SUBSCRIBE Learn how tile the right way
Often when installing a feature strip or tiles of different sizes on the same surface, it is difficult to flush out the tile if you don't do some prep ahead of time tp make it easy to get the results you are looking for without making a mess or having ugly uneven surfaces or tiles that are not even to each other. In this video I show you how to match tiles of different thicknesses to be at the same height. All tile installed by Sal DiBlasi, Elite-tile Company, in the Boston North Shore area.

I asked a question a few days ago about the material used for the mosaic backing. After spending a number of days searching and researching, I selected the Schluter-Kerdi waterproofing membrane. It is thin, durable, and both sides of the membrane accept adhesive. Since one other person also had the same question a year ago, I added this product reference to save others some time.

@marcellemay7721 2 года назад

I never thought about putting the membrane on the tile prior to setting it on the wall. I probably would have set the membrane on the wall first and waited for that to set, then apply the mosaics the next day. I can see how your method works better because you can adjust the depth better without all the oozing through the grout line. Those thin mosaics are always a pain to get even because you really can't build it up with thin set as the excess will ooze out and make a mess. I learned that the hard way.

Or you just use a screed board made out of tile and set to the depth you need. Pack with thinset and screed the thinset out. Comes out perfect

very cool! My tile shop recommended against using different thicknesses, saying that some people might "float" the difference but they wouldn't recommend it. Great problem solving.

What is the membrane you used?

@chriserhard8724 2 года назад

Very nice tip! I wish I was aware of this 9 months ago when I was doing my bathrooms. Oh well my accent tiles are just a bit lower. Nobody but me has to know. Lol

Best tiler in the world I think. So meticulous!

Good trick Sal ~ now I can install the wife's preferred accent tile.

@user-br8ss1lm8k 7 месяцев назад

What type of material did you use for the mosaic tile backing? Do you have a product name that you can suggest?

@VladGPhotography 2 года назад

Always great tips! How would you solve this issue on the shower floor? I'm using a few unique tiles around the drain that are 1/8 thicker than the rest of the floor. Thanks!

@jamesjett1561 2 года назад

What size trowel did you end up using that gave the good coverage?

@kallenyc Год назад

I'm curious how you would handle different thicknesses of larger format tiles (6x24) for a herringbone design. I'm doing different colors of mostly ceramic tile but one is porcelain and not the same thickness as the others.
