    tile to glass block window transition

    Is this a tub or tub and shower? Will this edge get a lot of water? Pictures would help but my gut response is I would tile it. Maybe get bullnose tiles that match the wall tile and use those...

    Tiling a Bathtub/Shower Surround

    Thanks TileGuy! Honestly it's not perfect and it's driving me crazy...my girlfriend keeps telling me "If you didn't keep pointing out the flaws to me, I'd never see them!"...nonetheless they are there and bugging me...plenty of lessons learned for next time though!

    Tiling a Bathtub/Shower Surround

    Wow those tiles look really green in the pics...I don't think the pics do them justice.... Any suggestions on tiling the upper slanted part of the wall? I just can't help but think I'll stick tiles up there and they will just fall down...

    Tiling a Shower Shelf/Cubby

    I'm a little torn on how to tile this area. Do the grout lines go on the outside of the box (on the wall)? Or do I run the wall tiles over the cubby tiles and have the grout lines inside the box? Hope this makes sense...

    Motion Sensor

    A lot of the motion sensor light switches will pick up motion anywhere within a 180 degree area so they should work as long as you can see the switch when you walk in.
