Experience shows!
Back in 1958 there was no such thing as a do-it-yourself-tile installation. That was when Hank was first introduced to the trade.
Tile all had to be set over or into fresh concrete or cement mortar and took some real skills not even taught to todays tradesmen. In the early 1960s the first thinset mortar appears, making some of the work easier and much faster because, for the first time in over 1000 years, tile could be set over hard, cured, concrete walls and floors.
Great changes have made it now possible for you to do your own tile installations and make it look like a professional's workmanship..... In fact, some professional tile installers use these DVDs to help with their projects! These videos are also being used in some Home Building classes in High Schools as well as in some trade schools and rehabilitation facilities.
Don't let the low price of these DVDs fool you (presently only $9.95 each with free shipping). They were produced by professionals with professional cameras, sound and lighting equipment with Hank as the only actor (He isn't really an actor and that is obvious) showing how to do tile projects and handle the materials.
