I used vinyl baseboards in my laundry room after I tiled the floor. I used a sealer under the baseboards as I installed each piece to make it water tight. The finished look matched the baseboards in the rest of the house. Just an idea.

I agree with Rob Roy I used to cut pine boards in a random shape with a jig saw then burn the wood with a blow torch and wire brush the burnt part away bringing out the grain I then stuck photographs onto the wood overhanging the wood I wood then feather the edges with a wire brush .I would then paint burnt amber around the edge and spray with clear plastic spray.I use a rubber pad clamped between two pieces of wood to to bring out the grain through the photograph.

hello there. ty for the vid. I need to know how clean the grout line needs to be before you put in the grout. I think that on some of the tiles there is going to be mortar in the lines. As i lain the tile I took a putty knife to it. I was afraid that I would mess with the cohesion of the tile. Anyway. the tiles are almost dried enough to support me getting on the floor to apply the grout.

THAT'S why the wooden baseboards in my bathroom look so moldy and mildewy. I knew there had to be a reason. :) I don't mop, I swiffer, if anything (I'm lazy. I just let the Roomba do it, and screw mopping altogether), but I wouldn't doubt the previous homeowners mopped occasionally, and of course: it's a bathroom. Super humid environment.

Question: the tile that's been in the house for the last 50 the grout doesn't crack or chip off ever.. HOWEVER someone install some tike in my house last year and it's cracking already. The floor got wet and it really cracking down. Why is 50 years old grout not cracking at all and 1 year old grout cracking fast?
@Tonyhouse1168

Sounds like they didn’t use enough mortar or thinset underneath the new tile so the tile are shifting when you walk and it causes the grout to crack

It's always nice when the client brings you a cold beer or cocktail. I have a question, please don't reach through the interwebs and slap me. Why do you grout all over the tiles instead of just grouting the joints? It seems like a waist of grout, plus the amount of time it takes to wipe up the grout that is all over tiles.

I do exactly that. I'm not a fast contractor. I'm slow, clean, efficient, and meticulous. If you go slow and are careful you can usually do it. Best to bear in mind though that is after many tile jobs and like someone else said it's quite a bit trickier to get with 12 × 12 tiles.

It's also just better practice to sponge the whole tile if you are new to tile. There may be some thinset,dust, or pencil marks on the face. I use a rubi bucket and sponge and it cuts the time drastically. A good grout job and cleanup will hide the imperfections (horrible to say but truth).
