Installing custom cabinets, ceramic tile, and high end appliances. Is a rolling small island cheesy?

Mar 08, 2007 by mel s | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling

I have a small L shaped wall 17"deep by 3' wide. I don't want to waste any space, so I have had several ideas, a wall of cabinets seems to "busy", and if I just install a working countertop with cone lights overhead you would be working looking at a wall. I thought about asking the cabinet maker to put good locking wheels and 3 cabinets underneath, and then we could roll it into the center of the kitchen for serving or working and then lock it back against the wall when not in use. As I am typing I am also considering the wear and tear on the wall....... I have never heard of this done. any ideas?

I wouldn't suggest a rolling island. Cheesy doesn't begin to describe it. Why not do a counter top in the L-shaped area with a decorative tile back splash & recessed lighting in the ceiling. It would give you extra prep room and create a little decorative nook to add to the room. Maybe a small built in bookshelf to house cookbooks or a pretty wine rack above the or to the side of the work area.

i'm looking for someone who could make a custom mosaic tile piece for my home?

My husband is into superheroes and would like a mosaic tile of Superman's "S" emblem on the floor leading into his superhero room. I only seem to find people who do your basic ceramic tile. I think this might require an artisan of another sort. Any suggestions?

If you have a university close to you try the art department if you don't have one a good floor tile person should be able to make it as a last resort (only because of the cost) try the link below they do very very nice work.
Good luck

Can I tile over a one piece ceramic countertop?

Dec 20, 2006 by smigdiggler | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)

My wife and I want to redo our bathroom countertop the current countertop is a one piece countertop that includes the sink and 5" backsplash. This is a condo unit that some manufacture custom built 200 of these to go in every unit. Anyway, we are going to drop bowl out of the countertop with a grinder and then we planned on putting mastic or thinset directly on the one piece ceramic counterop and then grouting the tile. Does anyone have any input on whether the mastic will stick to the ceramic??
Thanks,

DO NOT USE MASTIC!!! Youshould use a oly modified thin-set. Mastic is not ment for wet area's. The thinset will work as long as there is no bond inhibiting elements (wax, cleaning resadue, ect) on the surface. The polomers added to such thin set will allow the exspansion and contrasting effect that the humidity will do in the bathroom. TAhe substrait you are using is OK @ best...but still passes for TCA (Tile Council of America) recomendations.(TCA sets industry standards for the Tile industry)

Upgrades to new home construction: hardwood floors/bathroom tile/countertops? Cost? Best Durability?

Apr 06, 2008 by Would | Posted in Other - Home & Garden

Well, I am building a new home. The builder offers custom ceramic tile in bathroom, kitchen, laundry room and foyers with the starting price. I'm going smaller on square footage, but I want to go higher with interior quality. For those of you who have experience building a new home, what type of upgrade in $ per square foot am I looking at for upgrading to Travertine tiling in the bathroom, kitchen? Also, is Limestone a more attractive option?

I also want to fore go all carpet. I will go with hardwood flooring instead... I've read Oak is the best and most durable? True? What kind of costs can I expect upgrading from carpet to Oak hardwood in bedroom and living room? I know the builder can probably help with this some, but we know the end total price often goes up once it's all said and done.

Also, what's the best counter top material? Most durable? Upgrade cost? :-) Lots of questions I know, but I am looking for some general direction.

Travertine and limestone are natural products requiring more maintenance so check into that ( and generallly 2/3 times the price) There are many great looking glazed tiles that are as low as 1 $ a s/f , but don t always go the cheapest...Oak flooring is very durable and most available so cost is lower..Go to a 3 or 4 in plank in oak and you ll get a good floor but also help keep price down. If really interested in the hardness of the wood ask for the Janka (hardness) rating. A good store will know or have access to it GL

New ceramic tiles can help re-create old look for fireplaces

10.03.10

DEAR MARTHA: I recognize exactly what you're talking about. My adolescence home didn't have a ceramic tile setting; it had brick. But many of the older homes I visited and worked in beginning in my remodeling and structure career had imposing ceramic tile surrounds. In actually, Cincinnati was where it hurts to the famous Rookwood Delftware, which made entire ceramic tile mantels and surrounds. Thousands of these fireplaces fragments in service in the eccentric suburbs of Cincinnati that sprouted up on the seven hills above the inner conurbation.

The good word is that you will be able to acquisition new ceramic tile that looks like it was made 100 years ago. Several manufacturers specialize in decorative tile that can be tolerant of for fireplaces. Some of this tile is custom-made -- power-painted and glazed when you non-functional it. They might be able to do a custom color for you.

The bad information, as you discovered, is that you'll never find this tile at a home ground center. You will have to go to a specialty tile believe in, and you should visit more than one.

I recently did the same obsession you're going to do. I installed ceramic tile around a fireplace in my accessible. It was a tile that my wife discovered in a drop in on to the largest tile stock in our city. This detailed pattern has all sorts of various trim tiles that look like door and window border moldings as well as hem strips that deduct you to create a multiplicity of designs.

The question in working with tile like this and a fireplace setting is making undeviating you calculate how to get the tile to fit between the mantel and the fireplace slit. It took me an hour or more to end how I was going to make peace this happen. Even with that amount of labour, I still ended up with a pesky cut tile in the center of the setting. If you want the tile to be installed with no cuts, you have to buy the tile before you found your home and lay it out carefully on a segment of plywood so that the mason who builds your fireplace can see the faithful width and top you need for the fireplace break.
