I’ve made plenty of friends and am getting my act together on making money while doing this. Lately for my all jambs I mitre the outside corner and put a bullnose on the end of each piece,
most of the big tile/flooring stores sell clay tile but carry no bullnose trim, how to avoid the red clay "racing strip" effect on an outside edge? Is a miter cut and grout the only solution if I don't want to use Schluter trim pieces?
I have a mid century modern house in Miami with 2 bathrooms, I am remodeling the bath in the master bedroom professionally, but the hallway bathroom which services 3 bedrooms has a tub which has the original tile walls that are in perfect shape from 1963, it is a gorgeous turquoise color 1.5 inch squares surrounded by a glossy rounded bullnose tile that I would like to preserve. However, I would like to take a crack at tiling the adjoining walls that are not tiled with a subway or other tile. My question is, how do I marry the subway tile edges to the rounded bullnose of the tub wall tiles?
I tried to install bull nose tile trim(miter cuts) around my bathroom niches several times but it never seemed to work, the tiles were way off from being flush with the trim. Maybe my measures are at fault. If anyone knows could you please explain how to properly measure a niche and how to best measure and cut bullnose trim for miter cuts
Isaac Ostrom your right must back butter. Yea back in the days always float counter to and install sink rail caps . Hey buy the way. How about do a mock up on Nobel seal membrane product. Love there shower pan liner. Easy to work with. Corners hold there folds.great product. Keep doing those educated videos.👍
For a bathroom wall that has an outside corner leading into the tub/shower area, we want to use a 4' X 4" hexagon gloss tile. Would the 1/4 round Jolly be the best way to do the corner? The 45 degree miter seems to be too sharp a corner for an 8 foot wall corner. Or would one of those old school wrap around corners be better? Are they limited in availability and color?
Only if it is in a wet area. Face to face miter is fine around a fire place or maybe even a back splash away from the sink but in a shower or bathtub area it's a must to grout seams
Hey Isaac, do you have a suggestion for what trim would be best for me??.. Im tiling a Subway tile Kitchen backsplash.. i have no ouside corners so just two edges and along the top of the tiles will need trim.. i really like the metal Schluter finish but heres the catch, im tiling ontop of existing tiles!.. therefor the Schluter trim would go inbetween the two layers of tiles and not flush against the wall... i hope that makes sense and if u could point me in the right direction id really appreciate it.
Hi Isaac, I really like your videos; thankyou. I have a question for you. I watched your water test video with the Schluter product....awesome. So, would you recommend using Redguard on the Kerdiboard on the shower walls? And what about Redguard on the Ditra on the shower floor? Thanks again.
Nice overview video. Isaac. Question: Can a good fabricator do a tight and strong epoxy adhesive mitre joint...perhaps with a continuous ceramic or stone block on the backside of the corner? Obviously a shop executed detail, it is similar to details sometimes executed in stone. BTW...As a tile wonk, be sure to treat yourself to a trip to Barcelona. Mind blowing for any aspirational tile craftsman.
Thank you for your great information! Do you suppose a miter joint construction would be ok for a large tile over brick fireplace redo? I’ll probably hire someone to do it, don’t want it to look like a learner’s project. Thanks for any info you can offer.
For an outer edge, after mitering each tile to 45 degrees, what is used to fill the crack? (Is there some sort of specific epoxy, which I can use a buffing wheel to bring down the edge to something slightly more rounded and less pointy?)
You are good at tile construction. It was time to learn a lot. You come to Korea tile construction method. There are also materials for construction of tiles using vibrator machines.
Hey Isaac, I appreciate the videos. I have a project that involves two INSIDE corners in a simple shower cove. I'm using a 3x10 beveled subway tile on the walls. While I've found a few videos on how to finish outside corners, I'm trying to figure out how you deal with INSIDE corners with a beveled subway tile. As I see it, at the corners there are three possible adjoining tile scenarios. First, I might have a cut to cut adjoining tile situation. Second, I might have a cut to bevel adjoining tile situation. And third, I might have two beveled adjoining edged tiles. What do you recommend in terms of finishing these tiles on INSIDE corners? The bevel to bevel edges seem the most straightforward. The cut to cut, I would guess you could do a reverse miter cut (reverse compared to an OUTSIDE corner) and leave a small caulk line to match the other grout groves. If you have a cut edge adjoining a bevel edge, I would assume you would bury the cut edge and have the beveled edge abut to the top surface of the cut edge tile. Of course in each of these cases there would be space and I would be using caulk for expansion purposes. Any thoughts on my situation? If you know of a video on how to finish inside corners with beveled tiles I'd be appreciative? In advance, keep up the great work.
HEY! Where are you looking, I'm over here to your LEFT!! You're not looking at yourself on your laptop again are you? Like amateur homemade adult videos.
But seriously that was informative. Information dense, not drawn out like so many others on here. You keep it up son.
Finally, you explained what I was thinking but didn't know how to explain it to a contractor.
Thanks for the info on trimming edges
I'm loving all the great videos. Thank you tile coach for putting your expertise and information out there
Great video. Next level of detail
Thank you! Just the info I needed.

Hi, i am wondering, is there a PVC quadrant used to connect or join a floor mosaic tile to the same mosaic tile on the wall?
How do you measure for the mitre? Do you have to add some to account for the mortar?
most of the big tile/flooring stores sell clay tile but carry no bullnose trim, how to avoid the red clay "racing strip" effect on an outside edge? Is a miter cut and grout the only solution if I don't want to use Schluter trim pieces?
When you miter tile strip do you ever file the edge to take the sharpness off?
Great content!
2:38 "not a lot of material there" but you should use something like Schluter Finec trim profile to reinforce the junction.
If you epoxy instead of grout. It won't chip or crack and it'll look like one piece
Look at me when I'm listening to you!

What do you do for a 135 degree outside corner?
There are also mud cap. And sink rail. For counter tops. Do you remember inside butterfly trim. Goes back.

Would you say using chair rail as a finish edge on a porcelain 12" tile kitchen counter top is outdated?
Do you have to grout the mitre seam?
Only if it is in a wet area. Face to face miter is fine around a fire place or maybe even a back splash away from the sink but in a shower or bathtub area it's a must to grout seams
Wow! No fitted baseball cap?
Good video. Another option is to use metal/plastic tile trims

@@TileCoach thanks man.
I see so many tile showers crack along the inside corner.....expanding wood and non expanding tile/grout?

thank you ,Chet
How can you cut in the middle of the tile at a 45 degree angle?
Nice job!

How do you grout mitre eadge ?
I'm 9 years late lol. I was wondering how it's done 😃
Great video brother
what about outside corners, what is best for ceramic ? besides miter
Schluter, if you don't want to miter
Informative video but oh man what is up with his collar👀?
i found corner tiles no need for cut
For an outer edge, after mitering each tile to 45 degrees, what is used to fill the crack?
(Is there some sort of specific epoxy, which I can use a buffing wheel to bring down the edge to something slightly more rounded and less pointy?)
Thats a bevel joint to let you know but make it look much better
in carpentry and trades we call them mitres.

HEY! Where are you looking, I'm over here to your LEFT!! You're not looking at yourself on your laptop again are you? Like amateur homemade adult videos.
Bevel!!!
Bar of soap will not chip a mitered edge
How do u avoid chipping??? Yeah, a miter edge looks great. But not if it has chips on the edge. So no, ur video dose not help.
Mucho Bla,bla,bla.
