I do thing a bit differently, I pret cut my first run. But this a great video. Much respect, I been professionally installing for 7 years.

Been remodeling for years now. I've always refused to take the time needed for a herringbone pattern install. Finally couldn't talk my way out of it to a customer. Turned to this video for advice and came out great. Takes much longer, but now I'm not afraid of it ha ha.

Jeff is so awesome. With my husband and I owning our own reno/remodel home improvement business his videos are so helpful. Thanks Jeff you are the man!!

Lots of great tips that are well explained - most videos rush through everything and leave you with more questions than answers. I love your thorough approach and your positively. The bathroom is looking amazing too 😀

Amazing video and exactly what I needed! The tile is the same size as mine and this was by far the best tutorial! I learned so much

Always thoroughly explained for beginners like me. Thank you very much.... I love all of your videos!

I love that you explain the why behind your method it’s not just “because this is how it’s always done”

"The fact that this is going to work is crazy" Intense process and you got really lucky that the spacing worked out perfectly! As usual, beautiful finished product.

We just followed this tutorial and completed our first project in our first home!! I’m a super fan now!

Absolutely love all of your videos probably one of the best teachers on earth and your voice is very soothing.

So cool to watch, makes me think I can do it all. Great tips and thorough explanation!

Thanks again for the excellent education. I'm planning on doing a kitchen herringbone backsplash so I'll be re-visiting this video many times.

That mirror & colour of the tile go together like peas & carrots👍🏻 Great job on the install; really nice when the size lines up perfectly when doing tile....especially a pattern like this. Luck, Nah, your THAT GOOD 😎 My Mom watched this w/ me, now she wants me to install something similar in her house (she’s very hard to impress; so great job).....hooray for me😅 Cheers✌🏼

Nice job... unlike others commenting ... considering the cost of the tiles skipping those five tiles behind a mirror that NO ONE will ever see was a great cost cutting idea for people who watch this channel for renovation tips and tricks. Great job!!

Matt Barnard , the new owner sees it and we all see it. I also didn’t like his huge square hole for a 1/4 wide wire. Put a quick box on it and face plate. That’s an easy place for bugs to come in and out of. Between the missing tile, the offset tile by 2” and the hole, it doesn’t leave much for a mirror change.

Never knew you could actually wash away grout dye. Thanks for the tip, Sir.

Mirror matches great with the tile!

That came out amazing!

It is beautifully done. I probably will never do anything like this now but we had eight kids and dyi all the time!!!!!!!! I want to tackle some kind of project however probably redoing a table in epoxy. I love your educational videos. I learned and am learning so very much thank you. I have granite counter near stove and the heat has cracked the stone and am trying to figure out how to repair it! that is how I came to find you on u tube lol

Home RenoVision DIY I live in the north central climate zone. In the US in Kentucky. I have a brick home built in the 60s with asphalt board sheathing behind it.

Hi Matt, first you need vapor barrier on the exterior walls. it has nothing to do with the shower itself. Secondly the insulation that is most common and affordable is the fiberglass batt. simply but the same thickness batts as the wall studs will allow. EG 2x4 framing r12 2x6 framing r 20/. Cheers!

Hey Jeff, I'm loving this channel. I found it a few months ago, coincidentally right before I moved to a house that needed a fair bit of renos. I learned so much from your videos and was able to do lots of drywall work, painting, and some moderate plumbing and electrical work myself. If I had a suggestion for a video, it would be how to install a fiberglass tub and surround. There really isn't much on KZread about that. The videos I found are either too short and gloss over everything, they're poor quality, or it's just a guy talking while holding the camera and not showing any actual work. Nothing out there gave me the confidence to do the job myself. I know fiberglass surrounds aren't as sexy as tile surrounds, but they're still a practical option for many home owners. Your videos are full of details and tips that matter when DIY folks encounter problems taking on new projects. Thanks again!

Thank you, teacher :)

Love that tile and the finished look. Burning question was whether you had enough tile to have filled in the entire space?? Also my tidbit is that if your ceiling is textured, it may not be painted so do NOT get grout on the ceiling or the texture will wipe right off when you try to clean it up! Ask me how I know.

Looks awesome

Awesome Channel!

I like this a lot! I wonder if there has been a study to show which way ismore cost efficient to make the mirror less foggy... The hair dryer, the heater, or "fuggetaboutit" method. Haha! Love your content! 😇😎

Didn't like the tile at first when you showed us the layout but the full finish effect is quite nice. The live edge wood counter and stone sink makes the whole wall really pop.

Nice thanks for the idea 💡

2 years later, know, but would by chance recall where this tile is from??? Absolutely love it

Awesome Jeff great work. I was not a fan of herringbone. I am now👍

I see you with that little 2 sided tape trick at the end. Very nice

Nice job!

Hi Jeff you the master brother 🎼🎶🎺🌅🎉👍

I did herringbone textured plank tile in my basement main floor. Some places I can tell the grout line is a little smaller than 1/8. Should I use sanded grout or unsanded? Which brand do you recommend as well? I did buy Tec Accucolor Sanded grout and some Tec boost but second guessing myself as this is the first time tiling and grouting. Thanks for all the help!

Great job buddy, I'm a tile setter for 25 years and I never set a herringbone pattern, that really looks difficult, I set a bunch of pinwheel patterns but never a herringbone

hey, I really like your channel and I would like if you could make a video with the construction of a wooden staircase for the attic,thanks

He's showing how to do it, That's not easy, filming, talking, explaining and installing all at the same time. It's easy to lose track. Nice job Jeff. You lucked out with the width of that wall.

Great job. Only thing I will say, the mirror covers most of the wall, and covers most the herringbone layout.

Loved the video. Like I mentioned before, loving the whole look of the bathroom. I want to use mirror warming system as well but your link to Amazon doesn't seem to be working right. Please let me know. I want to make sure the sale goes through you so you get credit for the sale.

I always set out on the floor first..doing all my cuts ...then transfer that to the wall. Works everytime and you don't have adhesive skinning up whilst you're faffing about with the smaller cuts. I also stopped using synthetic materials as they fail to hold some tiles...Porcelain, Travertine, etc.

Awesome sause.

That was actually not bad at all ... I think I will stash that away for when I build out my basement bathroom someday! Do you have a video on how you got the live counter in? I'd love to do something like that later .... after 10 minutes, I found it LOL.

NO, he went to visually centered instead of actual center.

You might want to apply your grout a little dryer. You end up with small voids caused by air pockets due to your grout being to wet. As you spread your grout, you're pushing the moisture out of it, making it spread easier. The wetter the grout, the more air pockets you'll have.

The comment is not directed to me but Thank you for sharing your knowledge

This video is great, but I was wondering, if you have to use subway tiles in a herringbone pattern for a backsplash and wall, do you have to care about the first pattern row to be levelled horizontally in any way? In other words, do you have to care about the countertop not being levelled? I’d like to do this in L shaped kitchen and there is almost 1/4 inch difference between both ends. You have a very good video on how to start a brick pattern with subway tiles from a countertop, but what about a Herringbone pattern. Thanks!

While watching the renovate a bathroom A to Z i see that you are using an edge guard at the edge of the tile that meets the painted wall, I'd like more info on the transition from tile to painted wall. should we buy a bull nose tile or are there other options to make it a profesional look? Love the channel and that you actually gave me a number to call if I really get stuck. Thanks in advance.

How would you handle a herringbone pattern that continues around a corner? I've seen some people mirror the tiles on the adjacent walls and try to make it look like the tile wraps around. Thoughts? Thanks! :)
