The Builder's Alliance Crafting Spaces with Cohesive Design and Expertise - Episode 59

The Home Building and Remodeling Show

Unlock the full potential of your building and remodeling projects as we dive into the collaborative spirit that can make your work shine. Together with industry experts, I, Chris Kirby, will guide you through the essentials of crafting strong partnerships with interior designers and fellow contractors. These alliances are not just about expanding your business—they're about creating a symphony of design and functionality that will leave clients in awe. Our Shop Talk is the real deal for hands-on advice, where we get into the nitty-gritty of tile installation, challenges with corners and edges, and the debate over tile sizes—all to polish your skills and keep you ahead in the competitive world of home construction.
Ever wondered how to master the art of estimating tile quantities or stay abreast of the enthralling design trends sweeping through homes? Look no further. We zero in on the must-knows for ordering tiles, with a focus on avoiding the pitfalls of underestimating and embracing the beauty of surplus for those intricate patterns and future fixes. Artisanal tiles like Zellige are stealing the spotlight, and we'll explore how their distinctiveness can breathe life into any space. You'll emerge from this episode with a profound appreciation for the character these tiles add to a room and the expertise to educate clients about the charm of irregular edges and textured finishes. Join us for a journey through the transformative world of home building and remodeling, where each tile and partnership lays the groundwork for success.
