| Now you can tile any wall in your house. From layout to grouting, professional tilesetter Michael Byrne offers his expert insights into the techniques you'll need to accomplish this task. In this Tiling Walls DVD he teaches you to see the creative possibilities in awkward situations: a badly placed pony wall, for instance, becomes an attractive focal point when you tile it with a cove and a contrasting pinstripe.
Rich in visual detail, this Tiling Walls DVD is clear enough for beginners and specific enough for professionals. Now you will be able to tile any wall in your house.
By watching Byrne you'll learn how to:
- See creative possibilities.
- Use a jury stick to compare alternative layouts quickly.
- Apply a moisture membrane for a waterproof substrate.
- Mix mortar and float a vertical bed.
- Cut and shape tile, using biters and a snap cutter.
- Grout tile.
As Byrne demonstrates his craft, you'll experience firsthand the pace and subtleties of the tiling process. Tiling Walls is companion to Byrne's book, Setting Tile, sold separately. Page numbers from the book are keyed to the screen, so you can refer back for more information. Companion DVDs Tiling Countertops and Tiling Floors are available separately.
Michael Byrne has been a professional tilesetter for more than 30 years, teaching tilesetting seminars and workshops throughout the U.S.
