  • I have been installing tile for over 25 yrs and found this video is giving a lot of wrong information such as: you use 1/4" board on your tops not 1/2", you do not use board over the drywall for the backsplash. You can remove the drywall then install the board, but never over the top. I have noticed that tile setting is not done the same way from the east coast to the west coast and also from Canada. Talk to an actual tile setter, he should give you proper information on setting tile.

  • Liquid nails over thinset, 2 inch staples over drywall screws, hardi backer doesn't expand. You dont need to put hardibacker on the back wall, tile directly to the wall, unless you want to cap the top and sides.

  • @PacificRain53 You need 1/2" So the counter top thickness is 1 1/2"

    I assure you children know foul language. We all knew them in the first grade. It's the first thing you learn in school.

  • @mypalrocco so why keep replying? 

  • @gwhand39

    A) How terribly ironic that you should lecture me and refer to education, or lack thereof, and then misspell the word "intellect" of all things, amongst the other misspellings! You are not very bright and therefore, you're beneath me...you're not even worthy of my attention, you fucker!

  • @mypalrocco Americans(well most with anything above a third grrade education) also know how to restrain themselves from juvenile behavior, you however are still acting like an angry third grader who just lost his recess for the third time in a row. Grow up an act like an adult (if it isn't too difficlut for your under-developed intelect).

  • @mypalrocco You just did. Yes people who have children do use foul language, but this is not the forum for that kind of speech.

  • @gwhand39

    So? People with children don't use "foul language?" Listen, if I wanted to hear from an asshole, I would've farted!

  • @mypalrocco Why the foul language? Is it really neccessary?! No. Remember, there are people with children who watch these videos!
