3rd floor shower. What a pain!!
mine was on the 10th floor, parking garage, elevators, key pads, association rules, beach views, spring break bikini's,etc.
glad I charged good :thumbup:

 
looks good, not a fan of the 1/3 offset.
porcelain manufacturers need to step up and make flat tile.
I do see a good amount of non cupped and bowed 12x24.
I think it is all about pricing, these are $2.75/sq.ft porcelain,sure enough I have seen $18/sq.ft porcelain that is flat that can be stacked.

I avoid 1/3 offset, gives stair effect, this is same as floor 8" to the right of the first tile and repeat same two rows, random but uniform look.
Look at the floor picture


What are those spacers? and why are they sticking their tongues out at us?
regular + shape spacers, I just need one wing:laughing:

4000 sqft. Grinded the floor.. I used mapei ultra flex 2. 12x24 tile on a brick pattern. Mapei sanded grey grout. The job took 8 days to complete. Me and my group also did 1200 sqft carpet tile and 600 sqft VCT within the time period.

Nice work Ben! Huge change.

I like the pebble floor contrasting with the larger format rectified walls. Nature/rustic meets contemporary.

I just picked up similar materials for my own bath. Now just finding the time to do it...

Is that a Schluter metal trim used around the niche?
 
Yeah, used about 100 ft of Schluter or so on this job. Capped the base tile with it, and did all the vertical ends of the walls.
I'm running out of superlatives, That **** is ILL....beautiful work. :clap::clap::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Very awesome and precise work ethos. Why the bench in that location though? Looks kind of ackward with where the shower head is?
I'm definitely liking the schluter edging more these days. Gives a cleaner and less busy look!
Leg shaving bench?
 
just finished this project 2 weeks ago in Brandon, Florida.
was an old tub bath they wanted converted into a stand up shower.
it's an older home and they are re-doing it room by room.
I did the master bath shower last year. this is the hall bath.

12x24 on shower walls & main floor, 1x1 glass tile accent, made a
niche & corner shower seat. matching 2x2 on shower floor.
