Thank you very much, I am so lucky to have found you, I will be doing this project soon, but I needed help. Now, thanks to you, I know exactly what to do.
You explained in detail how to work, so professional 👏 👌
Thank you.
Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for the kind words, and hopefully my other videos are just as helpful!
wow green carpet to white hexagon tile... what an upgrade! Looks amazing :)
I'm about to tackle this myself for the first time, and this was very helpful to see. Thank you for sharing your process
I’m glad it was helpful!
I hope your project works out as planned
That is quite the update! Bravo!
Very nice :)
Fantastic! When you mention the 'tile cracker' at 08:02, is that the same as the 'tile nibbler' tool that you see at 06:28?
Ah good question, I should have clarified but the nibblers are the plier shaped tool and the cracker is the longer tool by my feet, it scored the tile in a straight line and then you can crack the tile on that line
I’m about to tackle this but my house is 140 years old and bathroom floor is not level. Subfloor is covered in concrete. Do I need to use the Schluter membrane?
Anything that old is a fun adventure that’s for sure!
So it’s a wooden subfloor with concrete ontop? Potentially self leveller?
I’d make sure first there’s a substantial subfloor under the concrete, and then I would still use the Schluter ditra membrane regardless, for the cost of it it will provide extra insurance and decrease the chances of any vertical movements cracking your tile or popping the grout.
If your build up too high, which is likely, you might consider removing the concrete skim coat, and maybe even the plan subfloor and replacing it with plywood, and probably resupporting and stiffening the joists.
Overkill while you’re in the midst of it!
Good luck!
I just laid similar tile and was told a schluter membrane wasn't ideal for mosaic tile because it's thin and needs a harder base. It was my first time doing mosaic so I didn't know which route to go. What's your take on this? I might try it on the next thin tile job.
Ah yes, I’ve heard mixed reports as well.
In my experience if the subfloor is secure, the thinset has the proper amount of curing time, it’s okay.
But 2”x2” is getting into the territory of too small.
Could always do concrete board later or extra plywood
Hopefully you can find something that works for the job!
