Tiling Countertops is also available on DVD.
Ceramic-tile countertops can be as attractive as they are practical. And a small countertop is the perfect introduction to the techniques of tiling. With a bathroom as his job site, professional Michael Byrne demonstrates how to get traditional results with modern materials. You'll learn how to work with both backer-board and mortar-bed substrates, how to trim tile around a sink, and how to detail your countertop for a clean, crisp look.
By watching Byrne, you'll learn how to:
- Lay out tile for an orderly appearance in any shaped space;
- Determine the proper consistency and coverage for thinset;
- Cut tile, using a snap cutter, biters and a wet saw;
- Finish a grout job that requires no next-day scrubbing.
As Byrne demonstrates his craft, you'll experience firsthand the pace and subtleties of the tiling process. See companion videos, Tiling Floors and Tiling Walls and the companion book, Setting Tile, available separately. Page numbers from the book are keyed to the screen so you can refer back for more information. |
