How to install a new tub without damaging the walls? Plz plz plz

@jiml5837 4 жыл бұрын

I have only ever done one tile job - a kitchen backsplash and it turned out great. I did a lot of research first, and one really great tip I found and used was to start from the second row and work upwards after first installing plywood strips for the starting point. You use a laser level to install horizontal strips perfectly level and then you start installing (what will be the second row from the bottom when its all done) sitting on the temporary plywood strips so they aren't going anywhere - no sag possible. Once you reach the top (i let it all dry overnight) you remove the plywood strips and then finish by filling in the bottom row - you can use spacers to easily get them perfect.

I just have to say, your content in this video is so spot on. I’m an interior designer and I specialize in bathroom renovations and tile design. Your method for locating the niche and laying out the tile based on tile size on site is exactly how I design showers for my clients to get a well planned tile design every time. Now if every contractor or tile installer understood this, my job would be easier.

This is the ultimate guide on how to layout the tile. The points about the center line, the bottom row and niche placement will surely set you on the right track to the beautiful tile install. I'd add that the flatter you make the wood under the backer boards, the easier all the following steps will be.

Great video. Thanks for the detailed instructions. As everything is level and you build up the wall with tile, how do you deal with the ceiling if that turns out to be uneven and not level too? Would you treat that final row of tile in a similar manner to the first row - grinding along to fit and then silicone the top? I can envision this looking ok for long or large tiles, but what about smaller or mosaic tiles? Won’t you notice that there’s more tile on one edge or the other?

Terrific channel.✅😇. Luv 🥰 It. I'm "scrubbing" through this tile Reno video in an effort to find the magic number of "CENTER". Yes! I found it watching you measure the left side of the bath wall..and BTW just a FYI to new viewers, listen to Jeff before you begin the project because he is on target regarding frustration and at times tears from feeling sheer defeat. I am taking on the walls and the base floor of our walk in shower enclosure. Watching my brothers and many "handy" family members successfully install ceramic tile, Italian Carrara, Greek marble doesn't pass through to a sister as a genetic absolute or ability. This task, or rather, this artistry takes time to learn and master. I bought a beautiful bevelled PEEL AND STICK GLASS TILE to cover the cultured marble shower surround thinking 3x6 size tile x 4 equaled the narrow 24 inch wide 3/4 to the ceiling was an absolute fit. 👎 I had almost 1/4 hanging from the edge. I bought Glass snippers to remedy the overage but having no experience using them, I only made it look worse. Ugh. I'll update if successful. Thank you for the video. I'm Wiping my tears away and heading back to work.

Jeff I really dig this channel, you and Anna White are the leads in this DIY space. I have a video request, how to install a dryer exhaust port at a distance from the exterior wall. From my searching no one has done a video on this. I have a home that had an addiction put on it. Basically an entire room. It was done to I guess the lowest bidder.. the plumbing for the washer and dryer were not moved so it is at what used to be the side door which is now the middle of the house. The wall is an outside wall, but it’s inside. How can I 1. Add a vent to go through a structure wall or 2. Should I bite the bulletin and re plumb the entire house using a manifold system, shark bites, and plastic tubes to relocate the washer and dryer to an outside wall? Really dig your channel, it’s hard to get genuinely good DIY content with the kind of wisdom you put in your content. There is a lot of knowledge out there it’s wisdom that makes your content better.

Thank you! This video in particular has been very helpful to me. I have two bathrooms to do, one at the rough framing stage ready for tile, and the other not demolished yet. I've been worrying about the wall tile. We do have a laser level. iNVALUABLE. Showing how to lay out that first row of tile -- starting at the low side and that tubs/showerpans might not be level and how to compensate for them -- and the caution to wait for the next day have saved me a lot of trouble! Oh, and how to use the plastic separators properly. THANK YOU!!

@lovefeist3136 4 жыл бұрын

For my bathroom remodel, I've been studying the installation instructions for various acrylic and cast iron shower bases. They all have a tile flange and they all, without exception, tell you to install the base or tub so that the wall board and membrane are INSIDE the flange. They instruct you to build out the studs with furring strips and shims to contact the flange where necessary.

It appears that this tub was installed against the sheetrock instead of against the studs as typically seen.

@rtkevans 5 жыл бұрын

Hi Jeff, amazing that the tiles lined up to the casing without having to be cut. If it didn't work out like that, there is another trick. You can cut the tile maybe 1/4" beyond the casing line for each row going up. Then rabbet out the casing from behind so the casing overlaps the tile. That way, the tile cuts are completely hidden and a nice thin caulk line will blend the transition...

@HomeRenoVisionDIY 5 жыл бұрын

very true. I usually just cut the tile since I am already set up for that at the moment. But good technique nonetheless. Cheers!

at about 20;10 in the video, I was remembering my first DIY tub install and tile wall. I didn't use it at the time, because I didn't find out about this until after I was finished. But at one of the box stores I seen a rubber seal that went agains the wall, and sat on the top of the edge of the tub. I dont recall how it attached, but it had a groove for the tile to set in. It was made out of a clear rubber type material. It was to help seal the bottom row of tile so water didn't seep up under the edge of the tile and the tub. This was about 16 or 17 years ago, so I can't remember what store it was at or the name brand of the product. but it seemed like a great idea.. Whats your opinion?

Hey Jeff, I’m about to tile my bath/shower, I’ve been watching many of your videos and I have a couple questions. First, I noticed you have waterproofed the sheet rock in this video. But what about the seams? Is that caulk? I have not finished my Sheetrock above the shower, so there are gaps, so after I waterproof it, do I just caulk the seams? And my second question is, I noticed you didn’t use spacers between the vertical lines of the tiles on this first row. If I’m using the QEP tile leveling system, should I also use those on the horizontal lines, so they end up with the same grout lines as my horizontal lines? Also, one last question, I don’t believe my tiles are glazed, and they are porcelain. I’m using the same tile on the floor; how necessary is a glazed tile in the shower? Thanks in advance for any feedback. Love all the videos and information. Very helpful for a DIYer like myself.

What do you recommend to clean grout and reseal. I’m getting the brown on the grout and can clean with bleach but want to clean really well THEN seal it well also! Can you Please help? I have the two “Miracle” brand “Pro Choice” cleaner and sealer from Lowe’s if that’s good enough?

Hi Jeff, is directional troweling required? I also noticed you just back-buttered the tiles and not the wall as well, im using 3x12 tile and wasn't sure if I should backbutter and also all thinset to the wall for more secure hold?

Hey Jeff I have a quick question. I saw your “how to tile over tile” video and on there you didn’t mention waiting 24 hours for the first row to dry, but on this video you did. Is there a reason you’re waiting 24 hours now but not when tiling over tile?

Nice video.. How long do we need to wait before resuming 2nd row of tile? Thanks.

Quick questions: What do you do with mud after first row of tile is drying? You had so much left in the bucket in your video. Can you re-use leftover from the bucket the next day? Hoping this is not a silly question.

Do you save your mortar for the next day or does it set regardless of covering? Is there a good way to anticipate how much you'll need for a project? What do you do with left over mortar and do you have any tips/tricks for mortar cleanup? Thanks a bunch for all your videos, been great as a first-time homeowner!

What did you apply to the joints on top of the waterproof membrane? The white lines in the niche corners and the main corners, etc. I’m wondering what step I may have missed you describe here.

Can I tile the bathroom shower with multi-size slate (as opposed to a glazed tile) in terms of water proofing? Do I need to put a sealer over all of it?

HI Jeff, Just wondering if you like the Rustoleum Tub and Tile paint to use for my biscuit colored bathtub,, or recommend a different product? I don't know if it's worth it, or should I just hire someone. I'm a pretty good do it yourselfer. Looking to sell the house, and want to keep the same color, so that it blends better. Do you have any videos that show you doing this? Thanks for your help, I trust your work.

Great video Jeff. You do a wonderful job teaching someone how to 'think' about the job, visualizing an outcome and working backwards to the starting point. On a related 'thinking topic' Would love to see you build in some 'safety thinking' into the videos. Seems as if the channel may be aimed at Homeowner DIYers and some of those folks may not be familiar with the concept of Job Hazard Analysis - that is: looking at the task at hand and asking the question -How can I get hurt? and What am I going to do about it? Again visualizing the outcome first - all digits in perfect working order, no foreign objects in eyes, no grinder wheel tracks up hands and arms, no hearing loss or ringing in ears- in other words finishing the job in the same condition you started it in. Cutting tile (or anything else for that matter) with a grinder with the guard removed might lead someone to believe that practice is a safe work practice... heck maybe even a mention of the use of a face shield, cut resistant gloves, long sleeve shirt and hearing protection, removal of jewelry that might be caught in rotating equipment and well as containing long hair for the same reason, while operating a grinder with a cutting wheel could be considered for inclusion. A perfect bathroom tile job is truly a wonderful accomplishment, preforming that task and retaining your hearing, sight, and dexterity is the "cherry on top". I am a fairly new subscriber to the channel but think you presentation is Outstanding.
