From the publisher

Though installing ceramic tiles can still be time consuming, it is no longer particularly difficult, which makes it an ideal project for do-it-yourselfers. Homeowners can save hundreds - or even thousands of pounds by doing the work themselves. In addition to its practical benefit, ceramic and stone tile lends itself to creative expression.
