  • iọng của Đức Phúc nghe ấm và nhẹ nhàng nhưng vẫn đầy trầm tư nội lực!! Like this version!!

  • You don't have to do any cement backboard, cements boards are "old school, waste of time.. just install the Schluter Kerdi waterproof membrane over the drywall and DONE!

  • Loved this video!!!! I've done some tile work before but this was an awesome refresher course with great reminders and updated methods since the last time I did it was 2007. 🙂

  • Look the way you explain, short but very informative 😎

  • thanks! My neighbor slammed my walls w a led pipe, now unc and I must repair!

  • Tip, buy Bosch or dewalt or some other impact drill,everything goes down,bit more dust though

  • Why do you sound like Cortana?

  • I appreciate the lessons being given, but that pattern mix between the floor and shower, do not look amazing at all! 😁

  • How did you get the adhesive off? thats the only hard bit

  • Who is this broad? I miss Tony from how to install waterproof vinyl plank flooring

  • In many years of remodeling houses I've never seen a female do this

  • The demo would be a career in itself just like the guy before me advises cut the rock and take tile and sheetrock at the same time

  • So if the original tile had just drywall behind it and there was no mold or moisture present as revealed, then why is it so necessary to put the cement board up instead of drywall again?

  • Excellent video! The host was so enthusiastic. After watching her I feel like I can do this too. I'll probably have to watch the video twenty more times but I'll get it. Thank you for the inspiration!

  • How are you not going to show what to do with the joint of the backer and drywall -_-

  • Great video, appreciate the effort that went into it. However you need to update your links, about half the stuff in the Products Used list is showing as "No longer for sale at Lowes".

  • I gave a dislike for the the cringe parts, thank you

  • The best video
    Super cool and well put together
    Thank you

  • I’m not a fan with painting the cement boards. Thinset attaches better to porous surfaces. Once the boards are painted, were is the adhesive strength? In the paint?

  • So do you use morter and mesh tape for the transition from backer board to drywall as well? They kinda skipped that..and should I primer the drywall before the morter is applied to the trasition so that I'm not applying it over old paint?

  • So cement backer board is going in place of the old drywall. I may be mistaken but wouldn’t the new tile shower wall be somewhat flimsy, even flex with enough light pressure?
