WHO ELSE Wants To Learn To Lay Tile In Less Than 6 Days By Taking Advantage Of My Easy To Follow Do-It-Yourself Tile Videos…?

Here Is Exactly What You Will Discover…

- Making Cuts On The Cutter Board. As with anything, there is a right way and a wrong way. Warning: Do this the wrong way and it could cost you a lot of money in broken tile. I’m going to show you the correct way to cut your tile to ensure you get the slice you need. Don’t worry it is as easy as doing what I do!
- Making Cuts With The Tile Saw. See it in action! You may not even need the saw but just in case you do I show you exactly how to use it safely and effectively.
- Watch Cutting Around Faucets, Jams And Wall Plugs. Sound difficult? Once you watch this video, not only will you be able to perform this task effectively but with speed. You will not believe just how easy it can be!
- Using The Tile Nippers (When And How). This is another critical task that could cost you big if not done correctly. However, once you master this bad boy you can literally cut the time of your tile job in half!
- Sizing The Joints. The size of your joints can mean the difference between a professional tile job and an amateur job gone bad.
- However, using this one short cut I’m going to show you, you could not only save the entire tile job but it is so effective that…your friends will swear you’ve been doing this for years!
- Installing Backer-Board. How hard can it be? A hammer and a few nails and you’re ready to go right? Not so fast. First, let’s go over the do’s and dont’s. The last thing I want you to do is end up ripping it up and starting over. Watch as I walk you through the correct process.
- See How To Lay It Out. Don’t go by your instincts alone. Watch my video as we get this down to a simple science using up-to-date short cuts that even many seasoned tile setters don’t know about!
