Extracted from the article "Shopping materials for your ceramic tile installation project"

When you visit a dealer, you want to be able to get the feel of tiles and other accessories. It's worthwhile viewing the ceramic tiles and accessories in natural light and artificial light such as tube lighting. Some tiles and accessories may look different in natural light than when under artificial light.

If you don't have any idea what the bathroom tile installation will look like when completed, you should go through the manufacturer's catalogue for some ideas and help.

When choosing the product, take your time shopping around to compare the alternatives available. Very often you'll see something you like but soon find something better so don't worry about changing your mind, just remember it'll be worth the effort when you see your new bathroom tile installation finished just to your taste.

If you are still not satisfied then some manufacturers may be able to make a special design customised for you. However that can be rather expensive.

The bathroom size and the size of the tiles should be carefully considered as they are closely linked. The size of ceramic tile and the design of the tile make a big impact on the finish to the bathroom ceramic tile installation. Did you realise that in small bathrooms big tiles and large designs make your bathroom look even smaller so smaller tiles are more suitable?

One consideration for floor tiling may be slip resistance or polished finishes.

A certain percentage of extra tiles are always required beyond your ceramic tile installation requirements. This is due to breakages, wastages, and damage in other ways. You should order a minimum of an extra 1 % of plain tiles and 2 or 3 extra pieces for future replacement. This is important as tile manufacturing is a batch process and there are minor variations from batch to batch so it'll be impossible to get matching tiles from the same manufacturer later.

How to Use Wall Anchors

The Wall Anchor. I'm not writing about the type shown in the photo. I mean wall anchors you need when fastening things to the wall in your home. These include types such as molly, toggle, shield, self tapping.

I understand all you want to do is install a a shelf, right?  Not many things are as confusing as what type of wall anchor to use when you want to fasten something to the wall. It seems there are more variations than necessary and then which ones work best or are easiest to use?

I've outlined all you need to know in a visual guide to using wall anchors including which wall fastener to use depending on the type of wall and weight of the object being attached. And I've outlined installation tips and instructions.

I also lay down the straight information on which anchor types work well and which ones are more trouble than they're worth.

Water Heater Troubleshooting and Repair

The water heater is an amazingly reliable appliance and one you rely upon every day. It really has very few parts that can go wrong and most are easy to repair. Of course knowing the various water heater's components and their names are essential so reviewing the Anatomy of a Water Heater is a good starting point.

In the article How to Repair a Water Heater I'll provide you information on tank type and tankless water heaters, and I'll show you how to troubleshoot and repair your water heater. From replacing a water heater thermocouple to understanding the anatomy of a water heater to sizing a tankless water heater, it's all covered.

And in the tutorial Replacing a Water Heater Thermocouple or Flame Sensor I'll provide illustrated step-by-step instructions on how to remove and replace your water heater's thermocouple so you can keep yourself in hot water!

The Incandescent Lighting Ban

The ban on the 100 watt incandescent bulb is now in effect.

As of January 1, 2012 the law says you cannot manufacture or import into the United States any General Service Incandescent Lamp that is above 72 watts having a light output of 1490 - 2600 lumens and a minimum service life of 1,000 hours.

That means the $0.50, 100 watt, standard incandescent light bulb is now banned.

What has emerged to take its place is a $5.00, 72 watt, halogen bulb stuck inside a standard incandescent light bulb shape. I guess it's that shape so you don't notice that less light output now costs you 10 times more.

 Of course there is also the mercury containing 23 watt CFL bulb but that still costs about $4.00 to $5.00 too.

In the tutorial Incandescent Lighting Ban I'll explain a bit about the realities that are starting to set in about the standard incandescent light bulb ban and the frantic media hype trying to convince you it's not happening.
