- In this video i will teach you how to install install 24x48 porcelain tiles. This project will have 24x48 porcelain tile shower. I will be using my rubi tile saw and show you how to cut tiles as large as these! I do think that this can be a DIY project, but for sure on the harder side of it!
In our opinion KBRS shower system is the best shower system out on the marker. The KBRS shower pan is much stronger than the one you would get with schluter shower systems. I personally think that the schluter shower system has way to many steps and the fact that you need to go to a two day training shows how complicated it is.

I like how you showed your mistakes. They literally happen to everyone all the time. It helps as a reminder. There is a lot of setup that goes into a tile job and the more prep work you do before, the lest adjustments you have to make later. Especially on the PLUMB line.
An hour and you already had a tile up.mThat’s actually fast!. I was a tile setter befor me they invented wedges lol. My layouts take an hour by themselves. Great work. Most customers have no idea that tile setters need to understand the structure and plan accordingly before even thinking about mixing thinset. To you DIY guys out there. If your tile setter arrives and starts throwing up tiles - your job is not done right. You want to look for lasers, levels and site protection. If trades are using those they are understanding the concept of being a professional tradesman. Seriously great content bud.
Thank you kindly always looking for insight
Newbie here. Can u lay all those tiles in one day? Won’t they fall ? I know they’re heavy
@@adrianlooez6162 I don't go all the way up. Because they are heavy.
You say you installed tile before clips but you say you need a laser? Lol. Real tile guys dont need a laser
@@Jack-russell103 Lasers, clips, better diamond blades etc all make tile trades jobs go quicker and a better quality installation. “Real” tile trades keep up with the times, dinosaur.
I was taught to always set the back wall of tile first, excellent work none the less my friend.
Yes, that's what I always do!
Yep, it makes the cut-gap face into the shower rather than be looking right at you as you approach the shower.
You’re a very secure person which is a wonderful trait.
You’re ability to tolerate filming your mistake for the world to see, own it and move forward with a positive spirit speaks volumes about your maturity and high level of distress tolerance.
I’m so impressed with you I subscribed. 👍🇺🇸
Bro it’s the attn to detail and being stoked when things fit nice and are lookin clean that makes building and creating fun and not work…awesome
Me and my wife have been running our own remodel company for about 20 years and I love your videos.Im always learning something new and I install alot of tile and I'm learning so many new tips and tricks love your Content
Hot melt glue works great to hold that schluter in place. Also handy to put dot on a tile that wants to move
I honestly appreciate you leaving in your mistake. It's more helpful to see you work it out on video rather than just quickly explaining it and moving on. Cheers!
Awesome, I was looking at these at Home depot. 8 tiles for my whole shower! Great job on the video.
Love it kid. Mistakes are best left in your videos. Gives the your community the lesson learned understanding. What's most appealing is your explanations and genuine guidance. This here is a good video. Cheers mate.
Thank you for being honest in the very beginning with the laser level instead of editing, and make it look like everything went OK thanks for being a real brother
I know it sucks to make mistakes, but thanks. It helps to see how a pro fixes them. Started with the wrong tile; no problem… here we go. Adapt, reposition, overcome!
I honestly like when I make them and record them. It’s so relatable. Wish more people did it! Thank you so much
Lasers are game changers but you should have started with the laser to figure out your layout. It would have saves you the wasted hour, lol
Looked plumb level to me 😂 everything I’ve seen you do so far has turned out beautiful in the end.
Thank you!
Luv to see you work through issues… not a train wreck, just re-adjust and hit it again!!!
Great video, but just a note. Large format tiles like these are not consistently 'flat'. There is usually around 1/8" deflection somewhere in the tile. This is probably the 1/8" gap you showed before you set the first tile - not the wall.. Also, checking this deflection is sometimes important when trying to figure out what size trowel to use..
Suggest you use suction cups to make lifting and adjusting tile easier
I saw you’re frustration and know exactly how you feel, I need one of those bridge saws and a laser, I’ve been installing some of the same tile this week, using grinder and wet sponge to cut and chalk line ect, for everything else LOL
I learned a ton at the 5:00 mark of this video! Thanks for including it in the edit!
That tiny 1/4 inch offset is a dealbreaker if you had already set that first tile!!
Props, and thank you very much.
Cause I would have that sucker glued in at that point!
Good stuff! Is easier to use suction cups to maneuver big tiles. Keep the good work!
Gosh I love your work. Inspiring to me I'd like to try this sometime
"And it just took us an hour :) " Lol, i feel that man. Sometimes the simplest things just end up taking longer than you think. Some days i don't know if it's me or just the job itself.
Haha right! So many clients are like “large tile” must be easier hahhaha
Thanks for the help I knew I needed to back butter but I was going to do it the other way so it was helpful
I like how you took shallow saw cuts on the long runs. I’ve had trouble keeping the cut straight and that method fixes that. But please lay out the lowest wall and then lay out and install the back wall first. Be sure to leave a gap with spacers at the bottom.
I Like this Vid Because the Guy Made And Showed Us his Mistakes And How to Fix them Thats How you lear not to make Mistakes on your wall
We are learning from mistakes as well as expertise. Thank you for your videos.
Your videos are refreshing and great learning tools…thanks!
Get a hot glue gun and use that 2 position and set your Schluter strip initially..
No men amateure do that
nice man ! recommend troweling short direction for air to get out set middle first then push air out, you ca use a euro trowel that self collapses ridges !
I saw those tiles at home depot today thats what im gona do whit my bathtub .thank you :)
Can't wait to see how you do the incognito panel! Love your videos
I scared to do it! I’m not 100% sure how to do it
@@WINNI.Designs good luck!
Hey guys I know I’m late to the game. Just stumbled across your video. I subscribed right away. You’re very entertaining and a fantastic teacher. looking forward to more videos👍🏻👍🏻
Very Nice! And when you said, "We got two tiles in today", I could feel you bro! Lol...
Haha it is what it is
Great information! You really don't grout the 16th of an inch grout lines?
Why didn’t you start on the back wall first? Isn’t it better to hide the seams and keep the vertical edges more straight looking when finishing the sides last?
That's right you go Winni
Thanks for sharing and I love the war paint!😂
Slainte,
DC
When you butter your wall do you not need to trowel the ridges on it if you back butter the tile with ridges????
Great Stuff! Thanks!
Brother thank s for sharing, God bless you
Hey man when you have a prefab pan like this it is really nice to have a level sub floor. A quarter inch from one side the other is getting close to water not draining properly. If it were a half inch you'd be in trouble (depending on how wide the shower is). It looks like you got about 2ft to the drain from the corner which would mean you have a half inch of pitch. Good work as always though man 🙏
Ps I love that you show these little mistakes. anyone that says these don't happen from time to time is full of it
Absolutely! I know I got a good pitch but I definitely could have done better
How do you collapse the thin set ridges on the top tiles when you can't slide the tile up and down because of the ceiling?
Some good suction cups would help. With tiles that big they are notch troweling both the tile and the wall.
Thanks Bro!
Back wall always first
Serious question: Do these systems like the KBRS you're using hold together if you have to remove a tile that cracks or chips? We float almost all of our showers and can float a patch if the mud comes off with the tile.
Can you put tile on the whole wall in one day or do you need to do it a couple rows at a time to let it dry?
Can you use PL 400 if you’re installing 24 x48 tiles on a fire place wall?
Can you link or tell what size and type clips those are? Also, how big is your grout line?
You got the sub, all due to the shirt. Amazing information thanks boss
very informative video,what are you using the thinset, is it ready mix thinset as i did not find any ready mix thinset for 24x48 tile?
Can I do a skim coat?/scratch coat the day before instead of Beck buttering same day
Hey Man great video I just bought the TZ -1550 61” Rubi. Having some issues with consistent cuts across the 24” looks like similar tiles to yours . Question do you think I should upgrade to the endurance wheel instead of that silver that comes with it?
Thanks bro appreciate your help.
Why the sides first and not the back wall first to hide the grout lines on the side from a front view
Did you installed the water proof membrane? Can you make a video on waterproofing shower?
Hi Winni! Love your videos, big fan on IG and now here! I was wondering if I can apply the guru waterproof membrane with the thinset over my plywood kitchen countertops and then install 24x48 porcelain tiles as usual? thank you big time for any tip!
i think most professionals would say that would be fine for a diy project...
that moment when you realize that the easy install you expect just got more complicated and time consuming is all too relatable
Awesome!
I had a customer that saw 30 x 60 tiles at floor & decor . He said it should make tiling his master bath really easy 😌 😏
As long as he does it. I hope he knows he needs a flat wall, self leveling spacers, extra thin set ,levels, and patience. You have to make them go in right. Just because they are big tile doesnt mean they will go in easier.
Can I do a whole bathroom with a curb-less shower where I just pour thin set with pigment mixed in over a shower pan like Redi Tile?
What kind of thinset are you using. If it took me an hour to set the first piece, LFT would set up on me.
You're fire man! Wish you could do my kitchen 😭🤣🇻🇪
Winni I enjoy your content and your grind I don't usually subscribe but I want to see you succeed quality work brother👍
Well that means a lot! Thank you so much man
Why did you stop using the vibrating suction thingies you used to use and sell?
Awesome! Does the 24x48 tile work well in shower that’s 36x60? Thanks!!
I would be very grateful if you would tell me what the name is and what kind of mesh (grid) is glued to the waterproofing
what are you using for tile spacers?
Excellent, subscribed.
So if no grout lines what size of space will your levelers be?
I’m looking at a similar tile can you please let me the name of it?
I love seeing your work using this tile.
What type of adhesive do you use for those monster pieces lol. Thanks 👍
Looks great, nice job. Nice job doing it right also. One thing tho, you know all those extra lines on the tape? They also measure 1/16, 1/8”. Instead of plus and minus😂
can this be used for backsplash in kitchen
first time viewer ....good stuff
I'm curious on the back wall. Could you have floated some thinset on your pan to bring that side up?
Yeah absolutely. Kinda missed that. Not a huge problem
Quick question how would I plan if I used this 24x48 in a 57 wide wall should I do the grout line in the middle or sides ? 🤔 love your channel ❤️
Middle
Hi, does anybody think if it the same type of tiles in 12 x 24 is too large for a 33"x 34" floor and 8F high?
Thanks
Also when you mark the tile instead of flipping it upside down with the face still out you should have marked it on the back with it upside down in case the floor was out. Luckily it was 1/4” out level, not 1/4” to say 3/8” out from the floor.
Can this saw cut 2.5-3” marble?
Looks good man
Looks great and I also say level
Great video!
Exceptional video!!!!
No coating on the backer board?
Only in the corners?
Fuking awesome. You need a 6 foot stabila rbeam. Nice.
Why don’t you use a manual dry cutter for straight cuts
want to come to Scottsdale Az to do two bathrooms
Very good work. I'm going to do my shower based on your video. My tiles are 5x3 feet what kind thinset do you recommend.
PS: it's my first time tiling
LFT thinset.
Which Rubi bridge saw are you using?
I need to cut a 12" x 20" rectangle out of a large format tile. Is there a trick to doing that so that it won't crack? I think I once saw someone first drill small holes in the corners... does that sound right?
No trick needed, use a quality 4" cutter blade, clean edges with a diamond hand pad or rubbing stone or #50 dry polishing pad on a grinder.
I was just setting some 2’x4’ in a shower. Did the exact same f*cking thing and had to jump to the other side.
I like 2 suction cups with this size tile, allows me to really slide it up and down and collapse the ridges, and it’s a lot easier to move around. I set two buckets down to allow the tile to be supported and I keep the suction cups away from the buckets.
Solid work though
Yeah I honestly need two good suction cups. I don’t have a good one!
Just starting out and watching you religiously
Thank you so much! Hope I don’t disappoint! I really appreciate you commenting. Means a lot!
@@WINNI.Designs you 3helping me tremendously, cheers.
Just waiting for my first paying job.
Where do you buy your materials here in NH?
Y use a tile machine cutter instead of manual tile cutter??
Are you using mastick ? Or what type?
Why didnt u skip a row from the bottom up and start from the second row?
Why dont you use waterproofing on your walls?
What vanity mirror is that ?
I have that exact saw!!!!! Its a love hate relationship. I love how it cuts but i hate that stupid wire cable guide.
Why is your title picture say no grout?
You should have started with your cut piece on the bottom so you could end up on the ceiling with a full tile looks a lot better that way
What do you mean by no grout?
