in shower. I really enjoy watching your videos by the way. Keep up your awesome work 👏
I usually don’t use the links in the videos.. HOWEVER, I definitely will, with this one.. I have the exact same set up , with the wall then the toilet.. I’m gonna attempt this myself.. Jeff is so clear in his descriptions .. this one I really think I can do! ..
Good insight. Doing the kitchen sink wall tile over tile..just what I needed
Hello,
I am contractor in Arizona, the reason we want to Tearout the old tile and start from scratch. The plumbing fixtures 90% of them won’t fit back on.
Also we are required to warranty all of our work for 2 years. Going over someone else’s work we are liable for anything they may have done wrong. That’s why many contractors don’t want to tile over tile.
Plus we are registered contractors, so we have to follow building codes. Set by the state to protect homeowners.
Thank you for the explanation!!
This makes total common sense to me.
YEah but your labor is expensive so we will do our own work thank you very much
how does this guy rate in the eyes of a professional. Good, bad or ugly?
@@ceez3841 That's fine. Just realize that he is not being honest about the drawbacks that could go wrong, doing it this way. He is more concerned about promoting his DIY channel, I think. As a tile setter of almost 40 years, I wouldn't do it this way in my own home, either. Money has nothing to do with why we tear it out and do it all over again, like he dishonestly claims in this video.
@@kurtmcl I'm a tile setter of almost 40 years myself. He is mediocre in my opinion. Doesn't mean this won't work fine in some cases. If you do it this way, there are many things that could still go wrong, he doesn't mention. Easier and cheaper doesn't mean better. He is doing a good job of promoting his DIY channel and teaching cheap shortcuts. He could be more honest bout it. I get wanting to do things cheap and easy, and it's not always going to have terrible results, but there are good reasons why professionals do things the way they do that have nothing to do with just taking people's money away from them.
Hey hey, DYIer here (currently on month 9 of our whole house reno). Thanks for the videos! You have been a HUGE help. My experience with the bathrooms have been with redgard. I think I used 3 coats just to be sure we had full (and thick coverage). Hoping we wont have to redo anything anytime soon. Cheers!
sounds like you will be fine. Cheers!
So you have a husband to help? I didn't He got po'd if I asked him to do anything.. I'm glad you have someone to help you
@user-cx3jn7cq8e Haha! I am the husband. Its primarily been me doing the reno, but she specifically learned how to do skim coating drywall. I didnt have the patience or the attention to detail she wanted 😋
@@thehumantoeRD You two are hilarious! 🙂 And this argument is all too familiar ...
Woooow. When I saw this I became so excited!! Can’t wait to redo my bathroom!!
Awesome video. Wish I knew about this years ago when we first started doing flips! Great content!
