We Turned Our BIGGEST DIY Fail into Our Dream Studio Floor!

Welcome to Liang Ceramic Studio! After our first attempt at finishing our concrete studio floor ended in disaster, we almost gave up. But this time, we’re doing it right! Follow our journey as we transform a peeling concrete mess into a beautiful, durable tile floor perfect for our ceramics studio.

In this video, we’ll show you:
1. How we prepped the failed concrete for a fresh start.
2. The entire process of pouring self-leveling concrete for a perfectly flat base.
3. Our step-by-step method for laying large format tiles.
4. Tips for using a tile leveling system for a professional finish.
5. The final grouting process that brought it all together!

This was a massive project filled with lessons learned. We share a full cost breakdown at the end to help with your own projects. If you’ve ever had a DIY go wrong, this video is for you!
