I am so glad you mentioned how tedious the work is. I am a flooring and home improvement contractor in metro Atlanta, and it can be very time consuming to do quality work. Beautiful work btw.
Excellent work per usual. It's always enjoyable to watch other pros work. There's always a new trick or technique out there and never be too proud to learn one. I don't know how many DIYers watch but it may be helpful to show them why using a ledger board makes things easier. Loved the drywall to go over the window. I do the exact same thing.
I actually like the pace of this being aimed more for experienced tilers. There's others out there with the basic stuff. Time lapse is cool. Wish I could do a whole room in 8 minutes..
Have you tried one of the drain flanges for the freestanding tub that you just drop the tail piece from tub drain in . They are expensive but super easy
@@LandbergTileTVyeah about 100 bucks , I only use them for 2nd floor tubs where you don’t have access underneath. They are worth it for that scenario . If I have crawl space access I’ll save the money and use a trap adapter
The most tile I ever did on a shower it was a steam shower I had to do it in a herringbone pattern and it was single pieces total tile pieces was just under 2600 pieces not a job I ever want to do again 😅 Nice work my friend
You do amazing work! I just finished my first bathroom and went with larger porcelain tiles heavily influenced by your subway tile opinions. I don't think I will use anything but porcelain but also I am just DIY and only have three more bathrooms.
I am a carpenter/ cabinet maker. I considered being a tile guy as very few in my area, VERY HARD work ! I do tile mostly for myself , MUCH respect for the tile technicians !
Cool shower, That's interesting. What you did with the window. I'm doing a window right now. And the solid suface 2 cm is gonna come out flush almost with Window Flange, And I'm using a bonded or sealed system with a membrane this time. So I scuffed up half of the window edge,( It will be covered) and because you're gonna see a tiny bit of it at the edge and you don't want to mess that up. and then put my sheet membrane halfway up the window so the solid surface will eventually cover it, and Put a coat of liquid water proofing at the seam of the sheet membrane and the window flange, So when the water goes down behind there it will go over the liquid waterproofing first and onto the sheet membrane. And then down-and-out. Do you think it makes a difference? It looks like you did the opposite where you put liquid waterproofing first and then the sheet membrane over it. Both should be fine, right?
I don't think it will make a difference. Keep in mind the marble that was installed for over 30 years on that window sill had zero waterproofing underneath and the framing was in good shape.
@LandbergTileTV Yeah, I agree, but they probably got lucky with that. Windows that are in showers definitely need to be waterproof. Overkill. If it is low window it will be getting hit with water for years and years. And once the water gets down behind there, it will rot out everything so it is very important. The waterproofing is the most important part of a shower without waterproofing that nice tile job that somebody may put up that may "look good", Like Many others do, But is totally shot because the waterproofing is wrong or was done incorrectly. So waterproofing first, looks second. both should be nearly perfect.
@@LandbergTileTV I'm having a problem with making some precision cuts. I'm ripping 12x24 porcelan tile length wise. I've dressed the blade a P4 Pearl, checked the DW24000 for trueness of the tray and all looks good.. Tray is solid as is the rest of the tool. For some odd reason, the tile will start out with the correct cut at one end of the tile but cuts off less material at the other. I keep the material flat against the fence as well and go slowly.. Seems for these thin cuts, if I move the material to the other side of the blade, the cut is more precise. Could it be how the water hits the blade? What to check for?
