Drilling a clean hole through tile looks simple—right up until you actually have to do it. Porcelain in particular can be extremely hard. If you attack it with the wrong bit, too much pressure, or too much heat, you can burn through an expensive drill bit, chip the tile, or turn a five-minute job into

Marble is hard to beat when it comes to looks. A marble mosaic flowing through a zero-entry shower and into the bathroom floor can create a beautiful, high-end finish.

When people see a failed shower floor, they usually notice the obvious things first. The tile looks stained. The grout looks dark. There may be mold, mildew, or a smell that never quite goes away. From the surface, it is easy to think the problem is just dirty grout or old tile. But as Ed

Demo day can look a little chaotic. (and cool! Watch our video!) There are tools running, tile coming off the walls, dust in the air, and pieces of the old project getting carried out. It is one of those parts of remodeling that can feel messy no matter how careful you are. But good demolition
