Good video. Thanks! What did you do along the gap at the top? Also any comment on grout selection? You’ve talked a lot about grout line width but doesn’t that also determine grout type? And with glossy tile did you use unsanded grout? Thanks.

@BillSmithBSartist Жыл бұрын

Love the horseshoe spacers. What’s the formula for determining how many? Is it tiles X 4? Thanks!

Looks awesome Sal as all your work does! Question sir.. embarking in my first tile job this week. Nervous. Tell me the best blade for porcelain and I have a few cults to make in glass mosaic as well. I have a 10" wet saw so should I stay with a 10" blade or would a 7 work just as well as a little less costly. Do I need a dressing stone as well? So many questions 😊Thx again Sal Jeff

No notching out for the cover plate screw hole? Your straight cuts must be just below it?

@BonBon770 Жыл бұрын

nice job! Do you ever go an inch or two down behind the stove, after you pull your ledger board, i put an extra row(a cut) because when you push the stove back a lot of stoves like that you can see diagonally a spot on the wall.

That’s the way to go there is those low profile glass tops now that need that done

Is the IQ saw a dry saw? If so, what do you think of it? I've seen many mixed reviews.

@SalDiBlasi Жыл бұрын

Yes, dry and yes, great saw

I'm glad I finally seen a ground fault on one of those outlets around the sink like that I says my God somebody's going to get electrocuted

@larrys5733 Жыл бұрын

The ground fault not only protects itself, it protects other outlets down the line from it. So if the first outlet on that counter run is a GFCI, then all the other outlets on that run can be regular ones. Maybe that's why you see"regular" outlets near a sink

Hey Sal, what is the name of that tile cutter you have there?

Sal,is the corner open book,why didn’t you start from there?

@MoneyManHolmes Жыл бұрын

I would have put a full tile against the door frame and ended with a 3/4 tile in the corner, but it’s installer’s preference so I’m not bashing.

Come on Sal put some protection down on those lovely work surfaces

@craigmusicss 11 ай бұрын

Also why do you back butter those tiles on a backsplash?

@craigmusicss 11 ай бұрын

1 last thing, that trim on the end where you joined it at 3/4 +1/4 would of been better 1/2 +1/2 to follow grout joint 👍 Anyway enjoying your videos as usual
