  • Before launching in and fixing tiles to either a floor or a wall take some time to decide both the layout and setting out of your tiles. This will ensure that your finished product will look smart, correct and with no small cuts along the edges.

    Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!

    I found it quite funny that you were trying all these fancy patterns and ended up with the brick pattern for everything. As I thought you had some kind of past in construction. Keep it up!

    Another superb video, definitely one of my go to channels (along with skill builder) for DIY projects! I use a laser level also when setting out and also checking lines

    Never thought of a story stick. I just always marked the tiles on the wall. Ill be using a stick in the future. Keep up the good work. 👍

    I think the only tip that beats the baton screwed to the wall to negate an uneven floor is the one about asking the opinion of your nearest and dearest... if you're halfway through already, you can guarantee they would have done it "a different way"!! 🤣
    Another absolute corker here Stuart thank you, keep up the good work.

    Thank you for showing how to do things without all that hyper equipment as lasers and 3d scanners and rockets or something else 😆

    I always start before that point, I use the size of the room to at least try to influence the choice of the size of tile if not determine what is purchased entirely. I know this can seem restrictive but a perfectly sized and patterned layout can be a large percentage of the looks of a finished job.

    Lots of great tips, wouldn’t it have been better to put the alternate markings on the opposite edge of the stick so you could juts flip it around?

    Stuart what do you recommend to put first? Floor or walls?

    If you use the same stick for the verticals you will be missing a joint?

    Arrgghhh! **Pedant Alert** The word is 'Sliver', not 'Slither'. Completely different meanings. Nice, informative video - keep them coming.

    If you spray the chalk line with hairspray it stays visible for longer.

    The most important tile you install is the very first one.
