You're a legend! I never see such a professional tile installation on my country... Not to mention the dustless process... WOW
Appreciate the nice comment brother!
You videos and work is always amazing, u have amazing skills with nice tools. Because of you i knew how to do a niche before i did my first niche in showers last year.. Keep up the amazing work bro as you continue to educate us.
Appreciate the comment, I'll keep the videos coming and we are still learning also every day! We never stop learning 👊
Always excellent! I follow your tip about first matching the tile veins and flow, which makes a big difference in the final appearance. Before I would just grab whatever came out of the box. Always learning something from your videos and watching for pointers. Grateful for your videos and sharing of your knowledge!
Appreciate the comments! 🙏
Definitely pro!14 years contractor I’m impressed with your work ethic.
Thank you brother, work hard blue collar support!
Great Video of tile installation! Very clean ! explained and shown in detail.
Love your work you make me wanna tile all day long !! Great job!!👍🏾
work harder nobody cares! 👊
Nice way to explain how to fallow the pattern
Thanks, it's a must with carrara!
great work and soundtracks were amazing . !
I like writing on the back. I always write on the front and low and behold it comes off. Lol.
Never disappoint brother! I've been watching and learning from you for quite awhile... kudos man
Heck yeah Anthony! I appreciate the comment brother, I'll keep them coming!
Keep up the great work and videos love it
Thanks! Will do!
Nice 🤙🏼Thanks again for sharing
Y’all inspired me
I’m almost done,first time also with Schluter system
You got this! 👊
Never seen someone trowel in the same place so many times as u before 😂
I've been to every Schuler Seminar I really love their waterproof system.
Tile work is one giant mind fuck but you do a good job.
Let me know what type of coffee drink I need to get some
no coffee here, running in the morning gives you energy all day long! 👊👊👊
You do fantastic work. Love your vids.
Yes sir, thank you!
Love your work, love your videos. I also use Schluter products exclusively but I scrape a bond coat into my Schluter fabric or boards. I'm sure it's in the material directions.
I love you vids man, keep up the great work👍🏻
Thanks, will do!
Great videos as always. Concise and well edited. You mentioned taking the time to match the veining and movement. I can see from your video that it’s worthwhile to do so. Could you explain briefly your process Bof matching? Chose a gold calacatta for shower wall so similar with yours. I was thinking of just having the tile setter do a random pattern but after watching your video I’ve now changed my mind.
Purchase extra tile and lay 5 or so stacks around the bathroom walls. You simply need to hold each tile up to find matches. It takes extra time, but well worth it.
@@LandbergTileTV Thanks for you response. Good idea
Amazing work
1) How did you ensure a clean cut (no chipping) with the snap cutter? You sanded some tiles and not others.
2) Why was a seam placed in the middle of the niche back? It appears the niche back is smaller than a full tile, yet I've noticed many tilers creating a seam. (We will begin tiling our master bath in 2 weeks. Thanks for these tips.)
Our Montolit usually cuts super clean. We snap it and hit the edge with out 50 grit diamond pad. No need for a tile saw other than the notches (Iq dustless). We cleaned up all non buried cut edges. The grout line behind the niche is necessary if you want to follow the 50% offset layout. (full below the niche)
Getting ready to install the same type and size tile in my DIY project, was that a 50% offset or a 33%? Thanks in advance your videos have been such a help along the way.
Thought I was getting a shout out with the R2 on the tile! We tile....my companies name is R2 (R squared construction). Lol
Well shoot, I'll have to shout out mikebsexy from R2 construction on the next vid! 👊👊👊
@@LandbergTileTV lol!
You do great work man either way we learn and try some of the things you do all the time!
Love the attention to detail with the vein alignment, particularly below the niche towards the left side. The tile thickness looks massive. Can you share the tile manufacturer/name ?
You got a link for that fancy laser stand? Another great video btw.
Yes sir I do, I added the link in the video description. It's awesome!
Great job 👏
Random comment: to see you like my Reel on da Gram was an honor!!! Now if I can finally get a follow back I won't know what to do with myself!!! JK,JK,JK Landberg!! You're a freakin tiling Stud!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Oh & stay tuned... Rockin a 2020 Lime Green Huracan Convertible on Fri. Oct.29 for a NYC Halloween Party.....
For sure Mike! I don't get on IG very much, only to post once a week and yeah, I'll stay tuned brother! 👊
How accurate is the size bar on the scribe cutter your using there on the sigma it's bang on noticed you marking tile with a tape after taking size respect great job as per usual
Great video as always
Appreciate that
Sick video! Cant wait till i finally do a shower
Will be up this weekend! 👊
Madre mia, valla alicatador estas hecho. Atornillas una tela impermeabilizante, El cemento cola te reboza por todas las juntas, mides con el metro para cortar una pieza teniendo la escala métrica en la cortadora... vamos,.Un crack para dar ejemplo en este medio
estás confundido pero eso está bien. Sé lo que estoy haciendo. impermeabiliza los agujeros de los tornillos con la banda kerdi después de quitártelo
Good job 👍
Thanks 👍
If the tiles require a 3/16" grout joint (12x24 offset 1/3):
1) What size silicone joint do you leave between the top tile and the ceiling, assuming the ceiling will be left untiled?
2) What size silicone joint do you leave between the mosaic floor and wall tile?
3) Have you ever used a Schluter Dilex EKE in place of a silicone joint at plane changes of floor to wall and wall corners? If so, do you have suggestions for ensuring a good seal and fit? Thank you.
always perfect
Love you man, love your channel. Super informative. I renovate bathrooms as well, i was curious if you dont mind me asking, what and how do you charge for your projects?
can that tile be layed in a straight stacked pattern?
i enjoy your videos a lot .i have a question on wat size of square notch to use on 12x24 tile . witch one you recommend .
Try screw few more screws in there
I think I did the same tile in a couple showers this summer. Did you find that a lot of the tiles had the same or similar patterns?
Yup! There were a lot of print re-peats. It's usually like that for us and manufacturers.
Isn't it best to install bench b4 wall tile?waterproofed better having wall tile overlap bench?
It doesn't matter with a seal system like Schluter. We keep watershed in mind, but at the end of the day, the bench is 100% waterproof with a pitch and slope outside the shower.
What tile saw is that? Not the IQ the manual one?
Montolit
You never bisect 50% with large format tiles. ALL MANUFACTURERS state this even on boxes.
If we could use Ardex x77 on kerdi and still get the lifetime warranty we wouldn't have to put up ledgers. I also wrap corners but I do every row at each wall at the same time because I don't trust remembering or chipping one the next day. You're in a world of hurt if you have to take the set piece off if you find or chip your drop.
Bro.
Hot glue your ledgers! It works great, and doesn't puncture anything.
band that puncture son!
nice vid. wheres your buddy. And did u cut the shear tie in the wall?
He was taking care of some business 👊
Great video. What kind of thin set you use for kirdi board. Thanks!
All set is our go to, super strong bond!
@@LandbergTileTV Awesome. Thank very much!!!
Roughly how many bags of thin set did you go through for installing the 12x24 tile for this particular shower?
3 bags
3.5 including the prep (waterproofing with band, Schluter pan, curb etc.)
@@LandbergTileTV thanks man I appreciate it
imagine being this guy on a subdivision.
What size Quadec did you use?
Jolly, 3/8 matte white
👍
👊
👍👍💥
Lol boi spent time making waterproofing and just in a second ruined it all with screw holes to lay down first row oh gosh
I always lay my floors first.
Can a good tile installer make $100.000 in your area?
anything is possible
That shower is going to fail
You DIDNT waterproof the walls with red guard or any waterproofing paint
I didn't see you backbutter!
I'm confused brother, what are you saying?
@@LandbergTileTV , Did you back butter the tile?, I didn't see you do it
@@twoserve2449 backbutter is a must brother, we backbutter subway tile these days.
@@LandbergTileTV , If you did, I apologize, I just didn't see you do it on the video!
I noticed that you used the 1/2" notch trowel, but why did you opt to just back butter the tile and not back comb it as well? I thought standard practice when using a lippage/leveling system was to always comb both the tile and the substrate to ensure there's enough thinset behind it. I've used the RIDGID system for a few years now, and if I did not get enough mud under the tile by backcombing it as well, the spacers have enough force that they've pulled the tile completely out of the thinset. That said, I have also had issues in several areas with excessive squeezed out as well. Still learning. Still improving. Any advice helps. Thank you.
Schluter products aren’t professional!
A morter float is
You take a lot of pride in your work, and yet still do it wrong.......Weird
how did we do it wrong?
@@LandbergTileTV To each his own.......
Hate it all
What do you mean? Foam or the tile?
@@LandbergTileTV tile is great but we float , I'm a GC and I have a guy that can float Walls faster than you can turn around twice compared to the orange stuff.
@@patrickjohnson7801 that's awesome, never want to lose a guy like that.
@@LandbergTileTV he also does work for a GC in Redondo Beach that has flown him to Colorado and Vergina.
@@patrickjohnson7801 dang, he must kick some ass with his shower floats!
