What kind of brackets and shelves? I think going to similar with the covered brackets

Thank you for the tip about the electrical spacers! Those thirty seconds around 7:00 were exceptionally helpful.
By far the BEST backsplash tutorial I've ever seen. And I've been around the trades for 20 years!
As a tile installer in the trades for 20 years. This isn't how I would do it.
I only made it 4.5 minutes in. Once he was destroying symmetry on his layout I kind of checked out. Always center off your focal point with tile leaving larger cuts @ the walls. With subway pattern large and small cuts are irrelevant, you will get both. Moving your pattern to get bigger cuts destroys Symmetry and should only be done slightly if it's going to leave a large grout joint because the tile is too small to cut (less than 1/8" normally)
Also the ledger board before that to hold up tile, you don't need to screw holes in the wall. You place blue tape on the wall where the board will go, place a thin bead of thick CA glue on it, spray CA activator on the ledger board, place board on tape, count to 5, release. If you keep the level in place, you can use it as an edge for perfect alignment. Then set this area in the beginning of the day, after lunch you should be able to remove the ledger and install tile under if needed, taping it up in place as you go.
When returning a wall, mirror your focal corner cuts, or do some math and make it look like the subway pattern wraps the corner.
Thanks for breaking down the little steps and tricks much better than most instructional videos I've seen. I normally hate all white rooms but you added enough contrast to make the white pop and look great.
Thanks for the feedback!
Daniel is such a great host! Always fun and came out great!
Appreciate it, man!
Thanks For Sharing.Good Job From A Great Guy 👍
Good info dude, especially reminding people of those obvious things that we often forget about (when we're tired & eager to finish up) like wiping edges when packing up for the day. Really helpful!
I love the look of the hidden brackets for the floating shelves, awesome idea!
Thank god you are back bro. Where have you been so long bro.
I like your work.👍👍👍😀😀😀
Thanks +Moon 21! In a nutshell...been busy working on non-fun things, but I'm getting back to the fun things 🛠️
I'm grouting my backsplash tonight. I set the tile yesterday. I have to say I referenced this video alot. It has all of the info you need for a beginner. Well done!
Best breakdown of installation of tile I have ever seen. Thanks
I'm so excited! We bought our house last summer and this whole time the backsplash has been an ugly aluminum sheet. The previous owner had interesting tastes (fake grass pitch in the bathroom and on the balcony, anyone?). We just bought 4''x8'' white subway tile, but handbaked (so a bumpy non-smooth glaze) to add a little texture. I'm so excited about installing the backsplash! This was a great informative video, we did not know about needing a baseboard for the bottom row (the countertop doesn't reach the wall so we'll be tiling behind it, as it were. Thanks for creating this valuable content!
wow, fantastic job. that's a very clean update to your existing kitchen. appreciate you taking the time to explain the process and any possibly snags/ complications to look out for.
OMG what a difference, it looks absolutely beautiful, I love the floating shelving the best. I have learnt alot just from watching this video, I would never have attempted anything like that, but now I might think about it and be brave enough to attempt it so thank you I've learnt alot.
Patiently waiting for season two from my favorite wall guy... so really... anytime now!
Hello Daniel😀 thank you for the tutorial on backsplash tiles...
Your showing various subway tiles has come in handy.. Teach Me 👏👏 Learning from you 😀👍
Looks great. About to do shower this weekend. Was just looking for a refresher video as its been over a decade since last tile job and this video was perfect.
Hey....how's the progress?? Did you made a video about it?
I'd loved to see your shower project
Hey there, @Power5! We’re putting together a highlight video of DIY projects our RUclips subscribers have done and we’d love to include your shower tile! Nothing fancy…just looking for either an image or a quick video of the finished project. If you’re interested, send me an email at daniel.e.coleman@lowes.com!
You’re freaking amazing, that is a 5 stars ⭐️ job
A terrific instructional video. I tiled a wall years ago and it's quite easy. Couldn't find subway tiles so I made my own by cutting square tiles in half. Fun project that looked great.
Very well made video...professional quality! Excellent tutorial and tips, too. Nice job!
Nice job! You keep saying "we" and you are doing all the work!
Where have you been ? Great to have you back. 😁
Great video! To nit pick just a tiny bit, at 12:58 you mention it's grout in a tube, but it's not grout in a caulk tube, it's silicone caulk (exactly what you should use and did use). From Mapei's website: Keracaulk U (unsanded) are premium-grade, easy-to use, easy-to-clean siliconized acrylic caulks formulated to match all of MAPEI's colors.
Hit the nail on the head. Thanks!
Does look great. And will 'age' better than some trendy looks like stone, I would think.
Looks clean, bright and elegant atmosphere
Amazing. Love the floating shelves. Great job, man.
Love it!! I've wanted to do this in my bathroom for so long haha, hopefully on summer vacation I'll have time. You're such an inspiration :D
Thanks Maria, and good luck! All you need is one long weekend 💪😄
the free floating shelf idea is so smart. you're a genius!!! this is perfect because I was planning on putting some subway tile into my kitchen. thank you soo much!!
Serendipitous timing, +mim l! I'm really happy with how those shelves came out...maybe that method will catch on!! Here's the brackets I used (spray-painted matte black): low.es/2BYUEMq Let me know how it goes 👍
+Lowe's Home Improvement I will for sure!! thanks so much! I'm happy you're back. :) it might take awhile because the kitchen needs a total rehaul including a new sink and plumbing, new floor and new cabinets plus painting the cabinets that are ok. but I will def let you know how it goes :)
Whew, you're really going for it! The good news is I think we've got how-to videos for all of those projects, too 😅 What kind of flooring are you thinking?
+Lowe's Home Improvement the flooring is the one thing I have! lol it's laminate flooring that looks like grey wood. the lower cabinets are going to be dark grey, the tiles light grey and the upper cabinets and shelves are going to be white. yeah it's a big project, the entire house is gonna take a lot of work. but I love doing things myself then standing back and saying I did that! me!
That sounds like it's gonna be beautiful. Love that DIY spirit & can't wait to hear how it goes!
Very impressive attention to detail.
6 months...6 months i have been avoiding attempting doing this myself. I hope its as easy as he makes it look
WOW! What a job! It's perfect. However, what you did is WAY ABOVE MY PAY GRADE. I'll have to call Bob. He's my tiler. Bravo dude!
I really like your presentation style and DIY videos. Cheers
as a pro I was assuming this was going to be a disaster when it was finished, but other than the gap at the top and the cuts around the floating shelving brackets (very interesting idea) it looked like a good tile job.

Yes. I need to hang three 27” cherry shelves over some white 3x6 tile for a customer. Tile goes on tomorrow; I’ll need to figure something like that out (unfortunately the misguided customer put cement board up in the kitchen instead of drywall; very messy and difficult to cut out!)
The cuts killed me tho.
i would love to change mine to that . my kitchen is small and not much natural lighting so i think this is perfect
Thanks. Was just talking about doing this in the coming weeks.
After a long time. I was waiting for the new episode Daniel. Very informative bro ❤️
Thanks Murtaza! Good to see you in the comments section again, man 👋You working on any fun gardening stuff lately?
Lowe's Home Improvement Recently I upcycled an industrial pallette and attached to the wall for holding some of the planters. It adds soo much texture to the plain walls! Hope you like it man🤘

Love it, dude!! Adds tons of life & texture 👌
Sweet outcome
I would’ve loved to see some cuts. Especially ones around the window trim.
I always force my dad to do those mini splashes! Just for the pure joy to see different grout colors
Looks fantastic!! This was the best instructional tile video I've seen, and I've watched a ton if videos. Great job 👍😁
Thank you! Very helpful!
We need more videos with you!
Such a great video, very informative! Also impeccable work and attention to detail.
Looks great! I wanted to do a similar backsplash in my kitchen but was hesitating, I am convinced now after seeing your video 🤩 you r cool, thanks!
Looks great! My favorite part is when you hid those brackets so they wouldn’t show that much behind the tile.
I am one of the lovers of all your creative ideas, your creative tastes are similar to mine...
Oh my god!!!!!! I've been waiting on you to come back!!!!
More from Daniel! I actually think I want to tile now!
👊👊👉 I would've chosen the white grout too. Thanks for the encouragement!
NICE - all kinds of great hints and tips and short cuts. Good video to have handy when doing your own tile job.
Awesome! Love how it turned out!
Idk why but that cut scene when it went from day one to day two got me WEEEEEAK lol. Awesome video my friend!!
7:55 “Rock on DUDE!!!”
Natural wood color similar to the shelves at the top to hide where the backsplash end would have been epic. Also, some stainless steel appliance to go with your hood. Otherwise from that, great! job
Glad to see Daniel back and building again!! Can’t wait to see more from you, dude!
Very helpful video, love the look too!
Loved this, newbie point of view...😊
Great tips SETTING tile!
Great information and tips. Many thanks.
Awesome tutorial!
I like your mason jar spice rack! Very cool!
Best thing lowes has done was hire this guy. Love his videos. Very informative, down to earth, and for the average joe.
That kitchen will be so easy to clean. I'm doing something like this when I get my house.
OMG Daniel is back with another great video! 😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍
I can't wait to start working on my home improvements.. the kitchen is going to be a big proyect
Great job, thanks!
Que feliz! I am so glad you are back! Adorei your DIYs. Ciao
Dude you have talent and make great videos. Ty
REALLY GREAT TIPS!!!!!
Layout should be centered off the main focal points. If cuts get small in places it's mostly how it is. If you shift the pattern it won't be symmetrical in the focal area (window, stove area, etc)
Can’t believe Lowe’s didn’t hang on to Danny Go!!!
As an industry professional, I have critiques.
I only made it 4 and a half minutes before realizing this is not for me.
It was when he was doing layout & basically telling people to start with what gives them EZ cuts, ignoring any semblance of symmetry.
I do know my standards are high, it's what sets me apart from my competition as a professional.
Edit: The only thing that brought me here was to see what Lowes is recommending. Glad I surpass their standards. Dear Lowes, you don't have to drill holes in walls for ledger boards either (look into the tape and superglue trick)
DANIEL IS BACK ♥️
This was really informative and simple to understand. I am moving into my first home soon and it's nice to know that I can tackle some projects myself.
Also when are other episodes of The Wall coming out? You are so entertaining to watch
Daniel is my new favorite youtuber. MORE DANIEL!
Thank you!!
Good job!
Long time no see! Glad to see some new videos from you!
Very nicely done! Thank you for sharing this video.
Thanks for the informative video! Missed your vids Daniel.
Well done man 👌👌,
miss your art. !!
Amazing! CONGRATS!!!
Good video and good energy from you.
Great video. Thank you. informative.
Great video. Wall behind stove bothers me-I would have to paint it or couldn't sleep!
Wow that looks amazing
Great video , gives me more confidence.
A rotozip with a metal carbide bit will cut out holes much easier with a new bit you can just about draw pictures in ceramic tile.
You’re back! Yippee! 😁🍸
It looks great !!
Great idea for the floating shelves!
What's his name, please? Could you add a translator in other languages for the videos?
I REALLY love this series. Exactly what I'm looking for. I love your energy, and I love how fun the videos are. The editing and production is great as well. Concise, informative and fun. A++
Daniel Coleman
Tyler the tiler! That's so perfect. LOL
yeaaaa, Wall Guy's back again
Yesss
Hype train! Good to see you again Daniel
Great job - love it...
We also just brought 4*16 subway tiles but the problem is that gap between the countertop and cabinets is 18 inhes and somewhere even 17 as countertop is not levelled... Can you please guide me with this....?
Is it okay if the last row of times right under the cabinets is needed to be cut down in half (2 inches) and how to keep the rows of grouts aligned if somewhere the gap is 17 inches, not 18...
Good job
I'm gonna do my kitchen thank you
Fantastic!
This video inspired me to tile the bathroom
Excellent! How did it go, +1javixD??
Awesome job. I'm not a fan of that trim board you put up top by the ceiling and you can see that seam between the two boards off to the right of the kitchen window. Don't many of these subway tiles make a slim edging tile that would have worked?
