"Jim was great, very glad we found him. He rebuilt stairs and landings, installed stairway rails, did tile in the kitchen, replaced storm doors and more. He is an excellent craftsman, able to manage project work all by himself in good time. He was neat, respectful of someone else's home, polite, jovial, personable, very interesting person to chat with. Yes he is expensive but I understand the experienced tradesmen command a good price and his quality of work justifies it. And yes there really are is a "bird dog(s)" that we got to meet, great pups !! Thanks Jim, we will be calling you again."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.

Options include clay, concrete, and slate tiles. Each offers unique durability, aesthetics, and costs.

When choosing tiles for a shower floor, avoid highly porous tile materials, like those with a water absorption rating over 7%. Don’t use non-vitreous tiles, or tiles fired at low temperatures, because they will absorb more water. If you use a highly porous tile in the shower, the tiles can wear down faster, meaning they’ll need to be replaced much sooner.

Figure out how much tile you need by measuring the backsplash area. Measure the height and length in feet and multiply to get the square footage. Don’t make adjustments for outlets or small cutouts but subtract the square footage for windows or other large obstructions from the total. To account for waste, get 10% more than your calculation.

Yes, provided you aren’t installing drywall over it. But you can skim coat it, apply new tile right on top, paint it, or stencil it. For more budget- and DIY-friendly options, you can install beadboard or apply decals. Just make sure that the current tiles are in good condition and prepped well for the paint or adhesive to stick.
