Unreal I've been installing for 30 years but I tell you these guys that do a dry pack pour instead of over concrete are truly masters I will bet money that his tiles are smoother and more level then a piece of Glass absolutely phenomenal. Kudos and hats of to your exceptional talent.
Yes... you keep commenting about subfloor but you are the one who doesn’t know what they are talking about... this is dry pack mud not dirt or sand. People in the US use this technique too. It’s called fresh setting tile look it up. He knows 10x more about tile than you ever will.
No master of craft gets compensated accordingly, he is too busy elevating his craft. These days to get compensated well (obviously there are 1 or 2 exceptions) is to make that your central focus everything else is secondary. Thanks to all the MBAs out there, business school is quite literally there to teach you how to use and manipulate people like this master craftsman; get him to work for as little as possible while you charge as much as possible for his work, and pocket the difference. Also known as hustling, or being a hustler, this is the essential idea behind hustling. A perfect world to someone with a MBA is to do and risk as little as possible for as much money as possible. "Let stupid morons like this guy shoulder the risk and the work, I will take all the money and throw him a bone every now and again when he gets fussy" - top of the class Business School grad
@@jacksonpuckett6115 holy shit, your gonna go out of business with thin ass margins like that! I assume you charge $120 per hour for his labor, psh! It's almost like you want to be shitty at running a buisness
I'm 18 and want to get into this trade but I suck at using a measuring tape ... There's this ad on Craigslist for tile helper I want to risk it and apply for it doe
I’m no tiler, but tiling onto a poor subfloor like that can’t possibly be durable. Code here is 11mm thick sub flooring of some kind of wood/particle material
thomas fletcher yea and what you described isn’t even what they did here in this video yet you sit here and praise this job and act like you know what your talking about. We kick guys like you off the job son...
@thomas fletcher but it looks like sand then perhaps mortar then tile. I can't see anything of a moisture barrier but that could be cause it's hidden underneath; however the reinforcement material should be visible where both sand & mortar are seen. Different rules I guess
Jennifer Johnson your right Jennifer don’t listen to Thomas he spews misinformation. Their is no slab in the video or moisture barrier. It’s not different rules so much as a lack of any standards... this tile job would not last on its sub floor which is a real shame/waste.
I think it's a dry mix of sand and cement ' it will harden stronger than wet mix takes about 4days to go off.. just the moisture of the sand is enough to do it.
Да у нас такая технология не используется для внутренней отделки... Хотя тротуарнаю брусчатку так ложат. ХЗ китайцы щя впереди планеты всей и возможно эта технология норм и для внутренних работ но есть свои хитрости и секреты... Хотя брусчатка еще трамбуется вибростанком т.к. без этого произойдет неравномерная усадка и не будет плоскости... Может они и плитку вибрируют...
ellito bender he seams to be doing fine without it although I’d have to say I love mine. What he really needs is a transit laser, concrete mixer and a book then his work could last long enough to be thoroughly appreciated
Hey! Man, you need to train some guys this talent, skill....oh! My goodness, I've been following your skill, then, I said let me just tell you that how much I appreciate you in this special skill, God bless you my friend, love it!!!
That's wonderful machine. I envy you. Also i want to take your machines. Haha. Just joke. Good machine. My country of tile's machine developments speed is not good. And most of old tilers are fraid of development. Because when they learnded and studied from the tile skill of the older than tile's master, they were hit from the master. So they are fraid of change, challenge, and own position shaking. You are a good tile master. I also tile engineer. I have worked for 8 years. I appreciate to you. I am archtecture in Republic of Korea the first grade that pubilish my country. By the way i was wood maker for 2 years. Last i learned from tile master skill of the best of best in Pohang city ( now i live in city). Finally glad to see your youtuve channel. Good study to me. I own my youtube channel that homemaker. Thanks. God Bless you.
홈메이커역전이 read a book on concrete or how to prep a subfloor for tile and you’ll see he did a terrible job preparing for his tiles and they will ALL fail.
Pretty sure these are self taught techniques which is why he is doing them in such a precision and uniqueness. Guy loves his job and he was surely born to do this just like Messi was born to play football
Built to be sold. Not to last. Theres no way that floor doesn't shift that grout isn't destroyed within a few years. What happens when moisture gets under there?
@@wasaglass I think its just to build a showroom kind of deal. If your substrate’s made of perfectly smooth flat sand, you don’t worry about thinset coverage, you stick your pieces with glue without regard to longevity, anyone can be a skilled worker. Shit, I’m very skill when placing tiles on top of the floor to test the fit.
Fresh setting is one of the best methods, old school. The mortar locks into the dry pack and becomes one, 100% coverage, solid and flat, last for a very long time as long as you do it correctly
Whenyouknowbetter it wont.. anyone who tells you different doesn’t understand what they’re seeing in the video. Morgan is correct but it doesn’t apply to this scenario as you’d have to perform this over a proper sub floor which this is not...
Mathias Karlsson if their is moisture under the mortar it will come up to the tile. Depending on the sealers used and how they are used it may have a hard to coming to the surface at first but after the tiles fail, which they will then the floor will be getting wet.
Jonathan Chung yes he did decent cuts and layout as far as you can see but I didn’t see a wet saw did you? Kind of hard to get good straight cuts with clean edges without one but who knows maybe he’s the exception. Problem isn’t his mixture it’s what he put it on.
