Ok, so your thinking about a good way to brighten up part of your home.

Sure anyone can do it, its easy! That is just what I thought too.
Oh boy what a mess. I’m still getting grief from the fountain of all knowledge and she has also informed all her talkative mates too.
I still get ribbed down the pub too. Is your floor flat or do the bumps come as a designer extra.
Yea, yea the Rockies are smoother than your floor. It hurts.

If your thinking about taking on some serious tile work,get to know the basics at least.
Read up about the subject. Give some thought on how you want the finished job to look. Will it fit in with your existing color scheme? Consult your wife or partner. This alone may be quite an eye opener. May be she has different views or they are not what you had in mind. Should you get a craftsman in to do it. Do it yourself or a friend is a dab hand at it. What will it take to get them interested in doing the work? A few beers or a hill of cash? These thoughts may seem a bit silly but what your really doing is starting a plan of action.

There is nothing worse than starting a job and losing interest in it. You will then need to either clean it up or get someone in to finish it off.

So now your starting to think about a few things. This is good.

Here is a few more things you may need to consider.
How will your project enhance the value of your home? Should you use a bright light color to give a feeling of air and space or a darker feel for a moody feeling. An example would be shades of blue in a bathroom or shower area. What sort of tile will you use?
Plain or pattern. You may start getting a few ideas by looking how others have done theirs. Look at magazines, buildings or images on line for some inspiration.

So you now have a good ideas what sort of result you are looking for. Now what is the best way to do it. If money is no object,just book in workman. Most of us need to watch the pennies and doing it yourself is a real option. There is no reason why you can not do it. You just need a little guidance on how to install tile.
