We have been working on Wood Look Tile Installation. If you follow us on Instagram (which you totally should😀! www.DIYTyler.co... ) you will have already seen the finished product and some of the in work shots! We are in the process of putting an addition on our house and I have taken over the completion at this point and first up was to install wood grain look tile flooring in the new mudroom, laundry room and bathroom.

➤We wanted the best and longest lasting solution we could and all my research pointed towards using a product called DITRA. It is an uncoupling, waterproof membrane that can be installed directly over OSB, laminate or plywood with no need for concrete backer board.
Started the install process by making sure there were no bumps or lips on the sub flooring using a belt sander with 40 grit sanding belt. Then mixed up 50lbs (at a time) of Schluter All-Set and spread it using a 3/16" v groove trowel and laid the DITRA over it. You can proceed with tiling right over the DITRA immediately if you want, I first laid all the DITRA and them came back over the next few days and laid the tile.
Laid the tile using a 1/3rds pattern making all the cuts on my RIDGID tile saw. You can probably use a scribe and break tool but you won't be able to take sliver cuts if you need to. Laid the tile over All-Set spread using a 1/4x1/4 trowel and leveled them using the RIDGID level max system which was amazing.
OF NOTE: Usually you would have to lay the DITRA using a modified morter and the tile using an unmodified morter but the All-Set is specially formulated by Schluter to work for both applications.
Shout out to Schluter for sending us the DITRA and All-Set for use on this project. We wanted the best for our new addition and they came through for us! Check out their offerings:

Tyler your craftsmanship and ability to make is amazing. I wish I would have had the ability to video my kids when they were little working with me. Your a good Dad and teacher to them. I know Christmas will have a piece missing this year for your family and I want you to know you're still in my prayers young man. God Bless you.

@DIYTyler 5 лет назад

Thanks Marc, much appreciated.

@jacobusjohannescaspers4476 5 лет назад

Love it how you engaged you family, learning by doing. Knowing how much work that goes into a process they are more careful using it.

@tonybp965 5 лет назад

That's amazing Tyler! Very few dads teach work values to their children today. And it's not as if you asked them to, perhaps, maybe you did, or didn't. The fact is they look like they enjoy helping dad. I did the same with mine. Now they're old, They caught up. Lol. But seriously, those are tremendous life forwarding values. Besides they look so great doing it!

@billstoermer8668 5 лет назад

Thank you for taking the time to show how things are done right the first time. With 30 years experience, I cannot tell you the times I have seen failed tile floors due to faulty installation directly over plywood sub-floors. I love Schlutter products and they became my go-to installation method. Schlutter affords you all kinds of flexibility you cannot obtain otherwise. I hope Home Depot is sponsoring you now... As an Ace Hardware retailer, I'd love to see some Ace red on your job-site!

Thanks for the great video. I liked the fact that you provided information on what products and tools you used during the process. I installed tiles before but never used those spacers... I think I will use them for my next project! It is good that you are involving your children in your projects. My dad taught me how to apply wallpaper and lay tiles and I still remember some of his techniques.

@curtisc8233 5 лет назад

Great vid, we used the same ditra in our addition/remodel. Very easy to work with, but depending on where you live, finding un-modified mortar may be difficult. Also, it will take about 2x more than using cement backer board, 3-4x more if using their heated floor product. Well worth it though, easy install and 3 years later no cracks or loose tiles.

@DIYTyler 5 лет назад

That is the result we are hoping for!! Thanks for watching Curtis.

@WeAreNotSheep2023 Год назад

Best video I've seen about tiling and I have seen a lot! Good job.

@fortmyersfruitforest5214 4 года назад

Great video guy, im sure somebody already commented but the trick to not having thinset come up through joints is to use proper size notching on trowel. Overall great job

Those spacer look verry handy. Vrry instructive video. Soon we are also lay tiles so your video will definitely be reviewed to see how we can place our tiles

@JohnHeisz 5 лет назад

Nicely done, Tyler :) I've laid tile directly on OSB, though, without any issues. That membrane stuff is nice, but adds a lot of time and cost to an already expensive project, and really doesn't do anything to stiffen the floor structure.

@DIYTyler 5 лет назад

Must be that frozen OSB up there in Canada!! lol Thanks for watching John!

@irietropicals4255 3 года назад

Nice job! Beautiful tile. The random pattern looks more natural when using wood tiles I think.

@edithmeagher8509 3 года назад

Very nice work! Have you got a hand cutter? That makes cutting easier for me when I’m setting. I don’t have to make many trips to the saw that way. I’ve set many floors with the wood look and I like the size you chose by far! Anything longer and you have the warp factor working against you. I’ve also set this type of tile in a completely random pattern and it really looks like wood then! Plus you can use any random pieces of tile ( with the edges stoned if course ) somewhere in the middle of the floor for added randomness

@reid1boys 4 года назад

Been a long time... maybe 15 years ago, I decided to lay about 1200 sq ft of 12x12 ceramic tile in our house. I was clueless on what I was doing,,.... but hey, I did attend one of those Home depot classes....lol. I did that entire job with the exception of cleaning that haze of the tile at the end by myself... with NO KNEE PADS. WTH was I thinking? My knees hurt, my joints in my hands hurt... We just sold that house and close on it next week and I must say I didnt do too bad. I can see a few spots where my inexperience shows, but overall not bad. The thought of doing that job today without knee pads makes me cringe. Good job.

@Jakbkwik1 3 года назад

Nice job Tyler. You could save a little time by cleaning the grout film from tile surface just a little more initially. Just focus on keeping your sponge on the face of the tile and don't run the sponge along the grout line, crossing a grout line doesn't pick up as much of the grout. Also, just use a quality grout with a sealer included so you don't have to worry about a surface sealer wearing or washing off.

@cardsfanbj 5 лет назад

Sealing the grout is especially important if it's in a place that ever gets wet. We had a contractor lay tile in our bathroom and he didn't do a great job sealing it, and now there's a section of grout that keeps cracking and coming loose.

@nelsonpineda6302 4 года назад

cardsfanbj hello that problem is not for the sealer is because they don’t mixed up right the grout

@kttango9662 3 года назад

Great job...nice video. When rebuilding my old house, the biggest mistake I made was allowing a contractor to title directly over a wooden slat hardwood floor in the kitchen. Needless to say, years later after many cracks, I took it out, installed a new masonry board subfloor and tile. I wonder if this system would have helped?

@jeffk3037 5 лет назад

A 54 sq/ft roll is around $85 Cement backer board is a gamble even done properly the tile and grout can crack from just slight expansion and contraction of the subfloor

@merksecution8395 5 лет назад

Next time you should give the subfloors a drink. You should always key in the membrane prior to notching for the tile.

@ReviewTubeofficial 3 года назад

I want that tiles. Which type of tiles are they?

@soniaf7794 Год назад

I see a lot of projects where installers place the tiles across the room and not vertical (or along side the room). The wood or style is better appreciated in the long way. I think installers only think on what is better for them and not what it looks better for the room, with the light and everything.

@breakoutathletics9816 3 года назад

Did you back butter each tile, as you put them down?

@KelseyPaige1984 3 года назад

I am renovating a small bathroom in my office the contractor said using these types of tiles might not be possible due to the fact that we have a floor drain. So my question is this type of option a possibility if you have a drain in the middle of the bathroom floor?

@jeanniewong7409 3 года назад

Can you use that directly over a wood floor, so you dont have to pull up and demolish glued wood floor?

@raymondsussmann695 4 года назад

He Tyler, are you supposed to tape the seams of the Ditra? I've seen that done in another vid.

@brandonfreitas17 4 года назад

You should have wet the osb with a sponge 🧽 before laying the thinset so the osb wouldn’t suck all the moisture out of the thinset, other then that good job looks good

@antonios4926 5 лет назад
