Matt Sletten was working in the basement bathroom when I stopped in on my way home last night and I got to take a few photos as he set wall tiles in the shower. The first photo shows the bathroom with the first two 12” x 24'” tiles set on the Durock cement board walls. The second photo shows the back side of a tile as Matt prepares to stick it on the wall. He “butters” the back side of the tile with thin-set mortar and then “plops” a bunch more on as big dots. Finally he places the tile on the wall and “smushes” it into place using a straightedge as a guide…(technically speaking).
The last photo shows the shower wall with the first 13 tiles applied. The 12 x 24 tiles will run all the way to the ceiling. The off-set pattern and color should further enhance the “fun” nature of this shower.
