Skill Level Required for Tiling?
Cindy wrote:
Hello, I'm debating tackling re-tiling the kitchen floor and bathroom walls. I have zero experience with tiling but have seen hours and hours of DIY shows and it doesn't look that difficult but I'm sure it never does! Assuming I can get a decet tile cutter, is it worth it to attempt it myself? Thanks, Cindy One of the more important steps in getting a professional-looking installation is taking some time to do your layout. Little slivers of tile around the edges of a room or at a doorway look terrible, and are a pain to cut. My parents had a tile job done in their kitchen where the tile runs into the family room carpet on an 8' convex curve. The guy who did the job took the time to get the tiles centered on the middle of the arc. No one really notices WHY the job looks so damn good, but everyone comments on the floor! |
