I think he did a stellar job explaining everything quite well. However, I might point out that you NEVER want to swirl your thin set mortar before applying tile. ALWAYS straight lines and back-butter each tile to insure a perfect contact and no possibility of corner cracking from un-even weight. Just a suggestion. Thanks

That is a brilliant video mate, really well explained, what lots of professional people don't always realise is exactly how much knowledge they have and how they sometimes take it for granted what they know hence they don't always fully explain the whole procedure to the lay person. Superbe and thanks.

Hi guys, nice tutorial, just two small hints : You should ALWAYS leave a gap of 5 - 8mm between end of the tile and the wall, NEVER push a grout in it (unless it is elastic, goes for the corners where walls meet as well), always use sylicone(because of tiny movements of the floor(walls). Saves a lot of headache, because tiny crack in the corner(which WILL HAPPEN) is really hard to clean, you may not be able even to see it but water always finds its way ... use dark opaque sylicon (not transparent or white which will show tiny specks of mold through after some time (same goes for kitchen worktops). When grouting, you should ALWAYS push the grout in at the angle of 45 degrees to the tiles(goes especially for the cleaning of the grouted tiles with a sponge as well!!), otherwise the sponge is pulling the grout out of the joint what results in uneven depth of the joint between tiles. Hope it saves some unnecessary work and improves the looks of the tiled spaces.

I watched this video, and I do not think so. Many problems. Not everyone has an electric tile cutter! Marking that has drawn on the floor of this "instructor" does not match the tiles. The joints between the tiles are uneven! Chipped after electricity cut. And others. This work is not for the room in which you will live!

True but you can always angle grinder the tiles. A little dusty but gets the job done. We use masking tape between the tiles to help get the tiles to stick together better - helps keeps the spacing even. A few good tips though.

Dude, use a grinder with a tile blade... Maybe you should make a video better if you think there's issues!
@olegm9736

Exactly! When I use angle grinder with tile blade for dry cutting (sleek), I make the cut at an angle of ~25 degrees in the direction of an unnecessary part. This avoids chipping much better and in this case you can don't use duct tape! If "little dusty" you always can use a vacuum cleaner and a dust collecting pump nozzle (usually from diamond cup wheels). Cheers!

Living in a rented apartment at the moment and it has a cold marble floor with no insulation. To make matters worse, the stone is coarse and the dirt gets into the crevices. I considered polishing but the floors look ugly and it was going to cost more than retiling. Thanks for sharing. Seeing as how I'll probably be in this place for another year and a half, it's worth the money and effort. Again, thanks for sharing.
