The first step to any successful tile installation is the layout. Tile is a permanent surface that you will have to live with for many years...you'll want to get it right the first time!
Many problems arise simply from not knowing how to measure and layout the area. There are many books and courses that explain other aspects of tile jobs such as setting materials, tools, tear down, etc. Proper layout of the tile job is the single most important factor that separates an amateur from a professional.

Two great rivers, the Mississippi and the Missouri, have had a great influence on the development of Missouri. The Mississippi tied the region to the South, particularly to New Orleans. The Missouri crosses the state from west to east and enters the Mississippi near St. Louis; the portion of its valley between St. Louis and what became Kansas City was the greatest avenue of early-19th-cent. advance westward across the continent.
The region N of the Missouri River is largely prairie land, where, as on the Iowa plains to the north, corn and livestock are raised. Most of the region S of the Missouri is covered by foothills and by the plateau of the Ozark Mts., a region of hill country populated by a relatively isolated, self-reliant people. The rough, heavily forested eastern section of the Ozarks extends into the less hilly farming plateau in the west and encompasses the irregular, twisting Lake of the Ozarks to the northwest.
