5 out of 5 stars Maybe I Liked It Because I Knew Nothing About Tiling Before Reading This Book?   October 25, 2008
paisleymonsoon (Tulsa, Oklahoma)
This is truly an amazing how-to book for tiling. There were so many things I'd not thought of concerning my many upcoming tiling projects. It covers how to demolish, prepare, and tile floors, walls, countertops, patios, fireplaces, and more. This book even tells how to make a shower stall from the ground up and repair a squeaky floor.


5 out of 5 stars Great "How To" Book   May 23, 2009

Great simple "how to" book with great instructions, simplistic designs and great pics. I have referenced this book many times while doing my own home repairs and remodeling.

This is a good book for people who want to start tiling or for people who have stated but would like to get more ideas, help or tricks.


3 out of 5 stars Nice pictures, lacks details   September 16, 2008
Joseph Geniec (Indiana, USA)
When I bought this book, I wanted to tile a countertop with porcelain. The book shows many visual examples of elaborate porcelain countertops in the opening pages. It lists the things you must consider when choosing tile for a project. So far, so good.

Sadly, the book only shows how to tile a certain type of red glazed ceramic countertop. Please show me how to do the rustic stone & porcelain countertops you put beautiful pictures of in the first chapter! This was a letdown.

The countertop section needs to be fleshed out about 3x the length that it is now, with many different styles & methods of trimming. Show people how to trim the countertop edges with different types of bullnose, wood, decorative pieces, v-cap trim, etc. Also show how to undermount sinks with quarter rounds of tile. (See Taunton's book, "Tiling Complete") These are the things people are thinking of when they want to tile a countertop, and the book just doesn't deliver.

I didn't spend much time looking at the floor & wall & ad-hoc project sections of the book. These may be adequate for most people's needs, but I'm not sure.

I dont remember buying this and cant even find it. But all other product lines were good from the home depot for the projects so i assume this one would be just as good.
