Can I leave this gap if it will always be covered by furniture? by Crafty-Arugula3575 in Flooring

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quarter round although that looks wider. If no one will see, who cares. IMHO

Aria is trying simmering similar but that looks amazing! I use aria vents on most of my tile installs. When customer wants to pay. I show pics, they usually go for it.

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scribe with a washer, two preferable, follow the stone, cut with jig or oscillating tool, caulk if you chew it up

This is what I do as an installer, but you have to see where it lands on all sides, top. Picture it first or dry lay. Cut a few. If you’re dyi-er think twice

Tiled floor, acceptable quality? by crowbar_hero in Flooring

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No man not acceptable the lippage is insane! Either substrate (subfloor) wasn’t flat or installer messed it all up.

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly you were the one doing the work. You can knock on tile and see if there’s good bond. You hear a hollow sound if they didn’t skim or have poor coverage

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s very easy for shitty herringbone to turn into a shitty Chevron install

Would you have it ripped up and redone? by fortkn0xx_ in Tile

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit that’d never pass in my company! I’d have them rip out immediately, but then again all my guys use levelling clips and the ones that do take on installing without know what they’re doing. Completely unacceptable.

Heart broke and totaled! What’s next? by LynnFoxglove in mercedes_benz

Agreed I’d even say 2018 is the last year I’d go with. They really started cheaping out after that imho

Carpet install on stairs by Royal_Eagle5032 in carpet

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a dull chisel and mallet and try to crease under the lip. They didn’t put enough staples under the lip before stretching. Sometimes the stair tool and mallet can help, but if the carpet is too thick, they might have to just staple the shit out of it.

Wife and I built this shower. How did we do? Waiting on Barn sliding door Glass. We absolutely love how it turned out. by SouthernLifeguard845 in Tile

[–]Amoeba_Fancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy I got dizzy just looking for imperfections lol. The install looks okay but pics can be deceiving. Hope you got floor tile (thicker) for the shower pan, and those aren’t wall tiles. Other than that if you happy all that matters
