Qué cubre este vídeo
Matt and Kristen install 3x6-inch travertine tiles in a herringbone pattern on a 50-square-foot concrete patio at their off-grid property in Puerto Rico.3:39 To manage the layout, they first set a straight border before filling the center with the herringbone pattern, opting for a north-south orientation to improve symmetry.12:25 During the installation, they encounter frequent rain, which creates water pools on the concrete surface.6:16 To ensure a proper bond, Matt sprinkles dry thinset powder onto the wet concrete to absorb excess moisture before applying the mortar.22:45 The project requires numerous custom cuts, which the pair performs manually.22:52 After completing the tile setting, they attempt to apply grout but stop when the color—a dark gray—fails to match the travertine’s lighter, cream-toned aesthetic.24:25 They decide to delay grouting until they can source a more suitable color from a hardware store.25:22 The project cost approximately $300.23:27
