WHY We Had to SMASH Our NEW TILE...(Don't Make This Mistake)

Hey Gang! We're continuing on our shower build today, and you guessed it....we're ripping out that tile. We gave you as many tips and tricks as we could along the way, but forgot to mention that when you work late, you make mistakes! No big deal, and nothing a hammer and some thinset couldn't solve. Cutting that stone gave us a little trouble, but once we had the right grinder, it was perfection, and that curb appeal is going to be sweet, we can't wait to tile the rest and get Jason back in there to install the glass and finish this thing off.

When doing projects I've learned early on (through much angst and frustration), "if you don't have time to do it right the first time, how will you find the time to do it over?" Glad you went home and got that replacement grinder. I also learned that if you get tired on a job, especially if it involves chainsaws or power tools, you should stop. You'll make mistakes or worse, injury. Glad the tile was an easy fix. I really enjoy your show, and your professionalism and attention to detail is refreshing to see in a builder. Thanks.

Hi guys! As your friendly marble mason I'd like to offer a pro tip for cutting stone with a skill-saw. You actually want to cut backwards compared to cutting wood. when cutting wood, you push the saw forward, when cutting stone you pull it backward when using the skill-saw. Also, preferably you want to hold a wet sponge to the blade to keep it cool which will prevent the blade from warping and minimizing chips. An adjustable speed angle grinder (5/8" arbor) is a much more versatile stone working tool as you can use it for cutting, grinding, polishing and drilling holes. Cheers for another great video.

I actually made the same mistake when I did our remodel about 15 years ago and missed a grout line. Man, I was not happy. Then to make it even better, my better half noticed it, and then it was harped on for a full two days. Harped is my way of saying she nicely pointed out my mistake, over, and over, and over again. I actually just used my angle grinder and diamond blade to cut a grout line in the right spot and it worked out fine. I did have to use a diamond round file to smooth the cut edges a bit but it worked out fine. Another great video.

Stud Pack is by far my favorite RU-vid channel. At about 9:30 on the video after the blade was put on the saw, you tested and the blade spun. That was the tipoff that the blade was not thick enough and not properly attached. Also having the blade on the left side of the saw is a great option; something that I never knew. It's a great consideration when purchasing. Also thanks for pointing out that screw is left handed and the blade label inside.

You think stick homes have mistakes that’s not fixed, you should look close at a manufactured home some time. Especially if and when you go to do any remodeling in a manufactured home as I have. Unbelievable the things you find. Pulled up the carpet to put down a laminate flooring. The lazy jerks took strapping tape from the boxes they opened and stapled it to the underlayment with huge 2 1/2” staples and not just a couple staples either. Try least 10-15 staples if not more. You can tell exactly where they opened a new box too, right where you find another long piece of strapping material staples to the floor throughout the whole house and then covered up with carpet padding and carpet so you never know it’s there till you remove your carpet somewhere down the line! Then exterior doors were never put in correctly and it’s not from settling either. How do I know? Cause the doors are so crooked with the doors jams that with the doors shut you could see daylight shining thru the cracks between the dot and the jam. How did it fix this you ask? They took strips of carpet and staples it to the door jam so the light wouldn’t shine thru! 1/4 gap at the top of the door and 3/8-1/2” gap at the bottom of the door. Oh, and you don’t want me to even get started telling you about the wiring throughput the house! But I’ll give you a idea. The original home owner was changing his garage florescent lights and happened to touch a metal truss in the garage at the same time he touched the light while standing on the ladder and got full voltage ran directly thru his body knocking him 50 ft across the garage on to the concrete floor and shattered his shoulder disabling him for life. There’s not one light switch or plug in I haven’t had to redo in the whole house! Gets scary when you find a bare copper wire that’s hot! Just lucky for the lady that owns the house now after her husband passed away that she met me cause it would of cost her a fortune to have numerous contractors or sub contractors to come in and make the repairs that I’ve done for her and not charge her anything except the cost of parts. After seeing this place, I never recommend buying a manufactured home to even my worse enemy!

Great video as usual, I have been doing the same type of work for 20 + years. Your work ethic and quality is definitely the best I have seen on RU-vid. Next time you have to dry cut tile try holding a damp sponge on blade while cutting, it will keep the dust down and the blade cooler, which in return equals better cut. I got that tip from a lifelong tile setter.

It was cool hearing a little from Jason about his process. As a junior designer, I pulled some helpful info.. first using stock size doors to save on time/cost with a filler panel to fill the gap, and second I didn't think about having hardware powder-coated to be an exact match, that is a great idea and the possibilities are endless if a client has the money!

The uneven tile and "pony wall" made installing the glass on the pony wall and the small glass full height return a real challenge which then made hanging the 36" x 74" glass door a challenge as well. All went well, but having tile setters that were as detailed as you would have made my life a lot easier. Thanks again for all of the info. I am enjoying all of your videos.

Always have the best ideas after the job is done. Because of the bevel on the stone threshold the plywood template should have been placed with the same bevel wedges. I know it’s not much of an angle change from 45 but if going to the trouble of a template it just gets the joint perfect. I have been disappointed with myself for not taking that extra on similar conditions, and when I remembered the next time the fit was superb. It’s the details, and everyone wants to do there best, and be proud of it. Thanks for all the great ideas and comments on new materials, thumbs up!

Love the accent tile idea in the niche and continuing it in the curb. We did something similar in our master bath is our last house, I had a single piece shower/tub surround and needed to put in an accent strip when tiling to fill in the space between the surround and ceiling and matching the 6x6 pattern on the surround. “I’m going to add an accent strip so my layout will fill the space!” I had some leftover large wall tiles from our basement project and actually tiled behind the toilet too (easy cleaning with messy boys!) and matched the accent strip from the shower which pulled the whole room together. My husband thought I was absolutely nuts until after he saw the final results and the first day it was his turn to clean the bathroom! Little details really elevate the space.

I keep a couple of worn-down disc centres in my blades box to shim the arbor for thin specialty blades. In your case that day, a 4" disc could have shimmed your 6" diamond wheel and left a 25mm cut depth. Freehanding with a grinder for a critical mitre joint is above my confidence level...I couldn't expect the cut face to be plumb. The circular saw was a better idea. One of my favourite channels...real-life compensating for the random gremlins that pop up everyday. I like the pace of your delivery and editing. Thanks fellas... I enjoy working along side you in my head and getting it done, even if my own day hadn't gone smoothly. 🤔 One design problem with having a lip from the stone cap on the inside would be slime building up unseen under the overhang.

Hey brother, fantastic work! Glad to see others out there taking pride in their craft and doing top notch tile work. I appreciate you guys starting off the video with showing mistakes. A lot of people won't ever admit when they mess up. Super cool of you. I've made this same mistake before and had to rip the tile out. However, their is sometimes an option to cut a false grout line and save the tile and polish/sand the edges. I also like using false ground lines with smaller pieces or inside of niches. Just use the wet saw to score half way into the face of the tile making sure not to cut all the way through. Keeps small pieces from moving around and adds extra stability and more level outcome. I'm sure you are already aware of this method, but some others might not be. Have a blessed day guys and keep up the great work. 👍🏻

Congratulations on the beautiful video montages and the excellent and detailed explanation! We have cut thick granite kitchen tops to size several times, even though people said you couldn't do it at home! But if you asked for a price to cut it, you fell back and had no guarantee in the event of a break! So a large grinding wheel with a diamond wheel for wet cutting, and very important a watering can to cool it during cutting. Less dust and no chance of the granite getting too hot and cracking! Also provide good support with an osb plate under the entire granite during cutting so that it does not break off at the end! Now I am not afraid to start this job anymore.

The whole time you were using the circular saw the only thing I was thinking is "Why do a full depth cut?" It's so easy to make 2 or 3 passes and put less stress and heat into the stone. With a straight edge clamped in place you can easily make those passes and have a nice clean cut. With the little grinder you made little passes even on the first cut and that is what those blades and tools truly prefer. A worm gear saw I would do a full depth cut but only if I don't care if there is some breakout around the cut, with a straight shaft circular 1/4 to 3/8 is the range of depth I shoot for. Seriously expected you to try the tile saw though and would have cringed even more with the stone hanging out there unsupported. Anyway have enjoyed the shower build video's a ton. Currently replacing the roof, doing electrical and datacomm runs throughout the house with insulation to be a project for this summer since the 110 year old house has no insulation at all. For that matter it still has knob and tube for the lighting. But before long I want to do a large cast in place concrete tub in my downstairs bathroom and thinking about a curbless shower in the upstairs master bathroom that doesn't even exist yet. So when smashing the tile did you guys have the idea to just make a cut in the tile where the joint should have been? Not sure it would have looked as good but with your grinder a steady hand and a few touchups with the vibrating saw it would have likely looked decent. Especially since you ran out of tile previously so probably had to go get more.

I cut my stone curb caps on my wet saw. I just mark it, hold it on a 45, and it cuts clean every time. I even cut mitres on my wet saw for vertical pieces at the ends of knee walls. Also, I remove my leveling spacers the very next day so if I have to clean Thinset out of the joints, it’s still slightly soft and easy to remove. Thanks for the tip on using a margin trowel to rake back Thinset away from your joints. That’s helpful

Engineering and design is everything. Thinking everything out is key. The forethought of ever so slight pitch so that the sweep is not having to endure excessive pressure, is one the things that will tell in time whether or not the design installation was done correctly.

I use a wet track saw by Accuglide for granite and quartz, but if i was on your jobsite I would have been comfortable trying the tile saw. Engineered quartz is incredibly strong. That piece you have, you can pick it up from the middle flat and it will not break. Oh and you can polish with sandpaper 60-600 grit.

I just bought a piece of marble called a shower saddle, it is 6" wide and 6 feet long. I found it in stock at a local tile business for $83.00. It is enough for my shower curb and the niche.

Pro tip, you can cut a fake grout line on a tile so its a single piece. Would have been a perfect use for a piece like that up there.

Even if he wanted to do simple fix like this, rather then properly fix it, the ceiling would be in the way of finishing the cut.

I quickly learned while building cabins: Never do "one last thing" after dinner. It never goes well. I also learned, regarding handedness, to practice using the "off" hand as frequently as practical. In the long run you won't even notice which you're using. But after 30 years, I still can't write legibly with my left hand (I'm 70ish).
