Always looking to save you money on materials and offering valuable advice. I would recommend anyone needing tile or remodel work to utilize his many years of experience, knowledge and skill. Thank you for a great job."

"Mike was awesome. From the time I contacted him on the phone he was very courteous and polite. He was on time every time I met him. His work was spotless. He's a perfectionist and it shows on his work. We are very please on how the tile and grout work came out. He also left the place clean after he was done with work. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs flooring work done."
"They were amazing. It was absolutely amazing. The cost was reasonable. They took out things that had been there for a long time. They said it would be dry in twenty minutes and it was. They were polite and it sounds like a fair advertising. We built a house now that are all tiles so we don?t need them which is also wonderful. But I would definitely recommend them very highly. They did an incredible job. They used non-toxic cleaning agents which was very important to us.
The price was very reasonable and we used a coupon from a local magazine. They were very professional. I have no one complaint."

"We liked our interior design plan that we received , but it just took a long time to get the final plan. She had told us in the beginning that she had gotten a big response to that deal.
Yes, it’s always a good idea to keep a box or two of spare tiles after a home renovation project. Tiles can crack from improper installation, heavy foot traffic, and impact from drops. Having some extra tile on hand can make replacement fast, easy, and affordable. Plus, some manufacturers might discontinue particular colors or styles, and slight variations in tile colors between batches could mean mismatched tiles even if your product isn’t discontinued. Having a few spare tiles in storage can help avoid these issues, as well.
The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic.
For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.
Bathrooms are naturally moisture-rich environments, so choose a durable, water-resistant tile for your tub surround. Porcelain and ceramic are two popular options that are also quite affordable. Glass is another good option that’s also low-maintenance—you just need a glass cleaner like you would use on the bathroom mirror. Natural stone tile is porous, but it’s still a viable option if you choose it in a glazed version.
The cost to install porcelain tile is about $1,930 on average. Porcelain tile prices range from $880 to $3,000 or more. The average cost tends to be higher than ceramic tile because porcelain tile is very durable. Porcelain tile rating also factors into the material cost.
Tile ratings are as follows:
Grade 0: Walls only
Grade 1: Walls and light traffic floors
Grade 2: Rooms with light traffic, but not kitchens or hallways
Grade 3: Kitchens, hallways, and entryways
Grade 4: Any area, interior or exterior
Grade 5: Highest durability good for any area, interior or exterior
Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.
