Great job, I know they sell a kit for raising your drain for $6 or $7, but it’s so exact and your drain opening must be exactly 3 3/8” center to center for the screws to align. Your way of cutting PVC outside the screw holes is much simpler and the idea of cutting the new PVC drain is brilliant. 😊 Thank You.

hi a very informative video. When finishing off the corners with silicone, I would suggest first tooling off the silicone with your finger first, then spraying it with water, followed by a spray of soapy water and then another tooling off with your fingers. If you spray the silicone before tooling it off, you prevent the silicone sticking to the tiles on the feather edges of the bead and mould will establish in these areas. cheers

This is an excellent video, possibly the best on this subject (I haven't watched them all...) and I send the link to everybody who asks me about tiling over tile in the shower. Even homeowners who won't do the work need to know how to do it to demand the best result from the installers they hire. This was a superb job in all details, which unfortunately required many work interruptions and return trips that most professional installers would try to avoid by cutting corners to make more money. The results of this job depend largely on the detailed work that only a knowledgeable and careful installer can deliver **IF** they are paid enough for the time invested.

Fantastic video. Your instructions were clear and detailed. I appreciate the effort. I am going to pull out the walls in my shower but tile over my floor since it doesn't leak. Surprisingly I picked out the same exact tile from Lowes. Can you tell me what color grout you used. It looks perfect with the natural stone. Also, is it over kill to paint on a membrane like Redguard and if I did go that route would you suggest to put the primer over the Redguard? Thanks
@renovationschool8818
@renovationschool8818 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching 🙂 I don't remember the grout colour but I'm sure I showed it in the video you may be able to see what brand and colour it was if you watch the video one more time. just use any sanded grout that matches the colour of the tiles ( stay away from premixed grout they suck so much) As far as applying redguard on the old tiles it depends, if your tile has a rough texture it should work, but if the floor tiles are shiny and big redguard will not stick as well as this primer. this primer adheres very well to tiles even if they're shiny. if the shower floor doesn't leak I suggest using the primer overall. If you want to use the redguard id say to apply this primer first and then apply the redguard on top if you want to. The primer is used for bonding the materials. All the best 👍

I've been doing a lot of research. I have the same drain as yours. Do I have to worry about weep holes not being in the drain? I have a sloped shower floor that drains to the middle but not sure if they used a motor bed? My plan was to sand, apply the tile primer, then a coat of Red Gard, and then install Kerdi membrane and a Kerdi curb to make sure the floor doesn't leak. I do have a small leak on the outside of the present curb which is probably wood and not sealed properly. Any thoughts?

Thanks for watching Professionals always do the walls first. Be aware if u do the floors first establishing the first row on the bottom of the walls will be difficult for DIY guys because u need to get perfect grout lines. Since shower floors are sloped you need to cut the bottom of every wall tile according to the slope ( only the bottom row will be hard to do) but let's say if you are not very skilled with tile work you can do the walls first and hide the bottom row cut imperfections with the floor tiles.

Thanks for watching and the kind words. if u dont have any water and leaking issues , I would suggest washing the tiles super clean first and then when its bone dry, clean it with alcohol. Then apply the primmer that i used in the video. when primmer is dried up use modiffied thin set (that i showed in the video) and skim coat over the rock tiles till its smooth, making sure its slopped properly so when u tile over it the water goes to the drain. allow to dry up for a full day and then tile over it the same way i explained. basically build a layer of modified thinset on top of the rock tiles after the primmer is dried up and make sure its slopped properly before tilling over it.

so did you wait in between the thin-set and grout? Did you allow the thin-set to fully dry first or just added the grout once you completed the thin-set application? Thank you

I did the tile the first day and grout the next day. You need to allow the thin set to dry up completely

Hi, This looked great. My only question is how did you fill the area right around the drain? There was rock missing and then it was there.

hi I removed a few stones from a sheet of tile and then placed some around the drain and also at the very end part where the shower curb is because these tiles have different sizes of rocks in them it made it easy and simple. i just placed whatever that fit perfect in that area.

I am tiling over an existing shower surround but I want to go higher up on the wall. Is it OK to put some thing on the part of the wall that doesn’t have tile to match the depth and then tile over the whole thing? What should I use?

For sure you can do it Depending on the thickness of your existing tiles. If you have exactly half in thickness you can use backer board. If it's a quarter of an inch u can use the very thin drywall they sell at the home depot. If u use the drywall you have to make sure to waterproof it before tilling.

aside from silicone you use on the corner, what is the alternative coz i don't like to use silicone on the corner, can i use grout on the corner?

OK, so grout will crack , the tile or better to say, walls and the entire house expand and contract, things shift in the house or the house settles after time , these will cause the grout to crack on the corners at some point. because grout is hard material. Silicon is soft and after the expansion and contractions happens the soft silicon will also move with the walls or shower floor corners and it stops the water from seeping in and causing mold or water damage behind the tiles, that is why you see pros use silicon on the corners. now there is a specialty silicon that has grout mixed in it, it looks exactly like grout but it has silicon mixed in it , it comes in a tube and it applies just like the regular silicon, I will leave you a link bellow so you can see it , you can get them from home depot , lows and any tile store. over all that's the idea behind using silicon on the corners. there is another type of grout also , its called polymeric epoxy grout , that product is a crack proof, but its very hard to find and its very pricey , its very hard to clean and it will leave a haze on the tiles when you're done. you need to wash the tiles with denatured alcohol many times after the grout job is done just to remove the haze. i used it twice and I regretted it both times. it will add a lot of unnecessary cost and labor to a tile project. I hope I answered your question , thanks again for watching. here is a link to the silicon/grout mixture that I was talking about , it comes in sanded and none sanded packages depending on what grout you use. www.homedepot.com/p/Custom-Building-Products-Polyblend-380-Haystack-10-5-oz-Sanded-Ceramic-Tile-Caulk-PC38010S/100678064

Great video! I have a shower tile floor that has a low corner where water pools. Probably 1/4" drop in a foot, but in the wrong direction. How thick can you lay thinset like this? Enough to be able to correct that slope, or does the whole mudbed have to be redone at that point?
