"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.

"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

Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you’re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option. Cutting dry also means you can apply tile grout sooner, so it’s better for rushed projects.

While you shouldn’t use thinset mortar on its own as a floor leveler, it can work alongside other products to help level floors. For instance, you could start with a self-leveling compound, let that dry, then apply backer board with thinset mortar to help fully even out the floors ahead of laying tile.

Solvents dissolve tile adhesive, but the right solvent for the job depends on what type of adhesive you are trying to remove. For instance, dispersion adhesive requires stronger removers, like bile soap or even paint stripper, but some adhesives, like cement-based products, can come off with water and soap or mortar remover.

Yes, construction materials like tile, lumber, drywall, and hardware can be disposed of in a dumpster, just not in your regular garbage. As you’re planning your project, just make sure to rent the correct size of dumpster based on the scope of your needs and be aware of weight limits. Tile weighs a lot (along with other construction materials), and your costs could increase if you exceed the weight limit in your contract with the dumpster provider. 

You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.
