Looks great. The sealer really enhanced the color. Nice work.

That looks awesome. I'm ready to tackle after watching this video lol. Great job

Great job! We seal the tile before installation also i find it helps thin set not penetrate the surface when installing because its very hard to remove after.

Beautiful job guys 😀

Thank you for the video, some awesome angle cutting, luckily my 3 steps are square, now feel more confident to tackle them :)

Looks great. I always loved doing slate because when it's done and sealed it looks sooo great!

Great job. Excellent installation skills.

Gorgeous.

Bacan ! Bro you are an expert !

Thats really nice

Nice work.

Wow. Very nice

Quedó chingón, como siempre 👍🏿

Beautiful job man!

Personally I feel leaving risers to last is incorrect. The most common symptom I see from risers last is a crack or broken edges on the step edge after some time. I suppose if the top step is absolutely overhanging the thickness of the riser it's ok, but that rarely happens. I bet some of the steps were out, so on one side the top step tile was overhanging 1/2 inch, but on the other side 3/4 or maybe even 1 inch. This creates an issue when installing risers; as theres a void if your not gushing the crap when installing risers. Personally i believe the process should be risers first, but shimmed up so the tread slides underneath. If the risers are done first, then the gap filled, so the tread is completely gap free, then once it's time to install the treads, it's a much stronger edge that wont crack or break off...I know this way takes more planning and time, but imo it's a much more solid edge...if you had a one step job or let's say a curb in a shower, would you install the top of curb first, then sides? I wouldnt, I install the 2 sides first, then the top of curb....

Wow that’s incredible!!!! Beautiful job!!! Do you use a special thinset for exterior work ?

Great job guys 👍 looks really nice. Did you use regular thinset or modified for this slate job?

Very nice. I have installed slate once or twice and I remember the variations in the thickness of the tile. I can only imagine how long that would have taken one tile man by himself. Very tetius and time consuming work.

That was a big job, you made it look easy but I know for a fact slate isn’t the easiest tile to lay. Great vid, keepem commin :)

You have a new follower

So cool to see something like this done. Absolutely killer job Bro.!! I'm a bit taken back the customer didn't want a bit more rut color to tie into the door color. But, anyways it came out Stupid Dope Fresh!! Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!

Hey Landberg..great job as always..what did you use for the enhancer?

Great work. These exterior jobs don't last a year in cold Midwest weather.

Hi, what grout do you recommend for slate on something like this? I'm basically doing the same tile except it's a walkway outdoors. Do you just use standard sanded grout? Or something else like Mapei products?. Also, did you just use penetrator sealant? Thanks!

Like it

If this were indoors, would you use edge trip or is that not typically used with slate tile in general?

You don't do any waterproofing /antifracture on this? Especially outside? What type of thinset?

Hey beautiful work brotha. I don't know too much about slate, maybe, but how did you space the tiles? Did you eyeball it or is there a method? Thank you for your answer....

What kind of thinset do you use with this ? Mix with water or polymer ?

I've done dozens of these jobs in the Midwest. Your job looks wonderful! I did these the opposite way riser first. If you install slate like you did in the cold climate of the Midwest they would pop off after the first year.

Hey LT-TV, I got off subject question. What are those boots (1:08) you got at the beginning of the video, if you can remember? I used to wear Caterpillar but they don’t make anymore style I liked. It must be soft toe! Yours look super similar to mine so I thought to ask. Was researching for my small slate stone repair I have going on and your video popped up. As always … a true gem. All the best and happy new year.

‘Sup man great vids. Quick question. What type of mortar? Did you use a decent LHT type in anticipation of thicker bed under some tiles? Keep ‘em coming and take care of yourself out there.

So I have watched you do multiple tile saw comparisons, what is your favorite tile saw?

Where did you get the tenneau cover?

Where can I get that tile?

Looks great, is that Indian slate??

Awesome job looks great. How long did that take start to finish?

Another awesome job What type of stone enhancer/sealer was that and how many coats?

It looks like you grouted after you did the sealer/enhancer? Does that make it easier to clean the grout off the tile? Do you need to go back and seal the grout too? Thanks.

I've done enough of this myself to realize that it's so outta sq. to do it brick pattern to help out some with the joints😟 but looks amazing after enhance 4sure

👍👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥

What is that saw that requires no water?

You forgot to show the best and most fun part, grouting 🤣. Is slate still very popular in California? Here in the Midwest, we would do slate showers and patios almost every two weeks, a couple of years ago but now nobody seems to use it now 🤣

Ok weird question, but those pants!! Where did you get them?! They look like quality work pants for our chosen paths in stone work

What would a job like this cost

Nice work, I know how frustrating setting that is. A little trick to fix some high corners is after set and grouted take a cold chisel coming in from the edge then give it a tap.

kick ass. in cold climate it would fall apart. but fucking awesome work.

In ur opinion if I could get the iq saw in cold minnesota for 1100 bucks should i?

Is the work slower now, with all the crazy stuff in the country

Looks good , must be nice to switch it up and get out of a bathroom lol

It looks beautiful and I was all set to do mine until a contractor friend told me that the cracking, patched just like what you have here, will absolutely re-crack with the next freeze and thaw. I've had my project on hold for over a year now because I don't want all my hard work to just re-crack! Any suggestions anyone? 😖

I like you pant for work where can I buy it

Your video is nicely edited, but I was surprised at the lack of detail. I'm coming here trying to gather some tips for installing some very similar slate tile on a floor + wall, and I feel like you only had a very small amount of information here. But then like 10+ seconds of you folding up the saw and moving it. It's neat and all, but I need info too!

what's the brand of your work pants? neat!

Did the client not want a piece of schluter on the edges?

Fucking phenomenal excuse my language! 👌

Totally custom dude! I didn't know that they were still putting that cheap junk in anymore. I was installing that stuff nearly 30 years ago and I thought it was a fad then. Crude, irregular and high maintenance. There are better stone products for the lo g run.

I hate installing slate...It looks like shit until you seal it with an enhancer, then it looks beautiful.

My bid $8,000
