Wow, I started out in tile in my teens and that is a great example of prep work. You are right, that floor will outlast the house. Looks good man.
I thought I was the only genius who used the cardboard as homemade joint spacers.

How do you deal with the extra height from the concrete board? Transition wise.

Nice. That would be rock solid. I'd hate to be the guy that has to tear that out if you ever want to change it up, even 20 years down the road.

While I would love to redo my kitchen floor (the lino is in rough shape), I think my shingles may need to be replaced first. I haven't climbed up the ladder to check, but a partial shingle came down during one of those vicious windstorms. It's either mine or my neighbours (the colour is similar on both homes). Do you do, know of, any roofers?
