One of the last things left in our kitchen remodel was tiling the backsplash, and instead of having a general contractor take care of it, we decided to watch some YouTube videos and do it ourselves.

We wanted to protect all our new cabinets, countertops, and appliances, so we simply covered everything with an old sheet and taped it all off, but left less than half an inch where the tile would meet the countertop - we didn't want the mortar, grout, and tile to dry on top of the tape, then when we went to pull it off, it would effect the tile placement. Next, we removed all light plates and made sure there wasn't anything on the drywall's surface and that it was smooth.

Measure out the total sq ft you intend to tile, this way you can know how many tiles and material you'll need. We purchased the following items...

Once everything is dried - typically takes 24hrs, remove the spacers and you're ready to apply the grout. Simply empty the grout into a bucket with the instructed amount of water, then use your Grout Mixer and power drill to stir it all together. Next, take your Grout Float and generously apply the grout over all the tiles, with a focus on getting it in the cracks and continually wiping away the excess on the surface of the tiles.

It's okay if the tiles look all messy, especially if you're using a dark colored grout. After you work your way across the tiles, where you initially started should be dried and ready to be wiped off with your Grout Float.

Often times people wonder what the difference is between caulk and sealant. In short, caulk has less movement capabilities and is not as well performing as sealant. There is a time and place for both caulk and sealant, but first the following steps need to be met.

Lastly, you want to make sure the area you're caulking is not too deep. Recommended joint design is no more than ½” depth. In order to achieve no more than ½” depth on your joint, you may need to insert backer rod to act as a “filler”. Backer rod provides many other benefits such as preventing three-sided adhesion and use of excess product. 

As you start to gun or caulk the product into your joint, make sure you're applying enough back pressure to the material as opposed to pulling or stretching the material which can cause voids in the cured product. Don't forget to take into consideration the weather conditions, it's crucial the product stays dry long enough to skim over – generally 6-12 hours.

After the caulk is installed in the joint, you want to “tool” the product to ensure sound adhesion of the material into the substrate. There are many ways to “tool” the product, such as using a caulking applicator tool, the tip of a spoon, or most simply your finger (not recommended by manufactures due to potential for contaminants).

​The main purpose for tooling the caulk/sealant is because you will eliminate any voids in the material that may have been caused by either the joint design or poor installation techniques as mention above. ​

Some of the most common workplace or job site injuries, which could include death, are caused by falling from an elevated height. As an employer, its their responsibility to create a work environment that prevents any falling off of overhead platforms, high up work stations, or even into holes that are in the floor or walls - which is not just limited to people, but their tools as well. 

Workers have a right to a safe workplace, which is why OSHA was created to help create and enforce laws that do just that. Employers are required to choose and purchase personalized protective equipment at no cost to the workers themselves, and also explain and highlight the features that the equipment offers to keep them safe.

There's a wide variety of different types of fall protection and safety equipment to choose from, below are some of the main items workers use.

Most commonly, a trowel is a small hand tool that is used for digging, or to smooth and apply material. Trowels can be used in jobs such as masonry, concrete, dry wall construction, or even when you're attempting to apply adhesives in flooring.
