Great review. Thank you! It's been four years now, so did it stand the test of time?

Great information on how to make sure you have enough material, or in some cases, not too much, in areas to create a uniform level/and or flat floor. You should definitely create a video showcasing how to prep, layout the grid, pour, move the material, and finished floor at the end! Alot of youtubers show them pouring it but do not show the level/flatness at the end, because I'm guessing it really is neither of those when they don't take the time to do it right.

Anyones knows what kind of pain should i use for this type of board??

Hey! I have a couple questions if you don't mind! What kind of mesh tape did you use at the bottom by the tub flange? I see there are different mesh tapes for different applications, cement board etc. Also, I'm going to tile the bathroom floor using a Schluter ditra decoupling membrane - Recommendations on how to waterproof between the membrane and the bottom of the tub skirt? Thank you! Finally, I want to significantly improve the waterproofing in my entire bathroom, including the walls. Any recommendations on this?

Awesome. Thank you.

Can you convert what is 1 quart

How do I know how much thinset to mix? I need to cover a 10 sqft area, using a 1/2 in trowel. The tiles are on the larger side so I was also planning on back buttering the tiles.

I am concerned that when using the 1/2 x 1/2" notched trowel that you need at least 1/4" room to wiggle the tile sideways when setting itand that's fine for all tiles except when you get against the end of a row and the last tile only has 1/8 "against the wall and 1/16 on the grout line against the previous tile on the other side. Then you cannot wiggle sideways to collapse a 1/2" ridge. I thought you could change the ridges directions horizontal for that tile so you can wiggle forward backward instead of sideway but now your ridges extend the full length of the LF tile and that is more risky to leave trapped air. I am preparing to install 15"x30" porcelain tiles 11 mm thick and hesitate between trowel sizes. If you could pitch in would be good. Thanks

I have a bag of cement can I make thin set from the cement?

Just curious, why would you use tape for the tub joints but not corners? Great video!

so wouldn't it be a good idea to use mesh tape into the joints with the sealant. and in the corners to make it stronger

What size trowel for an 8x8 tile?

Schluter Allset ratio is incorrect, consistency was like soup

thank you for your video: munch appreciated!!!

If you are a tile guy, I must be Jesus Christ

Great video. What were the vertical gray shim pieces for?

Have you added Mapei Kerabond premium to the list yet?.

Mapei Kerflex Plus By volume: 3 Parts Water 8 Parts Powder I experimented with many ratios This recipe works amazingly.

This is the 1st video that has actually given me a quick straight answer I was in need of. Use 1/2 inch trowel for 16 inch and larger tiles. Thank You. The HD floor guys in the store near me are mostly not trained to answer anything but the most basic questions.

I see you are using a Dewalt. How did you like the Delta? Assuming you prefer the Dewalt?

He tried. People got to remember, tile guys are human too.

I just mix it by eye. I add to water and mix until I get the consistency I want. Not rocket science.

How come you don’t use the flat 1 1/4 washers designed for that board?

Thank you for posting I will try this soon

Thank you, for your expertise, Sir ,

I've been following your bathroom renovation projects and appreciate the insights you share. I recently conducted a detailed exploration into the safety and installation practices concerning foam core backer boards, specifically focusing on the critical role of wood blocking for secure grab bar installations. Our findings highlight the potential risks and structural integrity issues that can arise from omitting wood blocking, even with the most reliable materials and techniques. Given the importance of safety and durability in renovations, I thought this information could be beneficial to your projects and audience. Incorporating wood blocking can significantly enhance the strength and safety of grab bar installations, a detail that's often overlooked. I'd be happy to share our findings and discuss further. Keep up the great work, and thank you for sharing your knowledge with the community!

I want to install new 12x12 tiles in the bathroom of my new house....old house but new to me. I didn't even know that you had to put in lines. I'm getting from this video that I'd use a 1/4 for my purpose?

can you add to your cheat sheet Ardex X5

Quarter inch notch trowel sold at Lowe’s

holy cow, ads are longer than the video

Welcome back! Since you’ve been gone your video about 1/3’s saved my butt on a bathroom remodel.

I meant to say Bedrosians CLO-EE tile. I deeply regret this error.

Worst website ever. Chart behind ads and a registration.

Hey James, I just wanted to thank you for your great video on how to mix a small batch of thinset mortar. The mortar I used was Custom Versabond LFT and your cheat sheet was right on the money. It couldn’t have been easier once I tracked it down on your website. Your tips and tricks also came in handy for a DIYer like myself. Thanks again, Mike

I was told to use a 1/4 x 3/8 trowel for 3x12 "subway" tiles and it seems too deep. Might it be better to use 1/4x1/4?

tf bro? why would you not show the measurements

Do you still use mesh tape at the flange or have you switched over to the GoBoard tape? Also, do you now use GoBoard washers in conjunction with the fastners? Thanks!

Works everytime

F the membrane, waste of time & money. Use GoBoard, window seal caulking on the seems & screws, then red guard. Cheaper, better, less weight on the wall and faster.

Where did you get the long shims that the go board goes into to cover over the tub flange?

Thank you

Great video!

Thank you

Does the henry stuff need plywood to be primed?

Show us the cheat sheet instead of having us go somewhere else, if you make it even more user-friendly, then you might get more subscriptions. Some of the good learning woodworking websites that I use consistently have over 1 million subscribers. Usually because they don’t have a lot of baloney they just show you and teach you what you need to know without going through hoops.

I’m sorry dude but I went to your website for the cheat sheet and it wanted me to sign up for something with my email, not very user-friendly.

Thank you! My problem is the tile vibrate then moves during the cut, difficult to cut a perfect line.

How do I mix a small batch of mapei mosaic and glass mortar?

I like this product and your demo. I have a question about an observation at time marker 6:11 - 6:17. As you are screwing in the next section I notice you have strip(s) of, for lack of a better term, 'foam backer' pieces stapled to the stud(s). But there's another piece sort of loose material behind the board as you drive in the first top screw. Is it the same material & why?
