    Your older videos you used a bit more water but this is satisfying to watch, I’ll think I’ll have a cigar. Nice work.

    Getting that mortar nearly level all the way around by eyeball is skillful all by itself 👌👍

    Excellent. I’m searching for my shower leak now and leaning toward ripping it out and replacing it. It’s 15 years old. Travertine with sanded grout.

    Are the peramaters always level? When does the slope from the wall to the drain start? Is the drain level with the tile thats layed or should the tile be a little higher? Like 1/8

    • @StarrTile
      @StarrTile  2 дня назад +1

      @marcelw1203 explain in the video that the perimeter does not have to be level, that's what a perimeter screed is if you want all 4 sides level... but I don't do that, though yes, mortar should be level as possible.
      And yes my floor tile will be slightly above the edge of the drain, you will see that process when I begin the tiling, new video pops up every Friday.

      It is called Sakrete sand mix at Lowe's

    Why drypack? Is it not ok to pour it wet?

    • @StarrTile
      @StarrTile  2 дня назад +1

      It has to do with other guys talking about a dry pack, it is wet to a certain extent but you don't want it too wet

    • @MrC9Oh3
      @MrC9Oh3 2 дня назад

      @StarrTile that's my question, what are the disadvantages of it being too wet?

    • @StarrTile
      @StarrTile  2 дня назад

      @MrC9Oh3 too wet is a bit subjective, if it is overly wet then it will not stay in place, it will travel down to the drain like lava... also it would degrade some of the adhesion properties of the cement

    Where's your pre-slope? Or Why aren't you using a waterproof membrane over your dry pack? Or a liquid applied over the dry pack. Seems like that is what all the other top tile guys are doing. I do appreciate your attention to detail. I am not a tile guy but have watched hundreds of videos over the years.

    • @StarrTile
      @StarrTile  2 дня назад +2

      With the water in water out system then a pre-slope would kick in with most people, we are not doing that anymore, we are doing a sealed system so therefore a pre-slope is irrelevant. The liquid membrane goes on the mortar pan in the next video next Friday

      ​@lrc87290 ask him how the water gets up over the 3/8 to a 1/2 inch lip up in the drain when he puts liquid water proofing over his post slope.(the one you tile), up to the drain. The residual water will always be there.
