That’s legit for areas with dips

Great explanation. Camera work of a 2 year old. 😂

This was a good video, thanks. I was wondering how that foolr is holding up? If you know. Im building a transitionless shower on concrete slab. I need to raise the floor up to match the 1-1/8" Ditra shower pan that will also be on slab. The plan is to use multiple layers of concrete backer/hardi board to accomplish this. A Ditra heat duo membrane will be the final layer. so 1/2" + 1/4" + 5/16" = 1-1/8" I was considering using the Hardi board (1/4") first on the slab then a 1/2" exterior grade plywood then regular Ditra Heat (1/4"). how would I bond the plywood to the Hardi board ? I could go Hardi board, 1/2" cement board, then Dirta Heat Duo (duo has the thermal break) ? Thoughts? Anyone? Lol.

The diamond drill bits are the best way to go for porcelain tiles.

no face mask no hand protection no eye protection it's likely he will need arm protection

Not really round but yea..

We just remodeled our bathroom and the plumber that came did exactly what you're saying not to do... I have pictures, he directly attatched the new copper to galvanized pipes.. What should I do?

👍👍😉

You got a new subscription my man

True porcelain tile is the same colour throughout the tile and surface , the tile you're using has the same colour glaze as the body (glazed porcelain ). This means that if it chips, there is less chance of seeing it compared to light body porcelain and dark surface glaze. Thank you for the video.

Trying to do this super patience involved and clean surface. These large porcelain tiles keep snapping

You Da Man

Very good video and really helpful

What if the nails don't go all the way down from ramset

Great demo. Just a question on the bullnose - this would seem to work great where the tile surface and porcelain are the same color - like your gray example (very nice) but I'd guess it might not always turn out as nice as yours did. Something to keep in mind when selecting tiles.

Great video! Very direct and helpful, thank you.

Is the only solution for coupling to galvanized at a threaded point? If crap is too frozen to back off the thread do you just cut & rethread the pipe or is there a sharkbite type fitting for coupling galvanized to copper?

Nice!

I appreciate seeing the failures.

So what type of drill or nail gunur using to put the hardiebacker over concrete

Nice job

Will this attach and work on a ryobi angle grinder?

doesn't look like it bullnose to me a better of with full router 👍

Great and to the point video, what speed setting/rpm on the grinder are you using?

This is exactly what I'm thinking of doing in a room that has carpet currently and needs 1/2 to come level with tile throughout house so I can lay Vinyl plank. Question if I only use thinset do you think I would have issues over concrete.

No safety glasses No safety PPE at all 👎👎👎 DELETE THIS VIDEO

So, to be sure. If I use concrete screws, I won’t have to use thinset underneath the boards? And if I use nails, use thinset underneath? I know I will tape and thinset the tops, but just want to verify the underneath for Hardiboard on top of concrete slab.

I though floating was water proof.

You mentioned there’s waterproof behind the mortar. What did you use behind the float??

Thanks for this video. New diy. Can I use 1-1/4 inch driver cement screw to screw a 1/2 inch board to the concrete slab? Do I need to put thinset before laying down or I can bypass it since I’m screwing it down? If not thinset, can I use liquid nail to do it? I’m hesitate to use thinset since I don’t have any or afraid to use thin-set

Very helpful. What, no eye protection?

Why so much adhesive look like your building a wall with that bed

U R my hero! I've wanted to do this for a long time now in my home, but I'm a DIY dude not a contractor. I could not find anybody who could tell me why NOT to do this, but I could not find anybody who successfully did this with good results. THANK YOU!

Like always short and to the point. Hope subscriber's pick up. Best tile channel out there.

Why would you install hardy backer over a surface that is already for installing tile over??, all you needed was a good coat of MBP

Your videos are actually unique and useful

More videos. Good information

Awesome information.

I want this product so plz address

Good info. What substrate is below the aquabar paper? (On studs)

Dal tile doesn't sell this I'm in Michigan. Is there a link u can send me so I can purchase off Amazon or something

What brand is the profile wheel your using

Great job, where do you get the p egg ofile wheel. The big box stores did not have them.

Could you list the equipment used?

That's the best way to go though vertical or flat I apply hardy board for everything but I always mud whatever I'm attaching the board too then I nail it guaranteed to never pop

Did you mud underneath the backy boards that would be the way to go if you don't want any popping up

Do you recommend doing this on shiny porcelain tiles?? Looking options for stairs when they dont come with bullnose..

Thanks for the video! If installing over concrete, what type of screws are to be used?

If you wanted to add a shutoff valve, could you thread a brass valve directly onto the galvanized pipe?

Do they have tee connections with brass?
