Thanks for the great video!I love Schluter products as they've given me the confidence to tackle my home projects. Question, would I be able to use the profiles where the floor meets the walls in a very wet environment i.e. a shower? Thx!

[HomeRepairTutor]

Great video, is there a general rule of thumb for how to choose the profile based on tile thickness? Also, with the cove profile is there a need to factor in expansion and contraction? Thanks for mentioning the TCNA recommendation for 95 to 100% coverage in wet areas!

I recently have started using schluter products n I truly love them all from the prefabed pan in which I used to poor mine n try to get proper slope to the membranes they provide to the in floor heat systems... just all of it

5:27 keep in mind the cove didn’t have thinset under it either.. I also see why the cove part touching the floor tile really needs to be sealed with silicone bc water would find it’s way right under that

I am going to tackle a shower renovation at home using the Schluter products. I have a few questions though. I was thinking of using profiles in the corner walls and the areas where the shower floor meets the shower wall tiles. Would using the Dilex AHK be acceptable to use inside the shower corners?

My schluter around my recent installed niche is peeling off!! What can I do to fix it?

[luzalturo]

Hello. I have people working at home with kErdi. They are installing tile and mosaic. This mosaic is tinner than tile, how they should instal. They think that is impossible Thank so much

[amandahatridge]

Do you have any installation videos where it's used between tile and a wood floor? Do you cut the tounge off the wood plank? Please help!

[BKMDano]

I haven't found any at daltile that are deep enough to cover the depth of the tile and the thin set

[joshdickson]

Is this an acceptable way to install wall tile? Couldnt be more then 50% coverage there

[mrlariata]

Fyi.. I can never find that little corner button in the big box stores orange or blue. Metal trim is nice but I just miter my cuts.

[derekrubinoff]

What is the name of the wainscot top profile?

[robantonio]

Hi Schluter team, you're showing installation over Kerdi Board screws and washers that haven't been waterproofed with thinset and Kerdi Band, is this now acceptable practice or an oversight?

[nunyabisnis]

Well this is all pretty good except you didn't show the return profile or how a guy might use your product on a half wall whear the tile meets drywall or a shower dam with inside and outside corner's or around a shower wall cubby built in shower Cady !

[zlatkozivkovic]

so how do you seal the gaps in the inside corners?

[neelypeterson]

This video showed you applying tile by back buttering the tile and then pressing it on to the ditra on the wall. The ditra has no thinset on it! I thought you were supposed to surface ditra with unmodified thinset prior to tiling.

[johnharvison]

Great and all, but you didn't actually give any tips on what to do when putting schluter profiles on existing uneven surfaces.

[jonathanbell]

You want to back butter any size tile, not just large format.

Should be titled Schluter Profile. Showing the expansion profile type briefly enabled you to use the plural, profiles? What's the name for the protective strip placed between my mitered edge? What is the name of the strips themselves, without company name, tile edging? Metal strip? None of those bring up the right thing and using name Schluter just brings up bullnose this and rondec that mixed with some jolly profile system. Gotta go to a special school just to learn a dictionary of terminology for some little metal strips? What do i ask the store clerk for? Dont tell me schluter, clerk dont know that one. Not tile edge trim either, they try to sell me tile pieces not the metal strips i search

[barbaraforest-beriso]

You spent a majority of the time showing how to butter tiles and almost nothing on the actual profiles. Then, you do a profile on the top of that tile and the end sticks out! This is a completely useless video...
