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.

    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.

    Hi Jeff, I used Schluter All-Set to set ceramic tile on primed drywall. I think that was a mistake because the all set dried out very quickly. In fact, days later 4 tiles popped off. I tried scraping the all-set off so I could reset the tiles but it took the paper layer of the drywall off as well, so I stopped doing that. Can I just use some Simple Fix or maybe Liquid Nails or epoxy to reattach the tiles to the old all-set?

    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?

    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?

    • @djblock215
      @djblock215 2 місяці тому +1

      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.

      ​@@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.

    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..
