A few tips: 1: Once you make the initial cut with the tile cutting machine - just tap it firmly a few times to break it. Doing what you're doing is just painful to watch 2: What you're doing with the ceilings is time consuming and unnecessary. Knock whatever is loose with a spatula, apply a firm coat of primer and a coat of plaster. Done 3: OSB + Tiles and glue will fail in a few years as it will rot. If you want to go this route the minimum is using waterproofing for the OSB before the tile glue. Hope that helps :)
I was going to say the same thing. Get a sharp cutter on the tile saw. One score from end to end and then tap near the bottom end. Do not try to cut off too small a piece or it will break over a wider area.
It is a "rubber-ized" paint on product that you apply to walls and floor of a wet area to prevent water penetration. There are a few differnt brands and different methods. It will completly waterproof the walls and floor to prevent water damage to any porus material behind the tiles in a shower. I think he is using regular wallboard or it may have even been greenboard. It does not matter. The tile is waterproof, but the grout is NOT. Even with a sealent on the grout, whcih must be applied every 6 months to be effective, water will pass through the grout and over a period of time (as little as 6 months depending on use) will damage the wafferboard subfloor. I would hate to see all the effort that is being put into for naught in a short time. Just my two cents worth.
oh sam my lovely the pure frustration you must be feeling with the tiles is heartbreaking to see. there are electric water fed tile cutter you can get, sadly a tad on the expensive side but i wonder if you have lots of tiling to do it would work out cheaper to get not only with the breakages but also your mental health with the frustration. time in the garden is a good stress de-buster. i truly hope you were less frustrated when you went back inside. keep your spirits up you are doing a beautiful job xx
I noticed you pulling out weeds, etc. Suggest that you purchase a small garden fork and trowel set. Then you can fork up the weeds with their roots, rather than just pulling the tops off. Use the trowel to make furrows on the soil is much more efficient than a stick. Agree with your earlier correspondent that OSB is the wrong floor choice as water/condensation will quickly cause it to fall apart. At best marine grade plywood is the way to go, as well as a waterproofing membrane, which should have been applied to up walls as well. However at worst you need several applications of a membrane over the OSB, particularly pushed in under the bottom of the wall tiles. Cheers, Phil
Wondering where the waterproofing is within the shower cubicle? Normally you need to paint a membrane on the shower area to seal it prior to placing tiles. 🤔
That's exactly how trying to use a tile cutter went for me, sometimes perfect and then not. I think that the larger tiles are more difficult especially porcelain, for those I kept ending up using the grinder.
Sorry wenn ich das jetzt so sage, aber du wirst nicht lange Spaß an deiner Dusche haben. Erstens wäre es besser gewesen grüne (wasserbeständige) Rigipsplatten zu verwenden. Zweitens, es gibt spezielle Abdichtgrundierung für Duschen, die auch in den Ecken geklebt werden und drittens die Fliesen so auf die Spannplatten zu kleben (die Fugen werden nie ganz wasserdicht sein, sodass Feuchtigkeit durchkommt und in die Spannplatten zieht) sie werden auf Dauer dadurch brüchig. Nur ein kleiner Tip meinerseits. Ansonsten gute Arbeit.
Bless your heart, that looks like that's a pain in the hind quarter section lol but it's going to be beautiful when you get it finished! I would be cursing all over the place lol good video, but it looks like miserable weather? Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸💖 PS beautiful morning.
Curious to understand why you did follow 'normal' practice and lay the floor tiles in the shower before doing the wall tiling. Laying the floor tiles first means that all cut tile edges are not seen as they are covered by the wall tiles. The seal between the wall and floor tiles is then horizontal, not vertical as you have done. A horizontal seal is a lot less likely to fail. Glazed tiles are, as the name implies, covered with a layer of glass. Cutting glass requires one cut only. Multi cuts result in ragged cuts as you have discovered.
Looks like the drain is placed where you step into the shower instead of placing it where most of the water will be hitting from the shower head. 😮 I also don’t know why he’s using such large tile for the shower floor. Especially when he doesn’t have the right tools or experience to cut it. He has a large room to work with and makes a tiny shower out of extra large tiles makes no sense. If the shower was large then large tiles would work and have less cuts, but he’s making a small shower with big tiles and piecing them together, with no real cohesive grout lines lining up.
Are you scraping because the finish on the ceiling is not compatible to our paints, I saw that on the Pethericks channel, some old way they made paint that you can't paint over. Or is it so severely flaking? A lot of work for you. Beautiful Villa!
This has been difficult to watch, some research on waterproofing bathrooms would have solved all your problems. Your design is too complicated and you’re getting far too much wastage and wasting money. It’s also too time consuming. At the moment you do not appear to achieve much in a week, judging from the content of each video. I’m sure that you are doing far more than what you are presenting? Your getting lots of very good advise from your viewers which you don’t comment on which tells me that your not reading them. Hence the frustrated comments from so many of your viewers. See comments on the amount of produce that you planted, often in the wrong season, yes I’m aware that you will have different growing seasons to us in Wales. But the principles still apply. I’m unfortunately getting to the point that I do not wish to watch any longer, which would be sad as I’ve subscribed from the beginning. None of us wish to see you fail Sam. Rob, Wales 🏴

Yes, thank you! And him filming every.single.cut is making me crazy.

I watch a lot of renovation programs and always you have to put a waterproof membrane under the tiles in a shower
Why didn't you waterproof the shower? I am curious as to why this wasn't done
I'm so confused. Where is the water proofing?

Mooi stuk vooruit gekomen 😊

Tegels kan je ook zagen met kleine handcirkelzaag met goedetegelschijf en geleiderail. Gaat prima .
Bonjour, pourquoi n'avons nous plus de traduction depuis plusieurs semaines ?😢
Winter has started here in Missouri. 17 degrees this morning.
I bet you can't wait to have a nice shower in your new bath!
Looking good
Progress 👏👏
Bring those Lemons in soon...❤

I’m afraid this will be a disaster once the water infiltrates the walls and floor, as many others have noted.
Curious to understand why you did follow 'normal' practice and lay the floor tiles in the shower before doing the wall tiling.
Laying the floor tiles first means that all cut tile edges are not seen as they are covered by the wall tiles.

What was that little animal. ?? A Gerbyl. ??Ihave forgotten
please, somebody must tell him to make a proper garden where you can see the various plants sorted
Try soaking the seeds in water overnight
Where is the drainage?
Looks like the drain is placed where you step into the shower instead of placing it where most of the water will be hitting from the shower head. 😮 I also don’t know why he’s using such large tile for the shower floor. Especially when he doesn’t have the right tools or experience to cut it. He has a large room to work with and makes a tiny shower out of extra large tiles makes no sense.

You should not put tile on OSB board They will not adhere properly.
I’m trying to figure out the drain placement 🥴
And the water proofing. Water goes through grout and that OSB will start to rot. I'm puzzled?????
Maybe the tile cutter needs a new wheel?
😱😱😱...
✨🌞✨
Schade, keine Übersetzung. 😮
repetitively boring once again!

@@MelanieRivest You can paint over anything. Just make sure you use a deep penetrating primer first
