DIY Tile Floor with Peygran Tile Levelling System Review Unboxing

[@Tez73]

You are by miles the best guy on YT .

[@cafepablo]

I've laid around 500 sq feet of tile at home with the Peygran system, all at 1/16". I've done walls and floors and I've had great results. Preparing flat surfaces before tile is always time well spent, and it's no different with this system, or it ends up lifting the tiles to compensate and potentially creating voids. Good to see every tile being back-buttered (or burned) and that a membrane is used under the tiles. However, the thinset lines should be running in the direction of the short side (easier to collapse the ridges) and Peygran also recommend tapping the tiles with a rubber mallet after setting to release any tension. I think I've worked my way through 1,500 spacers by now but still working with the original 200 wedges. The tiling pattern determines how many spacers/wedges are needed, but an offset pattern consumes a ton of them. Even so, 200 wedges on a 12 x 24 tile got 80 square feet laid. Another note, is that you must lay the area in one go, as well as the edges. If the thinset isn't moist, the system can't level so leaving the edges until the next day doesn't work as that edge is immovable. I've also learned to keep the spacers near the joins, so with a third-offset like here, I would have install 4 spacers on each long edge, two at the extremes but two around the adjoining intersection to minimize lippage. In Canada, I get my refills from Amazon.

Great Vid. I am remodeling my bathroom and your channel has been entertaining and informative. Your video on grouting mistake was shocking and timely, I took the super-duper grout back to Floor and Decor for the old-fashioned product that afforded a DYI more time to clean the tile.

Might I suggest using at least porcelain on the floor if you are going to install the cabinets over the tile.Remember 40 year kitchen 40 year floor.

[@Barkeaters99live]

Perfect exactly the plan I was going with.

[@cutum]

The only issue I had when using this system is that when you tightened the wedges, the grout lines spread apart thus giving me inconsistent grout lines. I tried the wedges both ways too. You would think it would force tight grout lines, but it didnt. Worked like a charm eliminating lippage. I used12x24 porcelain tiles on my shower walls.

[@luv2play90]

I like that the clips didn't break. How difficult was it to remove them the next day? Also did you have to dig into the joint when thinset prevented all of the clip from fully detaching?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Hi David, the clips removed extremely well the next day. They were crazy strong vertically but had a great weak spot for the horizontal force needed to break them off. I didn't have any pieces left behind after 200 sq feet of that product which meant no digging and no damage to the tile.

self levelling compound is only £14 a bag in UK and that does 2.5 square metres at 6mm depth. Takes 8 hours to set and you have a perfect level surface.

[@rodolfogiles4522]

Great work💯💯👊👊👊 when you dont use clip systems do you constantly use the level to check if the floor is going flat and leveled without seeing gaps under the level? Thanks in advance 💯🙏

[@BPRescue]

I kept hoping you would slide the quarter from the other direction to see if it still hit the lip of the opposite tile, which would invalidate the test. Also maybe putting a level on it just to see the edges as well? I have not used these yet, but going to try. It seems it will be much quicker because you can avoid a level in terms of verifying your lips, but I will still pop it quickly until which time I grow confident. It's not fun being type A...

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

the truth is to try to get perfection in a basement is a really difficult thing since the concrete is actually concave itself.

[@9720miller]

Perfect Level Master has always been my choice of levelling system. This may be a cheaper alternative.

[@davidwm]

Jeff, how do you safely remove the clips without damaging the finish of the tile? Any tips or tricks you can share?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

just kick them off in the direction of the grout line. they have been manufactured with a weak spot so they come off quite easily. It is also a little theraputic. Cheers!

[@9720miller]

Also a rubber mallet if you get stubborn ones to remove. I use a white headed one that leaves no scuff marks.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Aren't we all! enjoy it . it makes life and the final result so much better.

[@brendonbasiga]

I know this is a stupid question, but here goes: when using this system, did you find that the thickness of the mud had any effect on the leveling of the tiles; or did the wedges by-and-large take care of any leveling issues?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

the wedges work awesome. Cheers!

[@engrxtn]

If the slab is concrete, why use the orange membrane? As a vapor barrier? Mapei has primer/cementitious product as vapor barrier. Thanks, great system/video.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

I used it to help raise the finished surface height. Thus way it made a very small transition to the laminate floor on a basement subfloor system. cheers!

[@edlupia5369]

The coin trick may not have worked because you tested it on the first tile and the edge of the tile closest to the wall may have been high. Creating a slope downward where the 2 tiles meet. the lippage is small but you didn't quite guaranty that the tile was level. So to exaggerate things you may have created a V at the joint.

[@cdawg9149]

Was the tile being laid on a heated floor mat????? If not what was the underlayment you were using... Do you have any other techniques for laying tile on heated floor mats...Thx for your video..

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Great question! You can lay tile on heated mats that are anchored directly to the floor with or without floor leveler. In this case I used the pro-va uncoupling membrane in order to protect the tile from potential cracking since this house was a new build and not done settling yet. It also helped to reduce the transition going to the dmx plus plywood floor with laminate finish.

[@lcook0825]

Another good one. Thanks.

[@jasonthorpe3470]

I'm replacing the tile in our entry way because all the tiles next to the wall had come loose. When I removed the loose tiles I found out that the cement slab that the floor is built on ends 3 inches from the wall and the last 3 inches of floor are on the foundation which supports the walls. The original builder's solution to deal with possible movement along the joint was simply not to put thinset onto the wall foundation so the tiles along the edge were only partially supported, which, I assume is, why they all failed. The gap is a consistent 1-2 mm along the whole wall, and the structure is nearly 30 years old, so I assume it's not moving much. How would you recommend bonding the new tile to the floor? Would simply spanning the gap with an underlayment like Ditra be okay (I was planning to put ditra under the tiles anyway), or should I consider spanning the gap with an expansion joint like Dilex BWS? Thanks in advance for any guidance and thanks especially for all your work supporting DIYer's like me!

[@nowthenad3286]

If the clips lift a tile that is a little bit too low, doesn't that lift the tile slightly clear of the tile adhesive?

[@caroljohnson8817]

What gap is best for Carrera Marble 3x6 tiles?

[@askthebuilder]

Very nice video. Can you comment on how the leveling systems don't create voids under the tile? It seems to me that when you put the wedge under stress it's going to push one tile tighter and lift the other one up ever so slightly. That void is a potential cracked tile down the road, right?

That's what I was wondering about. I haven't been able to find any info on it.

[@guess313]

Good video! Do I have to use pro-va uncoupling membrane if my house was built 12 years ago. The floor is concrete, and I want to put tile (before it had carpet)

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Hi Lisa, this is an option. we used it to help reduce the height difference from the subfloor install in the adjacent rooms. If you want a simpler product for crack isolation, which in my opinion is well worth the effort, then use the Mapei product. Just check with the local dealer and ask for crack isolation membrane. It is a roll on just like paint. and works wonderful.

[@jakesgamesnat6508]

would a system like this be good for tiling a wall? My tiles are 4 x 16 inch subway tile so I'm not really sure if it will be enough surface area to use the wedges.

[@safemasteryoh2717]

Jeff I have a question, I'm going to start to finish my basement soon. I'm going to use Drylock on my walls first then use rigid foam board for insulation. Does that sound ok to do?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

If you have a block foundation it is a good idea, but make sure you have proper slope and drainage outside before you begin! Ridgid foam is good for R5 per inch just try to keep a small airspace so that the walls can breathe in case some water works its way through. You don't want to get that musty smell down the road. And check your building code for insulation in your area. If you under insulate your walls you will get frost and then like I said musty!!!

Thank you for the advice Jeff

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

I tried the coin trick not realizing that the floor actually has a bow due to the concrete pouring process. It would never work unless the substrate is level as well.

[@WmRios]

@Home RenoVision DIY , People in comments criticize all things related to clip systems, and it amazes me how they blame the clips, instead of addressing all the procedures necessary to start out with as flat a surface as an acceptable tolerance, and to correct subfloor where necessary before you begin. The clips are for adjusting final millimeters of lippage, not meant to correct all other imperfections with subfloors. Install your clips and still double check with your spirit levels or re-do it again and again ( at your cost ) until you understand what customer satisfaction means. Hi-Rise inspectors or homeowner can easily put big X's and you will have accomplished nothing with all your speed tile tricks and shortcuts. D.I.Y. or seasoned pro, the idea is to keep the lippage very far and away removed from your work. No call backs equal better profit margins. (IMHO)

[@chava3032]

Is it faster using a leveling system than trying to free hand and trying to make them perfect?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Not just faster but guaranteed to not have lipage.

[@yusuihang]

Jeff, did you check the flatness of the substrate and factor that in any way when you're planning your tile layout? I couldn't find any videos in which you even mention this. In fact, it looks like that all professional tile setters on youtube just lay large format tiles on a substrate without regard to how flat the floor is. I have not seen one youtube video in which the tile setter uses a leveling compound to level the floor first. (The only youtube videos that demonstrates leveling compound are from the manufacturers of the leveling compound.) This just seem very surprising to me as I certainly would not be surprised if there's at least 1/2 inch difference between low and high points in many floor substrate. Is it just common knowledge among tile setters that you would be able to get a tile floor level regardless of the substrate just by varying the thickness of the thinset (through tile application pressure) as you go along? However, I do see tile setters on youtube shim out supporting studs behind wall board substrates that will be tiled, to make sure the wall is flat. Why is there this apparent asymmetry between the flatness requirement of a wall vs a floor, for tile setting consideration?

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

No! in a basement there is always a little slope. this small variance is normal and it is best practice to just use the leveling clips to create good joints and follow the natural curve of the floor. Leveling compound for a whole basement will cost you a thousand dollars and in the end you will not be able to tell the difference in most situations.

[@yusuihang]

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY Didn't know that leveling compound could be that expensive. Maybe that's why I never seen any tile setters on youtube use it. But they occasionally shim out studs in open walls because it's economically viable, unlike floor flattening.

Best to mud those square holes in of any membranes first, before setting. Makes for much stronger bond and you can actually see the chalk lines.
