      I was about to type "This guy sounds exactly like Matthew McConaughey" -- then I saw your comment. Guess I'm not the only one. Now we just need him to scream "Murph!!!" a whole lot and the video will be perfect. :D

    I'm in California, and saw this guy's post on next door, about his family's pig giving birth, and scrolled the page to see if there were more pictures of the piglets, and the next thing you know i'm watching videos about how properly to tile a bathroom! Good ol internet! 😂 Gotta say this is a really helpful video.

    What did you do about the toilet flange. Did you lay the toilet right on that, did you install a flange extender to get it to sit on top of the tile, etc?

    • @TheJhtlag
      @TheJhtlag 3 місяці тому

      my understanding is you want the toilet flange to sit on top of the tile so that the toilet seals well with the flange.

    When using ditra over plywood, use “modified” thinset. I followed and I had to do it over again.

    • @georgekirby5992
      @georgekirby5992 3 роки тому +3

      Agreed, but you need to ensure your subfloor is adequate for large format tiles. The larger the tile, the less deflection your floor can have, otherwise you will have cracks.

    • @charlesmirabal1671
      @charlesmirabal1671 2 роки тому

      Agree that a 12 x 12 tiles is faster than 8 x 8, but large format tiles are so much more work and require much more preparation of the subfloor.

    Question on the timeline. So after you've added your grout, you have to wait 3 weeks before any additional work such as installing the vanity/sink pedestal and toilet?

    • @nelocks3664

      No- 3 weeks until you use the grout sealer. 3 days before you can walk on it

      No, for a floating floor aka "the slats that fit together" use a proper underlayment like pergo gold. Unless you are planning to glue down your hardwood flooring.

    I thought the toilet flange goes on top of the finish floor?

    • @GageDrums
      @GageDrums 3 роки тому +2

      depends. if you're tiling it will sit below. just make sure your seal..seals.. I like the new rubber seals. typically they will have instructions that state to add an extra ring if the flange is equal to the finished floor.

    • @georgekirby5992
      @georgekirby5992 3 роки тому +1

      @@GageDrums Toilet flanges should be on top of finished floor, tile or otherwise.
      The flange and the toilet are designed to be a set height off the floor that the toilet is setting on.
      Putting the flange on any layer other than what the toilet itself is set on introduces the risk of leaks from improper seal with the wax ring (or rubber/silicone ring if you prefer).

  • @crossroadsreport9675
    @crossroadsreport9675 5 місяців тому

    Good video. But these are encaustic tiles, or at least made to look like them, and should never be installed without a border. Home Depot's mantra is: You can do it. We can help. Yes. You can install a new door or lay a new tile floor. But we've lost all respect for style and true craftsmanship. Because of Loew's and Home Depot, most American suburban homes have the wrong style of front door (usually Victorian door on a colonial or craftsman home - Yuk!) and tile floors without a border. Anyone with the eye of an artist can see immediately it's all wrong.
