Do you use a tile leveling system?

[@hongkongphooey78]

Heart goes out to the one that didn't make it.

[@jesuslopez4113]

I did tile for 15 yrs and used the raimondi system. Doesn't get any better than systems like this , but I quit tiling 5 yrs ago and just install hardwood, lvp, and laminate now, my hands have never been happier

[@stoneydrivesrc7420]

Yeah, I use those clips of mine aren’t as cool as yours and I have to put them all in myself. They don’t walk I want the walking kind like that.😮

[@Heckrund]

How you remove them afterwards?

[@errldabbins]

Rubber mallet, they snap off. You reuse the wedges

[@1toshi32]

Our tilers did that with our bathroom. Looked absolutely amazing. We had a builder come and put in tiles in our toilet the old way with the plastic stars because he was doing other work in the house. Way worse than the bathroom. Should have got the tiler back.

[@carlosvillegas4740]

Its beacause different brands change the size even if its supposed to be the same grout size

[@1toshi32]

@@carlosvillegas4740 When I mentioned the difference, he said he used the same spacing as those that you used in this video. 3mm. But it still looked way different. It looks less than 3mm to me. Very clean and even.

[@carlosvillegas4740]

@1toshi32 caused i used two different brand of spacers and the size did change and both were supposed to be 1/8

[@1toshi32]

@@carlosvillegas4740 Makes sense. Thanks for that information.

[@thejoke2791]

These are mainly used as levelers than spacers. They make the tiles flush with the next if there's little dips and bumps on the sub floor

I never even considered that that is how one levels tiles.

[@sa4540]

A plasterer I know said he’s not a fan of these, as he believes is encourages tilers to rely on not doing a proper basic job. I disagree. Why not use technology and other methods, if it makes life easier and does a better job!

how do you remove the spacer after?

[@taterthot1184]

U don’t u just remove the wedge they snap off

When and how should the spacers be removed ? Is it the one which you hit on same direction as the grout line after it’s dry?

[@amen9455]

Thank you, it helps me a lot 👌🏽

[@d1greatsmith675]

This adds 3+ steps to the process and if you dont know what youre doing they may cause voids in your tile.

[@rorymessner673]

I was just gonna say this…usually I don’t use spacers because they are super inconsistent, I space them using my laser eyesight lmao… no but really it’s a little easier and faster just to eyeball, and you level the tile just by the amt of thunder you use

[@rorymessner673]

Lippage prevention. They don’t level tiles. Prep and skill makes the tiles level.

[@kenkotula9883]

? I had trouble removing the tabs ???

[@Eylandertile]

Could be a combination of things. It’s best to keep it clean around the clips and always kick them out next day if possible.

[@kenkotula9883]

@@Eylandertile they didn't want to break they chipped some of the tile used on the walls also tried to cut with variable saw please show a video of removing them

[@Eylandertile]

@@kenkotula9883 was it a soft ceramic that chipped? In that case might wanna use pliers to pull straight out or not use them at all if they are damaging tiles. I’ve only had one system do that (I’ve tried maybe a dozen) and it was perfect level master on some porcelain floor tile which was odd. I attributed that more to the tile then the clip tho.

[@jordantyldesley8689]

you knock the wedges through and it breaks off leaving the bottom of the clip unseen under the tile 👍

[@jeffreytaylor-qh2fq]

tile guys gonna hate but that's ok. ppl are starting to do tile with no grout. all butted up n whatnot. wanted to cry really loudly n say man stuff for five seconds when i saw it first time. had to admit it with a shrug n a half smirk. looks good n really doesnt trap dirt. come to think of it saw it for the first time when i did it. saw it again a few times now though. 😊

i personally would use this system yoir creating voids under yoir tile i use the pullit up chrck coverage add and remove nessary thin set look repeat until its perfect

[@frankcatrini4816]

with a lot of new tiles, especially planks, no matter how flat the floor is, you cannot avoid lippage because the tiles are bowed. if a tile is bowed , your not going to flatten it with more or less thin set, so you have to use a leveling system to bend the tile flat.
