A new video (2023) released covering a complete, stud to waterproof shower, install with Schluter kerdi walls, niche, shower pan, linear drain and bench. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnTRk3eJaNlkfJY

[@jimweyland15]

Was concrete board used and what was used on the seams of the membrane?

[@louisfain]

5 minutes into the video I decided to hire somebody to re-tile our bathrooms. Your video made me appreciate the amount of workmanship into tile work a lot more.

[@nicholasyoung8657]

Same lmao

[@EricRodriguez-cx9ug]

Same lol

[@bobgillis1137]

Its enjoyable...until you are in your late 60's. Gonna have to rebook my acupuncturist and massage therapist soon. !

[@Sumfinfunny777]

I just started working as floor associate at Home Depot and im watching your videos so that I can be better at helping customers 😅

[@drulamane]

Damn they ain’t train u? 🤣

[@billymacktexasdetective5827]

​@drulamane The requirements to work at lowes, home depot etc are a pulse and a clean drug test. 99.999% of the people working in those places know NOTHING about anything they sell... And the companies aren't wasting money to train people...

[@mikesutch2333]

I approve this message

[@kevingage6676]

This is the first video I watched from this channel. It crossed my mind that they did it on purpose. You will always remember this is the one you watched.

[@tylersmith1029]

The consistency of tile that you are doing throughout your house is really nice. Thank you for showing common obstacles and how to overcome them with simple solutions, as well as other ways to solve a problem when a tool happens to fail. The house projects are looking great! Keep up the great work and well-produced videos to make the process much less intimidating.

[@horsefamily32]

Thanks for this. I just bought tile for my whole house and I haven't tiled before. I was going to do hardwood, but I got the tile at a steal.

[@CrazyAustin48]

Your editing skills are FANTASTIC! You have the same ideology as most children shows..lots of transitions perfectly timed for right when my attention span goes out. Keeps me interested. I love it! I think I’m going to do my tile job on my own.

[@michealfletcherjr.3125]

Thank you. I have an unexpected tiling project for our remodel. My cousin gave me this video and I feel much more confident about what I have to do. Thank you!

[@easlandscaping]

Excellent video, about to re tile our entryway and haven't layed tile in about 15 years so this was a great refresher!

[@antoniotovar7426]

Thanks Tyler, I just installed my first tile floor and your guidance help me a lot

[@marymcune4222]

Thank you for taking your time to explain why you’re doing each step but also keeping the video concise! Feeling much more confident!!

[@RonRivet]

Well done! Thanks for the refresher. I've installed tiles before but you reminded me of a few tips that I had forgotten like having fresh water around at all times and not using the dirty part of the sponge on the tile with grout. Doing a tile job today. Appreciate the refresher. God bless. 😊

[@larryfinfrock4857]

Tyler, your enthusiasm and clear friendly instructions make you a jewel in the diy world. Just see on shining!

[@dubsdaboss6126]

[@georgeeads8689]

Great job Tyler. Good info. I have one suggestion. Knee pads. Take it from a 62 year old that didn't use them. My knees are not in good shape.

[@foofstarr4856]

I saw him wearing knee pads at one point. But yes definitely good advice!

[@bazzani21]

Knee pads or a knee pad. For sure a requirement. This coming from a 42yr old hvac guy

[@danielleterry2331]

[@Longbowan]

Thanks, I had questions around the toilet and water feed thanks for posting man.

[@lamontjackson2939]

Thanks Tyler. This was very helpful!

[@pauldemeules9927]

Tyler just a heads up, the toilet valve looks to be a threaded type. So you do have some options and I would suggest to use the ball type not gate type of shut off valve since the gate type will eventually stick (sometimes) then when you go to shut it off then it can start to leak. Anyway, after replacing all my gate type shut off valves with the ball type (they do make them nice chrome so they don't look any different) it makes toilet or faucet repairs so much easier.

[@briangraf5274]

Yeah I was going to mention that water inlet was actually a compression fitting and threads on and off

[@samel-amad7548]

Great informative video. Thank you

[@mijalic1]
