EASY PUSH BUTTON SHOWER

Hey students!

Last year, I worked for a client who was getting older and having a tough time getting over the tub and into his shower. I managed to convert his tub into a walk-in shower in just 3 DAYS (check out my 3 Day Shower Course here!). Along with the walk-in shower, we wanted to keep his shower faucet system super simple and efficient. That’s where the Grohe Push Button Shower Faucet came in!

I was so impressed with this faucet. Installing it and setting it up for my client was very easy, and I was really happy to make his showering as effortless as a push of a button. He was recovering from a stroke at the time, and it was incredibly important to make showering a simple process for him to complete on his own.

In this video, I show you how I installed this Grohe Push Button Shower Faucet. {FYI: This faucet has a normal shower head and a hand-held}

HOW TO REFINISH AN OLD CAST IRON TUB

Hey students!

Old cast iron tubs are… OLD. And a lot of them show their age. They discolor, chip, and generally look pretty worn the older they are. I have torn out a lot of cast iron tubs in my bathroom remodeling career, and I’m here to tell you DON’T DO IT. They don’t make tubs like they used to, and these cast iron tubs are rock solid and feel much more substantial than those new acrylic ones.

There is an affordable, DIY way to fix your dingy cast iron bathtub. It’s called Ekopel (and no, this is NOT sponsored). It’s a complete tub refinishing kit you can order off of Amazon, and it seriously makes your cast iron tub look BRAND SPANKING NEW. I recently used it to finish a cast iron tub I tore out of an client’s home, and I was incredibly pleased with the results (and so was my wife!).

This video details exactly how I refinished the tub and what products I used to get the best results.

To begin, make sure your tub is clean and the room is warm. The epoxy finish won’t be able to adhere properly in cold temperatures. Here I am next to a very nasty cast iron tub with the tub refinishing kit below.

Next up is sanding your tub to remove any flakes and chips, and then giving it a good cleaning scrub. The sanding also helps with the application of the epoxy finish.

I then scraped off any existing silicone on the tub, and used Bondo to fill in all the chips and dents.

The trick is to pour the finish; don’t brush it on. Once the epoxy covers the walls of the tub, you can definitely manipulate it with a foam roller. But, let gravity do most of the work. A heating gun is crucial, as well, to get rid of any air pockets and pinholes. Don’t use a hair dryer. The air movement will cause all dust and particles to kick up and stick in your epoxy finish.

{Note: I’ve got to emphasize how much dust and debris is your enemy when you apply the epoxy finish. Make sure everything is as clean as possible.}

Here’s the before…

CONCRETE REMOVAL FOR A BASEMENT BATHROOM

Hey students!

The latest project I’ve been working on has been constructing a basement bathroom (literally, from the ground up).

One of the first crucial steps I had to take to build this bathroom was busting up some very old, very hard concrete flooring. Why? I needed to make some serious space for the plumbing, insulation, heated flooring, and to make sure the floor was perfectly level to build on. One of the most important things to me was keeping everything level. That meant I didn’t want to have a slight step up into the bathroom space (tripping hazard, no thanks). This was all the more reason for me to bust up this concrete.

I’m building a curbless shower in this basement, and luckily there are some concrete removal tips & tricks I can let you in on, but first…

If you are thinking of building a basement bathroom in your home, I would encourage you to not only watch this video, but to also enroll in my DIY Geek Membership, where you would have access to ALL of my online bathroom remodeling courses AND early access to the Basement Bathroom Course I’m working on in real time.

The first step before starting your concrete removal is finding the perfect location for your basement bathroom. Find your existing waste stack and build from there.

Once I established my bathroom area, I began by measuring out the size of the bathroom (in this case, it is 4x8) and marking it on the concrete floor. I used my foam insulation board to trace my space easily.

Once I outlined my space, I was ready to cut. I got my electric concrete saw (plus a small water pump to keep the dust down) and got to cutting. Pro tip: Be sure to wear your safety gear (face mask, glasses, and ear protection!).

After cutting, I went to jack hammering the concrete. This was much more difficult than I thought it was going to be. Why? The house is old, which means the concrete is old… and very, very solid. Take your time and be patient. I’m an animal and kept going until I was finished— took me an hour. Haha! Pro tip: Keep wearing your safety gear (glasses, ear protection!).

Next up is the not-so-fun and very arduous task of removing all the broken up concrete.

Once I had all of the debris out of there, I was able to examine the existing plumbing and come up with a new plumbing plan for the bathroom I was going to build.

HOW TO TILE AROUND A ONE PIECE FIBERGLASS TUB SHOWER SURROUND

Hey students!

Fiberglass, one-piece tub shower surrounds are incredibly affordable, and very common in a lot of homes. Some may think they aren't "fancy" enough, but I have a great (and easy!) way to make them look high-end.

Let’s start off with the basics. Exactly what is a fiberglass tub and shower? Fiberglass reinforced plastic is made from layers of minuscule strings of interwoven glass, heated together. That is then molded, shaped, and sprayed with a resin gel coat. It's one of the most affordable materials for tubs and one of the easiest to install.

So, this is a great option for DIYers who are wanting to avoid a ton of tile work and save some serious cash.

In this video, I show you, from start to finish, how to tile around the top and sides of a fiberglass one-piece tub and shower surround.

First things first: LAYOUT. I’m using your run-of-the-mill, white subway tile you can get at Home Depot at a very reasonable price. I want to make sure everything is nice and straight. One of the first things you have to pay attention to is making sure your shower (and therefore your tile) is LEVEL. Get that level laser out!

You’re gonna want to start your tile work on your back wall first. Let’s get out my FAVORITE thinset and start burning it into the substrate.

I love using these horseshoe shims to make sure my grout lines are the right size, and to keep my tiles level.

When I tiled the sides, I made sure to extend a nice bullnose tile all the way down the edge of the fiberglass surround. Why? It is incredibly important to make sure you waterproof and tile this area because that is where we see the MOST drywall deterioration due to high water exposure. So, protect your work and your bathroom walls and do this.

It was really difficult to get an “after shot” of this bathroom because it was oddly shaped. I will say it made the unit look incredibly solid and more expensive. The fact that the walls above and around the unit were waterproofed and tiled made my customer extremely happy.

HOW TO INSTALL A SHOWER PAN

Hey students!

My most requested remodeling project these days is how to install a shower pan when converting from a tub to walk-in shower… and for good reason. Why? It’s in HIGH DEMAND (hello, aging Baby Boomers). It’s also not as costly as an all tiled walk-in shower, making it even more appealing to those who need a walk-in shower.

If I was a newer contractor starting in this business, this type of project is all I would be focusing on. You get in and out of a client’s home quickly. It makes for an easy work week. Plus, it’s really not that hard to do.

This kind of project is such a simple way to make good money if you are into remodeling bathrooms.

What’s even better is I already have a course {3 Day Tile Course} detailing how to successfully build a walk-in shower using a premade shower pan.

This video cuts straight to the point installing a shower pan when you are going from a tub to a walk-in shower. I go over the drain installation…

… to patching the subfloor underneath…

 
 

…laying down the plastic vapor barrier and mortar to keep that pan dry and in place…

…to setting the shower pan and connecting the plumbing.

HOW TO INSTALL FLOATING LAMINATE FLOORING

Hey students!

Do you have wall-to-wall carpet you want to replace? Or tired, old wood floors that need to be refinished but you do not have the time, energy, and patience to complete?

Laminate flooring is a great solution to your flooring problems. It is lower in cost when compared to other flooring options (i.e. luxury vinyl plank flooring and hardwood flooring), and it’s installation is easy enough for you to do on your own.

The best part about laminate flooring? The products have become so well made and developed, a lot of them look like real hardwood floors (for a FRACTION of the cost!). The laminate flooring I’m installing in this video was $2.99/sqft. I had about 900 sqft I needed to cover, which brought me to about $2,700 in the flooring material.

Since this is a home remodeling project I’m very familiar with doing (I’ve installed too many to recall), I have some helpful methods and tools I wanted to share with you to make your laminate flooring installation go fast and easy.

One of my biggest tips is acclimating the laminate flooring before installing it. Make sure you get the laminate flooring sitting at the job site for at least a week before starting the installation so it can properly adjust to the current temperature and humidity levels of the home. I can’t tell you how many times I got bit in the ass with hurrying this part along. The laminate flooring can shift and move when adjusting to temps, and you want to avoid that so your freshly installed floor doesn’t buckle or move around on you.

Another tip is to install a vapor barrier underneath the laminate flooring. This adds a bit of softness to your floors, but more importantly, it eliminates any moisture that comes up from beneath the floors (like the moisture in your basement). This step is especially crucial if you are installing laminate flooring over concrete.

 
installing floating laminate flooring DIY home improvement bathroom remodeling teacher vapor barrier
 

A major problem a lot of DIYers run into when installing laminate flooring is the flooring layout. I go over some methods and tips on how to best install your flooring (i.e. the direction of the flooring, where to start when the room is not a simple square/rectangle shape, etc.).

 
installing floating laminate flooring DIY home improvement bathroom remodeling teacher layout pattern
 

There is a ton of information packed into this video that will definitely help you out with your own laminate flooring project, from my favorite flooring tools to tile and door transitions to filling in gaps in the subfloor.

You can go from this {dark & dingy}…

HOW TO FRAME A CURBLESS SHOWER

Hey students!

CURBLESS WALK-IN SHOWERS ARE THE PINNACLE OF BATHROOM LUXURY… AND YOU DESERVE TO HAVE THAT.

If you are remodeling your bathroom and you have the option of building of walk-in shower, making it curbless will be aesthetically pleasing and a highly practical choice. When we get much older (hopefully we all do!), stepping over tubs or curbs can be a risky challenge. Stumbles and falls increase with age. Because of this, it’s easy to justify a gorgeous curbless shower in your home! 😄

What’s even better is that you can install your own curbless shower with my help. I have a dedicated course {The Ultimate Curbless Shower Course} that contains over 100 AD FREE VIDEOS, written instructions, favorite curbless shower systems I like to use, checklists, guides, and more to assist you in your bathroom remodel. You won’t need outside contractors who are inconsistent and unreliable. You can get it done yourself.

In this video, I go over the fundamental aspects of building the frame work for a curbless shower.

One point I go over is that most of the curbless shower systems out there require you to get the plywood even with the top of the joist.

I like to ensure the framework is reinforced to keep the shower floor level, strong, and secure. No tile movement or shifting!

I address how I go around my vent stack, and demonstrate my method of installing the plywood to maintain levelness.

HOW TO INSTALL WATERPROOF LAMINATE FLOORING

Hey students!

It's happening whether you like it or not… 😄 Laminate flooring is taking over!

You know I LOVE tile, and I can't believe I'm saying it… but these waterproof laminate flooring systems are awesome! 💥 Slip resistant, softer feel on the feet, & definitely a lot warmer than tile (unless you have heated flooring, of course 😊). The fact that it is a fraction of the cost of real tile AND it’s easier to install also helps sway many homeowners into buying it.

In this video, I demonstrate how to install SmartCore Waterproof Laminate Flooring.

Just to give you a quick rundown, I talk about laminate flooring versus tile flooring, along with all the tools you will need to install the laminate flooring.

I also go over the layout pattern and how to cut the laminate.

I share my cutting trick for the laminate around a door jamb, and the best tips on how to click the laminate flooring together.

Finally, I discuss the door transition and sealing that gap between the shower base and new flooring.

HOW TO ESTIMATE A BATHROOM REMODEL-TIME AND LABOR

Hey students!

Time is money, and money is time. I’m a firm believer in that saying. And because of that, I value my time a great deal, and I hope you do the same for yourself.

When I go to look at a potential job, I examine the full scope of the project, and the amount of time it will take me to achieve the results I want to achieve. I also take into account the amount of labor and strength it will require me to get the job done. Let’s be real… our physicality will only get us so far for so long. In my opinion, all contractors need to be compensated for putting their body and health in risky situations.

For those of you wanting to get into the remodeling business as a main profession, this video will be a huge help when it comes to giving estimates to customers. It’s also just interesting to see how and why contractors price projects the way they do.

In this video, I evaluate my client’s bathroom, and give you an idea of the amount of time and labor that will go into the remodel.

To give you a quick video run down, one of the first things I check out is the amount of demo that will be required. How hard will it be to remove the flooring and existing tile? How much garbage am I going to be hauling out of there?

 
demo estimate time labor bathroom remodeling teacher DIY
 

You also need to pay close attention to any odd configurations in the space. In this bathroom, the sink had a funky layout that could be hiding potential issues that may affect the budget.

Another thing I consider is the time and work I will be spending on adding a new vent fan to the bathroom. Most times, these bathrooms have a terrible venting system, and I usually have to construct a better method of venting that bathroom.

 
vent fan estimate time labor bathroom remodeling teacher DIY home improvement
 

Lastly, I always pay attention to the odd electrical outlet placement. This lets me know that I will more than likely need to change some of the electrical components of the bathroom, which adds more work to the overall project.

HOW TO REPAIR THE FRAMING IN A BATHROOM REMODEL

Hey students!

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: when you are remodeling your bathroom, your best plan of action is to gut it down to the studs so you can see what is going on with the plumbing, electric, and FRAMING. This is definitely a must in an older bathroom/home.

Time and water can do extensive damage to existing framing in the bathroom space. Plus, you don’t know what the previous contractor did to that bathroom framing to make things work (like notching a chunk out of the floor framing to make the plumbing run right).

If you are laying down thousands of dollars worth of waterproofing, tile, and fixtures in a bathroom, you best believe you want to have a solid, LEVEL foundation. Otherwise, you might just be throwing your money away.

I know this can be an overwhelming process, and I am here to help guide you through it.

In this video, I go over the best way to evaluate your old framing, how to set a new ledger board, and I also explain exactly what a load bearing wall is, as well as balloon framing.

 
load bearing wall repair framing bathroom remodeling teacher DIY
 

I’ll also show you how to sister a new joist, and go over the common obstructions you might run into when adding new framing.

 
sistering joist framing repair bathroom remodeling teacher DIY
 

You’ll see me add new plywood to the space, and I explain why I like OSB Plywood the best. I’ll also show you a common framing issue at a bathroom door entrance and how I overcome it.

 
plywood flooring framing repair bathroom remodeling teacher DIY
 

I even throw in a spray foam adhesive disaster at the end to keep it real. 😄

HOW TO MOVE PLUMBING IN A BATHROOM

Hey students!

How many of you would change the layout of your existing bathroom if you could? And how many of you are too scared to do it because of moving the existing plumbing?

I know I have felt that way MANY times when I’ve remodeled my own bathrooms. I felt it this past summer when I remodeled the bathroom in my rental/flip house. I HATED the layout of that bathroom, and I knew it needed to change.

The plumbing aspect is overwhelming at first. At least it definitely was for me. But, I was determined to learn. I acquired all of my knowledge and techniques from other plumbers who have been kind enough to teach me, and also by studying up on the subject online and in books, and from my professional plumbers who follow me. I still have A LOT to learn, but I have come a long way.

That being said, I wanted to share this video with you to help you with the plumbing in your own bathroom remodeling project. I show you how I remove the old plumbing stack.

Then, I go over my new connection plan to the existing terracotta plumbing.

I show you how I installed the toilet, sink, and bathtub plumbing.

And let’s not forget venting the stack! I definitely show you how to do that.

HOW TO INSTALL A FIBERGLASS SHOWER

Hey students!

I do not take on too many projects that do not involve custom tile work. However, I made an exception with this project.

The client needed a bathroom remodel, but also had a tight budget. Foregoing custom tile work and installing a fiberglass shower will achieve this goal. I took this job to show you guys how much money and time you can save by doing fiberglass instead of custom tile.

In this video, I installed a Clarion Fiberglass Shower unit, and I was very impressed with how it was made and how it all turned out.

This particular fiberglass shower was a walk-in shower that was made up of 4 parts, making it super easy to take apart to get inside your house.

After going over some framing tips, the drain pipe placement, and connecting the drain to the shower, I set the shower pan in place with mortar.

I also go over some important details you need to know when installing the walls of the unit, plus grab bars and proper caulking.

Basically, at the end of the day, you can have a shower fully installed and finished.

DEMOLISHING AN OLD BATHROOM I BUILT

Hey students!

I despise demo days. Popular TV shows have always made demo days seem fun and exciting, but I think it’s just an insane amount of hard work and heavy lifting.

This past summer I had to demo an old bathroom I had installed years ago. This bathroom was in my rental property I was fixing up to sell. Since it was a rental, the entire house had taken a severe beating from tenant use.

Because I had installed this bathroom years ago, I knew I needed to completely gut it to check out and fix up all the plumbing and electrical. To be totally honest, I knew I had done a few incorrect things when I fixed it up a long time ago, and I wanted to make that right for potential buyers.

Demoing isn’t about going into a space and just going nuts and destroying everything you see. In order to be fast and efficient, you need to be methodical in your approach to gutting a bathroom.

In this video, I demonstrate how I demo an entire bathroom, give you some tips and tricks on doing demo work, and share the importance of exposing every inch of space you are planning on remodeling.

In this particular bathroom, I began by removing fixtures…

…then the glass from the knee wall…

 
tile removal how to demo an old bathroom bathroom remodeling teacher DIY
 

and then the tiled tub surround.

From that point, I make my way through the entire bathroom, gutting it down and baring studs and all to the light of day.

BEST REMODELING TIPS OF 2022

Hey students!

I may be a little late with the 2022 recap, but hey, better late than never!

In this video, I highlight my best tips and tricks from 2022. The best part is these tips encompass ALL DIFFERENT KINDS of remodeling.

One of my most popular videos was how I repaired these nasty concrete steps at my rental/flip property this past summer. This video was so popular that YouTube had me marked as a “concrete repair guy.” HA! Hardly. I did a decent job, but I am by NO means a concrete professional.

Steps before repair

Another popular video I made was all about removing very old, very difficult, and VERY MESSY concreted tile. I worked on this for a client at the beginning of 2022, and it was HELL. But, it was also an opportunity to show you guys how to do it the best way possible. I go over what tools I used and how I went about doing the job.

I’ve also included some of my most popular shorts in this video. Who can forget this toilet’s double wax ring that was used to build up its flange?!

DIY Granite Countertops

Hey students!

Are you remodeling your kitchen and want to save yourself $1,000 (or more!)? I can help you with that.

Most kitchen renovations call for new countertops, which can be a costly item in a kitchen renovation. There is a way to reduce the cost, and that is installing a granite countertop yourself.

How do I go about doing this? Easy.

Find yourself a wholesale granite manufacturer. Most cities and suburbs have them. I live right outside of Pittsburgh, and I used Asian Granite. I went there, found the granite I wanted (bonus points if you can find something in their remnant section!), and had the measurements of the countertop space in my kitchen all laid out, in detail, for them. This gives them a rough idea of how much granite your will need and how much it will cost.

 
diy granite countertop installation
 

The granite company will send a rep out to your home to get the exact measurements for the countertops once you have installed your kitchen cabinetry. Obviously, this is to ensure the most accurate cut.

I usually pick up my own granite once it is cut, but I understand that is not what most people can do. Don’t worry— delivery options are available.

As for the actually installation of the granite, you need to watch my video. I break it down step-by-step exactly what you need to do to install granite countertops, from cutting the existing backsplash to prepare for the new granite…

 
cutting backsplash tile diy granite countertop installation bathroom remodeling teacher
 

to setting (I had help on this part!) and caulking the new granite…

 
DIY installing granite countertop bathroom remodeling teacher
 

and cutting and installing your new faucet and kitchen sink!

The end product speaks for itself. I hope this video helps you out in your own project!
