"Excellent experience working with A&G Tile! Andy's communication was excellent, he worked with me on schedule planning, kept me up-to-date, was clear and professional about estimates, billing, costs, schedule, work process. Very easy and enjoyable to work with, he helped me with material selection and design questions - knowledgeable, flexible, personable. Andy was extremely conscientious and hard-working, adding a weekend day to catch up if needed so the rest of the project could move forward. Coordination with other trades - plumber, electrician, etc. was easy and efficient. He has decades of experience, very knowledgeable and skilled in his trade, has commitment to quality of work and attention to detail. I couldn't be happier with the end product, everything is beautiful! I would not hesitate to hire A&G Tile again, and highly recommend Andy's work."

"Cesar came to give us an estimate for the flooring and shower.  It seemed very reasonable so we scheduled him to start work as soon as we closed on the house.  Since we had to return to another state to sell that house, and no personal items were in the house, we provided a key for him to work around another contractor.  He had provided a sketch of what the shower would look like with and alcove for shampoos, and would send us pictures of his progress.  He brought by samples of the ceramic tile he thought we would like and made the suggestion of placing the floor tile in a diamond design to contrast with the square design of tile in the center of the house.  The end result was beautiful.  All his or his assistants work was very good.  They would clean the areas up before leaving.  They finished the flooring before we returned, and finished the shower a week later (since we had not expected to sell our other house so quickly and returned sooner than expected).  Once our kitchen was almost completed, his worker came the next day to put up the backsplash, the accent and the floor board tile around 3/4 of the island.  He and his workers were very polite and listened to what we wanted, even when we decided to change or add work to be done before that part of it  was actually started, and they adjusted wonderfully.  We were extremely pleased with all the work accomplished by them.

"The owner was fine, but Anthony, the installer made it all worthwhile. He was an absolute perfectionist (the outcome of my kitchen backsplash is beautiful) and he was a joy to have around as he worked."

"Chris came right away to help us. He was super friendly and informative. He gave us a fair estimate and had a crew here within 2 days. The install team of Ricardo and John were fantastic. They did a beautiful job and showed a lot of pride in their work. We will definitely recommend them to friends and family and we will use Wall to Wall Flooring again on future projects."

Customers say: Quality work

"Neil is extremely professional, competent, and thorough. He installed a floating wall unit in our Master. Some electrical and wall repair in addition to a complicated assembly of the unit was required. He showed up on time, finished as promised and was meticulous, cleaning up and removing all debris. Reasonable quote and even followed up to make sure the cable company had no problems with the TV hook up he provided. We are very impressed with his work ethic and will hire him in the future as well as recommend him to our friends."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

It’s important to leave a gap in the corner when tiling to allow room for tile expansion. Leaving between one eighth of an inch to one tenth of an inch is enough space. 

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

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.

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

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.
