"02/05/2020 - My wife and I have been in our home for over 20-years and the backyard was in dire need of a “refurbishment”. We chose to center the emphasis on our pool area to turn it into a backyard oasis for our kids and grandkids when they come over to “hang-out” with Mom/Ninnie and Dad/Papa. We decided on putting in an outdoor seating area complete with a BBQ and housing for our refrigerator and stereo. After everything was built (by a separate contractor) we chose to tile the whole project with porcelain slats in earth tone colors – not an easy task. We had met Bano when he was working on another project in our neighborhood and really admired his work; therefore, we contracted with him to install the tile and electrical on our project. Bano is a perfectionist. Because of his craftsmanship he can manipulate his work to disguise any irregularities with his eagle-eye and unparalleled expertise. He can make a project perfect! Bano has an enormous capacity for work. He shows up promptly and stays until he comes to a specified stopping point. He is kind, trustworthy and fair. Our project came out far beyond expectation. The compliments we get are countless – he set the stage for our sanctuary. I can confidently say that we will proudly be sharing our haven (in all its glory) for years to come with family and friends. We will definitely utilize Bano's services for any future projects."

"Cesk and his crew were amazing. They showed up on time every day for two weeks. Cesk showed up to oversee that things were progressing as scheduled. His crew of installers were the best They cleaned up at the end of each day and when they were on the job they worked hard. I would definitely recommend Erik Tile."

"I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of my outdoor shed repair. Robert did an outstanding job!! He was thorough, highly knowledgeable in his field, explained everything in detail and reasonable in price. He and Alex took pride in their work, which I am so grateful. I am old-school and you just don’t find that easily nowadays. Robert I enjoyed our conversations and the peace you gave me knowing I gave the job to the right person. I highly recommended them. You will not be disappointed!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re out of spacers for your tile installation, you can use pennies. Each time you place a tile, stick the pennies around the edges (on the sides and the corners). Like working with spacers, you’ll want the same amount of space around each tile before they set.

The tile spacing you should use will depend on the tile and where you’re installing it. Choosing the right tile spacers to maintain a consistent gap between your tiles is tricky. Generally, tile spacing shouldn’t be less than 2 millimeters on walls and 3 millimeters on floors because of stress relief requirements. Getting it wrong can result in uneven tiles and early repairs.

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.
