"I couldn’t be more pleased with our tile floors. The team at The Hard Part Tile and Repairs really went above and beyond. The layout and design, the precision and attention to detail as well as the diligence and dedication of the install, specifically in the meticulous and difficult cuts required to finish our job and in such small, tight spaces really showcase both their professionalism and their creative craftsmanship. The team were on-time, communicative, upfront and they kept their word, even when the job was more tough than any of us realised. They worked with us and we felt we were partners in the project the whole way through. They treated our home like theirs and it shows in the floors and we look forward to additional projects upcoming in the near future. Give them a call, you won’t regret it."

"Cory is a true craftsman. His work is excellent! His attention to detail and pursuit of excellence result in a work ethic and level of quality that are not often experienced these days. We're going to hire him again to replace the backsplash in our kitchen. I second everything stated by the others who reviewed Cory and his business. He is just a good guy.... has a can-do, positive attitude and great personality. This is the man you want for any tile installation needs!"

"Needed to repair subfloor in my only bathroom after a leak. J&S was able to demo, repair and retile in just the one day, leaving the second for grout and reinstallation of the toilet. The tile work is beautiful, the staff was friendly and professional - and everything was done efficiently! Javier is funny and did little extras without being asked - lubricant on an old door hinge and new grout around my sink. The man is truly a gem. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing tile work!!! <3"

"The work provided was very meticulous. I got a high end look at a reasonable price. Other bids were much higher. He also provided alternative suggestions in the tile lay out adding to the upscale look of the finished product."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Removing old tiles can be more complicated, but it can also be more manageable, depending on your circumstances. Typically, old tile is hard to remove because the adhesive had loads of time to bond with your wall, becoming a formidable foe between you and your new tile installation project. On the other hand, old tile in high-traffic areas can become loose, making it much easier to remove.

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.

Yes, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.

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. 

The best paints for shower tiles include epoxy, latex, or acrylic. Ideally, you should look for paints that are waterproof and mildew-resistant if you plan to paint shower or other bathroom tiles. You can even find waterproof paints made specifically for tiled surfaces, which will be the best option for shower tile paint that lasts as long as possible.
