    Is this 1/8? Or 3/8 grout spacing?

    Nice job on the herringbone. Don’t forget the hearing protection with that wet saw!

    quick tip, if you wipe the excess mud or glue off with your finger after each row you wont have to clean out the grout joints after.

    So what do you do if it’s not level? Do you line it up with the level line? Or how do you compensate the difference? Thanks!

      If your cabinets are not level, you would mark a "ledger line"; a line above the countertops that is level.
      You would lay your tile starting on this ledger line; it's a starting line which is level, and then work your way up.
      Then you would have to scribe the first row of tiles from your ledger line down to your countertops. So if there's a 1/4" difference (or greater), you're able to cut each tile individually over the difference and still keep a level pattern for the install.

    Is it necessary to seal the grout after?

      No grout already comes with sealer especially if you go with the mapai ultra color plus PF it's a faster setting grout though so you have to work a little faster you can't just spread it and leave it un attended have to spread it and then tool it and wipe it on a 45 with a sponge. I'm a 10 year pro and it's my preferred brand. Lowes sells the product.

    Why all the background music? It’s too loud and hard to hear when the guy is talking. Or have to turn the volume down and back up when he’s talking. Otherwise good video.
