I'm a 34 year old man with hardly any trade skills who was raised without any father figures. I dreamed of having a father JUST LIKE YOURS. God bless yall and remember to count your blessings! Cheers boys, badass looking bathroom too!!

    Hey brother. Really like your videos. Love the good positive attitudes. Im commenting because I wanted to let you know something about this prism grout. Ive been a commercial tile installer for 40 years. Im a huge custom blend fan. The area rep is a friend of mine. I know your going strictly by the instructions, however, you can use just a little more water in your grout. Not much more but a little. The manufacturer is just covering themselves for fear of mixing TOO thin. Couple more drops will make your life easier without compromising quality. God Bless

    A TON of appreciation for grouting with the fast stuff. I did it once with the fast stuff without realizing it was the fast stuff on my bathroom shower reno. Did all the walls and floor and by time i had gotten it all down it was setting up on the surface of everything... and I was hosed. Spent 3 months of nights and weekends trying to get that stuff off once it set on with drills chemicals and selective scraping... and even then its still not perfect to me.

    Giordano plaster guy showed a rapid set stucco, that was mixed and set by the time they walked around the house. Old buckets he says is the culprit. Some new buckets and spotless mix paddle can be the fix.

    I highly recommend putting a pre-filter on that shop vac (e.g., the kind that act as a modified bucket lid). They're a bit clunky/ cumbersome, but they *really* cut down on filter replacements and help keep suction high.

    • @northernlightsrenovations1710
      @northernlightsrenovations1710 2 роки тому

      True, but in a smallish bathroom the extra hose and bucket are just too troublesome to deal with imho. Most of the bathrooms I do are 5' x 10-12' so they generally are pretty tight spaces. Instead, I use a filter bag in addition to the regular shop vac filter to help with that issue and then I don't need an extra dust separator.

      @@northernlightsrenovations1710: I just put the bucket in the bathroom and the vac outside the door. If you're going to have one or the other in a small room, the bucket is smaller than most vacs.
      Granted, maybe the customer doesn't want the vac outside the bathroom, but it's definitely worth it to me not to lose suction, and the bucket is easier to empty than a vac is. Just my 2 cents.

    Hi guys, I have a little tip for floor tiles that are not square. Place each line shifted by 33%, this way it hides if there is any uneven shift on the next line of tiles. Look it up "staggered 33% offset tiles". They look like stairs. PS. Love the new music.
