    I have the same issue with my shower walls where my backerboard is lower than the adjoining drywall. I didn't think to use a notched trowel when applying my first coat of thinset and then apply a 2nd coat using a flat trowel. Thanks for the advise!

    Good videos, thanks. Most gloss over the prep work or are so shaky and poor quality they are unwatchable. Your videos are a big help on my bath remodel.

    I am waterproofing the seams now, I watched your video first and it was really helpful! On the video you mentioned using the roller next. Did you mean rolling the hydro ban in the whole shower?

    So can I use cement to joint cement board to drywall or I have to buy some special adhesive/mud to do it?

    can I tile over a semi-gloss painted wall ? If not, what do I need to do to keep the tiles on the wall?

    I know this is an old video, however, I have noticed I have lippage between my kerdi board and drywall. I am off by maybe 1/8 of an inch as I apparently didn’t apply enough thinset during the wet shim process. Can I use this same method over kerdi board with all set?

    Hi brother, I have one question:
    Is it possible to use thinset to level concrete floor as preperaruon for tiles? We don't get the self levelling cement product in India where I live so I need to find a good alternative method

    What do you do if you have to much build up? Are you able to sand it down?

  • @oraclebusinessintelligence4072

    How do you smooth the seems where you put the thin set? How flat do The seems need to be?

    • @SoThatsHowYouDoThat
      @SoThatsHowYouDoThat  Před 6 lety

      +Oracle Business Intelligence I use the flat side of a trowel or a taping knife. Just don't cause a hump.

  • @oscarcastillocancino6474

    What kind of tinset did you use

  • @juancervantes561
    @juancervantes561 Před 5 lety +1

    What cement did you use to level the wall

  • @MiddleAgedMomsMakingMusic

    What kind of thin set are you using to level? I'm confused about whether to use non modified or modified .. ?

  • @ladykilla6
    @ladykilla6 Před rokem

    Hi, is the goal to “flatten walls” and make them completely level? Or just flatten any dips or humps?

    • @SoThatsHowYouDoThat
      @SoThatsHowYouDoThat  Před rokem +1

      Flatten them but where the tile ends you will want that to be level for the best visual.

    why do you put backerboard 2 inches inside of tile?

    • @SoThatsHowYouDoThat
      @SoThatsHowYouDoThat  Před 7 lety +1

      So then the sheetrock can be finished at that area and be ready to receive paint. If you want to extend it go right ahead.

    @MrKadidle51 Před 7 lety +1
