    Lower kitchen sink drain - on exterior wall, drill new hole below existing in king stud?

    Awesome forum. It's always very helpful. I'm helping out a neighbor with a minor kitchen refresh. They're looking to install a farmhouse sink. The existing drain is too high. Sink is on a 2x4 exterior wall, under window. We removed the drywall to get a better look. The existing drain goes...

    As for the tile on the shower wall/floor corner. Instead of a 2" x 24" strip, I thought of going this route Install the tile on the bathroom floor first, place vanity with top, and use it as a guide. This should let me know how high I can go with the 12x24 on the wall. At the drop down...

    Makes sense. Gonna try to hunt down ss amd plated brass at the supply house. I'm going to put together the floor and wall layout. Not sure how the floor tile will look again the wall. Since the wall is horizontal. Guess I'll their should be grout line every 12 inches. Thanks for the input.

    As for capillary break could aluminum be used? Does it have to be stainless steel?

    The thought was to put mosaic above the vanity top all the way to the ceiling. Use it was a back splash. We have a 4" x 60" piece of granite that was cut from the same slab as the vanity top. Also have a piece for the left side. Can't take a picture of the top. That sucker if heavy. Just...

    If the measurements don't change much, I'll have to keep the small strip at the bottom. Grout lines will push them up a little.

    Was thinking of putting mosaic in the niche. Might go as far as modifying the niche so grout line match it.. I knew by starting the first row in the shower it would lower the rest of the bathroom. Not going to rush it. Too so much time to get waterproofing done. Now will spend time figuring...

    The mosaic also comes in 12x24. I'm just debating weather to fill the vanity wall to the top, full mosaic or an accent band around the bathroom. If I go full mosaic, I'm going to order more. Original ideal was band. Bosses mind changed.

    Did a quick drawing. Not to scale but give a pretty good idea. I hope it looks close to this. I would like to have 3 full tiles on the wall. That means I'll have a 2" gap by the floor in the shower. I don't know how a 2" strip off the floor will look. I'm trying to figure out a solution...

    That may look like pools of water but its not. The floor was covered with layers of moving blankets. That water is from the top layer of TS that was installed on the back wall. . After it was install, I went over it with a sponge it wipe it. Don't have a good pictures. This will give an idea.

    Going to seal all seams tonight. What could be used as capillary break? Does it have to be edging profile? Will the capillary break determine the floor tile layout. Option A Option B Spacers came in.

    Still waiting for 150 to arrive. Installed wallseal on both 3' walls. Might install the back wall then go over all seams later. Question about tile blade. Did some searching and some recommend T3 Razor. What do you guys like? I picked up a used Dewald D24000 a few months ago. It came with...

    I'm taking this approach. Got 3 walls done but ran out of noblesealant 150. On the 5' wall, I made it overlap the 3' wall 2.25". Don't have to put a band in the corner. Hope the helps keep the build up down a little Ordered it from the same site I got the rest of the noble stuff. Now...

    Thanks for the props.... I'm dry fitting Wall Seal, look like its going to be tough wrapping the 3 walls in one shot. I'll have to put thin set on all 3 wall/6 feet high first, then press in wall seal. Then overlap with another row of wall seal above that. Or do the one wall top to bottom...

    Was able to dig up some pictures. Didn't take any with board and screws finally screwed down. Since durock is 36" wide, it lays on 2x4 stack, were the green board and durock meet. A lot more durock screws were used before covering them with thin set. I used alkali mesh tape and thinset...
