"Maybe your water's wetter, I don't know.." My favourite line in this video. Jeff, I could watch you build a house from the ground up with the way you entertain your audience.
You really are the man. Renovated 75% of my house using your videos as a guide. Have been waiting to do backsplash while some of the settlement takes place (did some jacking and reinforced the basement floor) and now that its finally set, I was getting ready to look into back-splash installation...BAM a full video on the process. This channel probably saved me $10,000 on our house.
that corner you see leaving your bedroom, with the ugly tile off-cuts, is the corner where you put the cookie jar(s). Source: My grandmother's house :D :D
And draw even more attention to it? Jk. Genius
Dear '3rdParty' person, it's not necessary to wear a mask - especially given that you're not in physical contact with those of us connected through the internet. It's a sad state of life to feel that much insecurity. I could just cry seeing whoever you are keeping yourself concealed. We're not meant to live like that 😢.
Crowdsourcing information on products and materials is such a smart idea! 💡
Looks great Jeff! Fab to see someone with actual talent online these days
I love the white claw just hanging out with ya at the job site LOL.
Love all those little tricks like measuring the untiled wall and checking the length against the tiled wall. I'm just a DIYer but those butterfly wings tiles drive me nuts too!
I lolled he said that’s what happens when you follow the directions! 😆 the directions say to hand mix 😂😂😂
Thanks Jeff. Always look forward to your videos.
Always enjoy watching ( or mostly listening) to your videos, peeking up now and again to watch while I draw or play a phone game. Your info is well placed,and your voice is very relaxing. 🥶🖤🔔👍🏻❣️
Love the M + J on the window
It's for Mike and Jeff.
Silly boys😅😅😅
Also when you cut the tile around outlets,you need to unscrew the switch or outlet and leave enough tile so the switch or outlet is supported by the tile after installation, otherwise you have to use screw spacers to account for the thickness of the tile.
thanks for saying this I would have overlooked it for sure
Great video as always Jeff. I was having flashbacks of working on the tile in my buddies basement from 3 years ago. Thanks for your help with that one! It really turned out great. Scott from Japan
Glad to help
Jeff, did you not film the install of the countertops? 🤔 I have been anticipating your install techniques and advice, 😀
Jeff, the pre-roll ad was for KILZ and said sponsored! I know you always joke that you're not sponsored by them, but it looks like they listened.
Thanks Jeff, amazing video as usual. Wondering how you completed the trim around the window where you didn't have tile on the wall? Did you have to add a backing so it is flush with the tile?
Awesome
I learned from these new grouts to hand stir it because it generates heat and makes it set faster That's why the manufacturer say hand mix just sharing
What do you think of putting double sidded tape for tileing. My friend did his backsplash with it, and it looks great. It has been 3 years and still on.
Question! I’m going to be tiling my kitchen backsplash and at the first of this video, you mentioned that you take the plugs out a bit and put the tile behind, but you didn’t do that lol
Yeah, it's the best way. Unscrew the outlet and fold it perpendicular of the way it sits, with the power off, and push it into the box so you have all the corners exposed.
You can even cut the tile to cover the sides of the boxes just a bit.
Once you cut the you you'll just need to make a very small notch with a grinder for the screw holes, top and bottom, and you're good.
If you don't do it this way you'll have to buy plastic spacers to screw between the back of the outlet and front of the box. They sit on the screws but will push the outlet outwards.
Thank you very much for your help! I thought that was the best way to do it!
@@djblock215, true, but Jeff did say, with the construction of the doublewide, they set the electric boxes slightly proud of the drywall. So the tile/thinset will probably come right close to filling that gap. Making the plugs and switches flush with the covers.
What laser level is that!
I have a home that was built in 55 that needs a lot of work it has floor joist and i need to level the kitchen I’m in Florida and it only has about a 6” crawl space any ideas Jeff
Jeff, what are your thoughts on SimpleMat from Home Depot as an alternative to thinset over drywall?
I know Jeff said why in the beginning, but I couldn't find it again. Why couldn't you use the adhesive with this back splash, and am I able to use the adhesive for a back splash if it's drywall, or do I need to undo the entire thing and stick in hardy backer or something like that?
Hey Jeff where can I locate the products you sell? I know I bought 4 inch gimbal lights of your website about 3 or 4 years ago. However I can't find where you sell all your products now I just see Amazon links
Did he paint the outlets twice? Even when he has tape?
It's hard to tell, but are the outlets and switches not extended out to be flush with the tile? It looks like there's a gap between the outlet cover and the outlets themselves. It didn't appear that spacers were used unless I missed something. Shouldn't the outlets have been extended out?
Hey Jeff, Nice job! Had a question... I had our kitchen done a couple years ago and have granite countertops. There's also a ~4 inch granite backsplash. I was thinking about doing tile above it. Should I remove the 4 inch backsplash and put the tile in, or put it above? Or not have the 4 inch granite at all? Thanks for the great videos!
You should take out the 4 inch granite backsplash. It just looks better without the 4 inch granite backsplash
@@davidmills9229 Thanks! That's what I was thinking. I hate to lose the granite, but the tile will be awesome!
@@davidmills9229yeah having that extra layer between makes it seem clutter
I would remove the old for sure. Cheers!
The bumps are properly called lugs and tile with them is called lugged tile.
What color is the cabinets? It looks grey, and sometimes it looks like it has a teal tint
Monsieur Jeff, if you ever get asked to build a gabled awning over a front door with wooden brackets instead of beams, and you wonder if anyone would appreciate a video of you building it, know that there is one person who would appreciate it (and that person is me... I would like to see a video of you building an awning... I'm shamelessly trying to coax you into making that video).
Do you cover how to install those wood countertops?
Yeah he posted new video on it
What tiles did you use? Where did you get them?
H>D>
Can you tell us what countertop you used and where from?
It's butcher block, available in Home Depot and Lowe's.
My buddy used butcherblock and coated it with epoxy resin.. turned out great
In your previous video, the old back tiling was gone. I was worried you skipped documenting this part.
Wondering what to do. We have hired a contractor and they used keri-board shower pan, wall, and curb. the drain is sitting 1/4th to 1/3 inch higher than the mosaic tiles and you can tell its not even pitched properly.. they did deep pitch around the drain but not across the whole shower pan, it looks like a rollercoaster around the walls, you can feel dips across the ground, some tiles are on angles where its not level with some overlapping.. they are saying that the grout will fix it but unless they completely grout over the tiles by 1/3 inch.. I don't see how that would fix anything.. not sure what to do.. they installed like 36 by 60 inch tiles on the wall but there is huge void gaps behind the tiles. any recommendations.. they said I'm not a contractor and don't do it on a daily basis so I need to trust them..

At 13:07 you said you were going to be pulling the outlets out and setting the tiles behind the top and bottom metal tabs, but you clearly didn’t. Why did you change your mind on that?
My question is why would you want to change out the tile when it looks good already???
I feel that if you are happy with it stop part so HARD I destroyed many a Drawing by wanting perfection and ruining the whole thing it's such a terrible habit to pick up and you should get rid of it really fast cause it's gonna make life so much easier.
Great Video as always Jeff easy to listen to voice as much explaining and showing as anyone could need the Cameraman is getting better by the Video and you two seem more insync every Video so he focuses on stuff you talk about before you get their it's so smooth.
Question. Why even cut the drywall out and put cement board when you’re going over the drywall on the top?
the old tile destroyed the paper surface to the point that it needed to be replaced. Cheers!
Great job as always but if it was my kitchen I would go to the top of the wall with tile and not paint. But that's me.
👍
What do you do if it's 100 year old house with lath and plaster and asbestos in everything
Wear a mask during demo, or just put 1/4” sheetrock over everything and start over
I just bought a 1974 home with asbestos and the abatement starts today!
I hate being that guy but I think you should have back buttered those tiles
Why didn't you just use 1/2 backer board in the first place instead of 1/4", now your using 2 different trowel notch sizes. Was there a reason you did it that way?
the vinyl wrap is 1/4" drywall so this was the closest fit. it i removed all the drywall then all my electrical would be swinging free since it is only attached to the drywall and not the studs
@37:00 why are you working backwards ? "thinking ahead" , does it not make sense to work from the corner?
If you start working backwards from a full tile, all the cuts will be hidden in the corner versus you thinking you've made the cuts right and you get the outside edge where everyone can see it and you find out that you need another cut
@@aliciakernen5712 aaah yes. That makes sense! Thank you stranger!
Above the stove in the center, you didn't go all the way up. What is going there?
There's electrical wire than will be used for either a microwave or stove vent
@@djblock215 thank you!
Newbie here. Why cut the drywall out to remove the old tile, rather than just demo the tile out and then patch and fix any damaged drywall after the tile demo?
I just did backsplash in my kitchen, very difficult to remove old tile, the adhesive sticks to the tiles really well to the tiles and the drywall. For mine I did both, removed one section of drywall and tile and part of it I just removed the tiles because I had several plugs but it was very difficult to remove only the tiles and the drywall needed lots of patch work to prep for new tiles.
What you’re talking about would take all day to do. What he did took 1.5 hours to do and $20 in cement board to replace
@@surlycanadian OK thanks for the info.
Didn't need to replace the drywall with cement board. Could have just removed the tiles.
they were siliconed on to a vinyl wrap. no way to demo that without tearing the drywall to shreds. saved myself a lot of hassle. Cheers!
"So many reasons why i dont use or buy pre-mixed grout" --> doesnt mention a single one ;/
He said it dries quicker in the pale. Our local tile shop seems to agree with this. They don't do installs with pre-mixed and the they don't stock it.
and that's why builders have lung problems in later life
I don't know what happened today, but today's tile placement is not up to your standards, Sir.
What do you mean
