"It was great! We had used them in January to do the downstairs bathroom, and were so pleased with every aspect of their work, professionalism, and quality of service, we wouldn't have "dreamed" (ha ha! get it!) of using anyone else! 
We did this bathroom in different colors than the first, and added a few other features (like wainscoting) and it turned out BEAUTIFUL! I honestly can't decide which bathroom I like better! They both have a different feel to them, but I am glad this is the one I get to use every day!!
The old bathroom had awful 2" square PINK tiles all over the tub walls, floor, and walls! It was UGLY! We went with the grey marble look for the tub enclosure, and I love how it is all one piece, including the ceiling, with a nice sized cut out shelf for my shampoo. They replaced my tub (which was old, chipped, and stained), and gave me the awesome shower head I had fallen in love with from the other bathroom!! (the old shower head was all one piece with the pipe, and couldn't be easily replaced). In this bathroom, we wanted wainscoting which was perfect since there was all that ugly pink tile going halfway up the walls! They were able to just demo what was necessary, and put the wainscoting over it, which saved us big bucks and reinforced the walls!
The toilet we got is so nice! I like to recycle, reuse and not be wasteful, and the toilet they gave us has two buttons on top to flush! One for "light flushing", and the other for "heavy flushing"!! It is cool! Everyone comments on it when we show off the bathroom!
We also picked out some beautiful ceramic tile for the floors, that look like antique wood planks, and found a nice vanity, light and mirror that they installed for us. (My husband custom made the counter top you see in the photos)  They painted the walls and celling, and even added an outlet for us!  Now not only is my bathroom absolutely beautiful, but much more practical!!"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

Tile costs vary by material; for example, ceramic tends to be more affordable than stone. These influence installation timelines and skill requirements.

Yes, you can tile over existing tiles in a bathroom, but it is not always recommended. For this method to be successful, the original tile surface must be clean, flat, and free of damage such as cracks, unevenness, mold, or mildew. While tiling over existing tiles can save time and money, there are potential drawbacks. The new adhesive may not bond properly, and the process adds extra weight to the wall or floor. Additionally, the increased height of the surface could interfere with door clearances. For the best and most durable results, removing the old tiles before installing new ones is generally the better option.

Glazed ceramic tiles don’t need to be sealed because the glazing already offers some protection against moisture. Unglazed ceramic tiles need to be sealed to keep the porous tile safe from moisture and staining. However, both types of tile can benefit from sealing. Sealant can make the tiles easier to keep clean and offer more resistance to water, spills, and stains.

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.
