HOLMES MAKES IT RIGHT: Wedged To Perfection

From apprentice to pro, Sherry's got her tiling down pat. She shows us how practice makes perfect with a little help from a wedge of reason.

Love Sherry, her attitude, personality, and very hardworking. Love how she is very eager to learn and improve her skills constantly. The type of employee that all employees should strive to be like.

I use to watch this show all the time .. I remember when Mike Jr & Sherry first came on the show ... As young kids

[@tknoerle1451]

I loved seeing those wedges she used. After years of setting tile professionally, I wish they'd been invented when I was in the trade!

[@AneudiD78]

Somebody from the trade probably invented it. You know how it is when you worked for so many years, you come up with a clever idea. And in this case, the idea worked.

[@dudeduderinoduderino9689]

Ohh, her eyes lit up when dad said you wanna make Carl jealous? Oh, yeah, was the reply. YOU like that dont you, yeah I do. Thats dedication and pride in her work. Good on her, like father, like daughter.

[@jacquescomtois1131]

[@ninjaturtle1057]

Probably the best tile floor i cn in my life

[@tess1822]

Sherry is gorgeous

[@timcombes9054]

Good for Sherry! Nice job!

[@EdgeStripKits]

I am so glad that they are Back-Buttering the this particular tile.It is VERY important to get thin set coverage on the backs of the tile to help to achieve as close to 100% as possible. I do know of a tool that helps to cut down on body fatigue as well as fully supports the tiles when back-buttering. It's called the Back-Butter Buddy

[@SomeDumUsrName]

You obviously missed the fact that they are not bedding the tiles hardly at ALL. They actually have full coverage of thinset on the skim when they backbutter BUT, without bedding the tile down, they only achieve ACTUALLY 60-70% support of the tile.

[@vassa1972]

Loved the show

[@jpwheeilng2000]

So I love the New Way of leveling the Tiles, so there Smooth against Each Other, How do take them out.

[@tombutler6827]

I use to watch you All the time. 🍻 Been a minute.

[@kathleenadams6421]

Oh my gosh! I love this!

[@alathenasidericus]

I so want those spacers! That would have made tiling my kitchen so much easier than with the leveler! ;)

[@siripaaye4029]

Not pressing the tiles after laying? :o

[@joushuahhall6644]

Good job Mike

[@joushuahhall6644]

Good job Mike Holmes 👌 from Josh

[@ArcticArsenal]

How do you remove those spacers that the wedges go through? They look like they go under the tiles. Do you break off the top part and the rest of it stays there?

[@rickblaine7463]

Yes

[@MrTooTechnical]

Kick ass

[@luckystrike5338]

Aren't the Holmes all about "Safety First"?? She wasn't wearing a dust mask when she was mixing the mud

[@MrGraygrizz]

Nice job!

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

Why do I see a piece of tape on a lot of the thin set mixing bits used in the drill? I see this often in home improvement.

[@trooperandcooperale3057]

?? Thinking that's the brand sticker when it's on the shelf and heaps of lazy people can't be bothered to remove the label.

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

@@trooperandcooperale3057 Some of it looked like blue or green masking/painter's tape, though.

[@trooperandcooperale3057]

@@Guillotines_For_Globalists or different brands

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

@@trooperandcooperale3057 Dunno. Still does not look like a price tag to me.

[@trooperandcooperale3057]

I happen to ran into a plaster on the weekend... it's there to stop the mix going any further up the paddle and continuing into the drill.

[@itsurman]

Will the wooden floor not crack the tiles if it expands?

[@jumpinjojo]

itsurman The underlayment prevents that.

[@kamuranergin9409]

Super wow

[@tombutler6827]

I cut the cable. Free Tv. Antenna 😜

[@rmontyw]

whats the name of that wedge system? Where can I find it?

[@yashar1991]

those can crack easy using that system specially with those long tiles :(

[@chrisgro7660]

I agree, I just take the time to pit some more mud where needed to raise to where they need to be, too many empty voids their way.

[@tombutler6827]

Dude!!!

[@erinsutherland1195]

Sherry reminds me a lot of Mike....it's sort of like Mike is Sherry.....interesting....

[@storbokki371]

Man, at 1:33 I forgot my own name for a few seconds. :P

[@SomeDumUsrName]

Man ain't THAT the truth. Bouncy bouncy! ;-)

[@michellacasse9250]

who was the other cutie ??

[@Handi2478]

That would be “Pinky”

[@cassetoi09]

i didnt like the finished job @6.23 tbh

[@troyqueen9503]

No protection from the dust when mixing the thin set, you might as well be a smoker.😷

[@emotionalintelligence776]

Mixed outside with plenty of ventilation are you sure you are are not the one smoking something...

[@petecockett8291]

Sherry...🔥🔥🔥hot, hot, hot!!!

[@dylandjm99]

Holmes don't need a helmets.

[@miketrujillo5138]

mike. earrings are for women? whats going on!

[@TerryProthero]

A man can wear them if he's big enough to kick someone's behind for teasing him. Otherwise, I don't recommend it. I saw Mr. T. wear a pink shirt. Similar rule of thumb.
