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.

Nicknamed the “Mountain State,” West Virginia is very hilly and rugged, with the highest mean altitude (1,500 ft/457 m) of any state E of the Mississippi. Nearly all of the state is on the Allegheny Plateau, with the jagged Virginia–West Virginia line roughly following the eastern escarpment of the plateau (known as the Allegheny Front). Extremely irregular in outline, West Virginia has two narrow projections—the Northern Panhandle, which cuts north between Ohio and Pennsylvania, and the Eastern Panhandle, which cuts east between Maryland (with the Potomac River forming the state line) and Virginia. In the Eastern Panhandle, a part of the Appalachian ridge and valley country, lie the state's lowest point (240 ft/73 m) near Harpers Ferry where the Shenandoah River joins the Potomac, as well as its highest point, Spruce Knob (4,860 ft/1,481 m).
