But the truth is that you can learn how to lay tile in your own home very easily.

There are plenty of books and online articles about installing ceramic tile. Most have diagrams or pictures. However, the easiest way to learn how to tile a floor, countertop or any other surface is to watch an expert at work. Now, unless you know a tile installer personally (in which case you could ask for a discount if you do not want to lay tile yourself), you are not likely to be able to watch someone lay tile in person.

The next best option is to watch a "how to lay tile video" that has been prepared by an expert. A good video will teach you everything that you need to know, from choosing tile to removing the plumbing fixtures to the actual cutting and installing of tile.

You should watch the video several times. After the first time, visit the home improvement store and tour the tile aisle. The tools and supplies should look familiar to you.

Then watch the video a second time and pay attention to the instructions for dealing with these issues.

After you feel confident that you understand what you are getting yourself into, buy your tile, supplies, tools (rent a wetsaw) and get started. You may need to refer back to the video a few times during the project.

When you are finished, step back and admire your hard work. Then think about how much money you just saved. The cost of the video is far less than the cost of hiring someone to lay the ceramic tile for you. I think that you will find that watching a video makes tiling a lot easier to accomplish than simply reading an article and looking a a few pictures.
