4.0 out of 5 stars Tiling - One Step at a Time, May 3, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Step-by-Step Tiling Projects (Better Homes & Gardens: Step by Step) (Paperback)

My first time tiling and this book definately takes you through step by step. Talks about tiling floors as well as walls and countertops. Mostly illustrations but done well enough to understand what each procedure entails. Packed with tips and experts' insights. I high recommend this book and "Setting Tile (Fine Homebuilding)" by Michael Byrne.

Solid advice on prepwork, layout, etc. It it a bit outdated in terms of styles and colors, but it is still a good reference guide when researching tile installation procedures.
