How many sheets of plywood do you need for a floor for 20x30?

Furthermore, there are various sizes for sheets of plywood as well.
Can you lay self stick tile on laminate floor?

Can you use floor mortar on wall tiles?
Probably yes, but it depends on the exact labeling on that mortar, and what kind of tile and wall surface you have. Check to see what kinds of tile (ceramic, porcelain, travertine, etc.) it sticks to, and what size of tile. Also see what kinds of substrates it's approved for. Substrate is the surface to which you want to attach the tile. If the bag says it sticks to cementious backerboard, and you have tile backerboard on the walls, then it's good to go.
How much does it cost to install porcelain kitchen tile in the North east US?
It varies greatly from product to product and from market
to market. The best way to get an answer is to put an ad on Craigslist
telling what you want installed, the more detail you can give the better the quote will be... ie..
"3/4 inch, unfinished oak hardwood over wood subfloor,
new construction, 400 sq feet, need it done this week, paying cash.".
The lesson here is that the more detail you put in the ad, the better the quote.. You will have to understand that not every installer has Golden Hands, some are thieves & butchers, so you may not always want the low bidder..
Transfer tape really is a crucial element in making and applying vinyl designs. Sure if you are making small one piece items or large simple items you may be able to get away without it. But 99% of the time you really do need it.
When the vinyl is still attached to the original backing all of the elements of your design are exactly where they are supposed to be. The point of the transfer tape is to lift everything off of the backing and expose the adhesive. It will accomplish this all at the same time while retaining everything in perfect alignment.
Now the vinyl has a more aggressive adhesive than the transfer tape does. So when you stick your vinyl down to something the vinyl will stay behind, again still in perfect alignment, and the transfer tape comes off leaving your finished project.
Now this works best when you do what is commonly referred to as a "kiss cut". This means that you only cut through the vinyl and not the backing too. Then you remove or "weed" out the unwanted vinyl leaving behind a square of backing material with your cut vinyl design sitting on it.

What do you need to put on top of a wooden porch floor before putting porcelain tile on it?
First, make sure it's level and very sturdy. The materials going down add up to a lot of extra weight, so make sure your porch was build to support it.
Next, you'll want to lay backer board. I prefer hardi-backer 1/4 inch. There are several other brand that will work as well, but hardi backer is light weight and easier to work with. Make sure to hit all your mounting points with the correct type of screws (backer-on are made for this, but you can just as easily use another).
Tape up your seams with backer board tape and your ready for thinset
How many 13x13 tiles do you need to cover a 110 square are?
There can be no sensible answer because there are no units given. The answer will depend on whether the tiles are 13 cm x 13 cm or 13 inch x 13 inch, and whether the area is 13 ft x 13 ft or whatever.
Making the default assumption, that the units are the same, the result for the unlikely scenario is:
13 x 13 units = 169 square units so 1 tile will be more than enough to cover 110 square units!

Your plumber is responsible for all repair costs associated with the damage his negligence has caused. Your home insurance may cover this expense until you recover the money from the plumber.
Can you install laminate flooring in an entry?
If the entry is open to the elements, then I would say no. Water would get into the joints and degrade the unprotected fibre board base beneath the laminate. Even if the entry is closed off you are going to be walking a lot of water in. You could seal the joints off with clear silicon and put a door mat down but then it would negate the effect this sort of flooring promotes.
