I'm about to try to put in a tile backsplash for the first time. Wish me luck.
ishavedmyballsforthis3
Good luck!
NotGonnaSugarCoat
Nice work.
Lamontiego
Pay your taxes!
Jacogs
Beautiful tiling is an art form!
OriginalPoseur
But what if they buy a bigger tv??
ishavedmyballsforthis3
I guess I would have to tear it down and rebuild it with more room
OriginalPoseur
Just thought how that'd be a win win for you. More work. More money. Seriously though, these are nice. Good on ya.
theRAAd
What if they want to plug something into the tv?

You but a mount that moves out

Thank you for putting a grout joint centered on the stove, where it belongs! Incidentally, what country/state? My design/build co needs you
ishavedmyballsforthis3
Thank you, I'm in Portland OR USA

Can you message me your company contact info? I'm in Portland and need some tile work.

In all seriousness. What state are you in? I work in real estate and I'm always looking for skilled people.

Why do people keep putting tvs over fireplaces? It's an awful location for your neck, unless you have a bar top in that room
GansoEstaMuerto
If you've got a big house, with a big room, then you won't be looking up.
BazookaBoh
My family room is 20 x 16 and over a fireplace would be too high from the opposite side of the room. That's a decent sized room.
GansoEstaMuerto
Yeah. I've got one of those open floor plans. Kitchen, living room, dining room is just one giant space. So over the fireplace is no prob
BazookaBoh
It can work that way. Like, if I had a bar in my basement I'd do over a fireplace. Or like a general mancave. Just not my regular chillspot
GansoEstaMuerto
I have bars in my basement. But they are to keep the hookers from leaving. I'd never give them a TV to watch. But to each their own I guess.
redskins366
I've got a question if liquid gets spilled on wood flooring is the a chance it could seep in between the boareds?
GranularCashew
I worked tile in Portland for about a year! What's your company name?
ishavedmyballsforthis3
It used to be called BSTL and I would tell people that it stood for basic stone tile and laminate but it really means balls stuck to leg
ishavedmyballsforthis3
Now it's just my last name Kravets construction LLC
GranularCashew
Awesome! I worked for Hawthorne tile for a while, well I may need a backsplash here soon and I'm in Beaverton, I may hit you up

No GFI on a counter outlet? That's a paddlin'

Only has to be GFCI if water is within 3 feet.

I also have a boring 9-5 job, it's driving me insane. I just can't handle the stupidity in people anymore. Thinking of taking up carpentry.

Beautiful work man. Where are you located? Do you do natural stone too?
ishavedmyballsforthis3
Portland OR and no.
foxhound01091983
Love doing tile work remember to pull straight trowel lines vinegar helps with grout hazing on a final wash down watch out for strawberries
everythingisadildoifyourbraveenough
Strawberrys?
GFYandyourstupidrequirements
Very ouch. Much hurt.
OtterAvalanche
Theyre the fucking worst. Got them a couple times when i started tiling
foxhound01091983
From rubbing down wet grout lines with your fingers and it rubs your fingers tips raw it eats away a spot then you have a strawberry painful
foxhound01091983
Contour the lines if you will the sand in the grout will tear your fingers up sponges help contour some but fingers shape well
SlippingTheBougie
Bro, he's got this
foxhound01091983
He sure does

Wait what's that in English lay?? Important. Bout to tile. Flick a pm if bored. Need tipsss

I volunteered doing tile to learn the trade them saved up money and got all the tools
awildcharmander
Literally sacrifice 100% of your free time to do both the 9-5 and your dream job at the same time, until your dream job can sustain you

You stop telling yourself "someday I'm going to..." and you do it.

I can't help but wonder how long it will before that tv melts off the wall from poor circulation.
Kodaxmax
how do you plug in the SEGA Mega drive without rear access!
byohzzrd
Older plasmas and early LCD might have had issues. But really anything made in the last 10 years should be fine.
gaugetx
Heh, remeber the old Vizio plasmas? You could damn near cook on it.
Jessitca
We still use ours. Source of heat in the winter ????
TheBigBadBonerBiter
My concern would be wanting a TV that's literally any other size. Smaller ones might look goofy and bigger ones won't fit.
Grant0
With an extendable mount a bigger TV could just sit proud of the wall a bit. Doesn't look like the type of place that'd ever go smaller ;)
commoncomment
As an electrical engineer who also does AV, you won't see any major problems before you replace it for an upgrade anyway.
WookieWookieWookie
That would be my fear. How do I find a tv with the exact same dimension?
blkbox
Pretty sure modern TVs don't dissipate enough to be an issue.
SilverSwearsalot
Those bastards get suprisingly hot
vulturedoors
Ours is right next to the house thermostat. Screws it up hy about 8 degrees F.
Matayoman
That tv generates practically zero heat. I have the same tv, its pretty amazing.

.... that fireplace generates practically zero heat. I have the same fireplace, its pretty amazing.
Soylencer
It's okay, it's only a Samsung.
Caamaasi
I see your point, though the ventilation I would worry about less than the fireplace directly under it.
lukewarmbookworm
Looks like there's two inches of space at the bottom. How much do you normally need to ventilate it properly?
RandomIsotope
Personally, I need a lot of space to vent properly.
mentalcaries
werdCAsquared
Two inches is about all your need for any mount ( Ķ”Ā° ĶŹ Ķ”Ā°)
mentalcaries
MisterSausage
You're probably right, but tiles do run cool and they may even dissipate some of the heat.
SpartanOwl417
I can't help but wonder what happens when they want a bigger tv.
koninkaulus
They buy it and put in the corner like the rest of the world. Or, they build a new fireplace like proper pc master racers should.
Soylencer
witheredspoon
or add a sound bar
nickerification
worst case scenario they can just buy a mount that extends outward

Hey, I've got an idea. Let's build our entire house around an item that we'll only want to keep for 5 years!
dirtbikerdan
Op will get paid to redo it then. That's a win.
davebeastly
Don't know why people put their TVs so high up. Looks ridiculously uncomfortable.
IstoppedlikingmyusernameSoIchangedIt
There are mounts that pull out and down
QuazMasta
I did it once, never again. When you realize it's more comfortable to stand and watch TV, you realize the mistake you've made.
missleadinginiformation
This concept makes me irrational. Let's get a huge 70 inch tv but we will put it above a fireplace and sit 20 feet away. It defeats the
missleadinginiformation
the purpose of having a big TV. I sit like 6-7 feet from my 50 inch because it's more engulfing and cinematic.
Micaam
It doesn't defeat the purpose if the purpose of the big TV is to compensate for a longer distance, though. Depends on the setup of the room.

AlexSkullUterna
The stairs are for those small windows.
thedoughnutsayshello
To be fair, the staircase does look sturdy.
Ceracuse
But why
lacunae8
Because the stairs are awaiting installation and currently just leaning nearby? Cause no one would actually fuck this up... I hope.
Ceracuse
Okay that makes more sense, hope it's not just leaning there though.. huge safety hazard

I'd normally agree, but that's not a common brick or stair style, so probably not.
DanielleCabrera
Well it isn't America. We favor straight, wide staircases that actually serve a purpose. The whole spiral thing is def European.
DanOrtega
Or Mexico...
thiscannotpossiblygowrong
Technically speaking, you could name any country on the planet and be right. If it's >50% Russia alone, Russia+other country is also >50%
DanOrtega
Well, there is a facebook group called "builders that love Escher". Most photos are from Mexico...

liliantbn
No, l would bet it is USA, if not Canada.
liliantbn
Changed my mind, bet it's Sweden or Norway.
WookieWookieWookie
How does that happen??
NoUserNameIsTaken
It's shown in the process of being removed or installed
FsImgur
We'll never know for sure. A true paradox.
CheapBeerAndBadDecisions
I'm guessing removed as it looks like the doorways have been converted to windows and you can see on the brick where it used to be bolted on
NoUserNameIsTaken
To me it looks like they added one more floor. Windows at fire escape are normal
