"We were super happy with excellent job installing custom mural tiles from Italy on my stucco house exterior! The Italian art tiles were very valuable & meant a lot to me - so I was relieved when Nando & Rob completed the 2 large tile murals perfectly! They were very professional, on time, & clean up was excellent! Nando & Rob very friendly & went extra mile to drive to get my hard to find grout color! I would hire again in a heartbeat! Thank you!"

"If you're looking for exceptional work, look no more! such a professional and courteous group of individuals that provide quality work. They were able to install flooring in two days and really made sure we were happy with the final results. We couldn't have picked a better team of installers and Luis really went above and beyond for us and was a pleasure to work with."

"Explosive City Tile did a great job installing the new rubber floor and turf at my new fitness facility. They communicated effectively how they would execute the project, kept the work environment safe and clean, and also provided me great feedback and suggestions on how to align the floor properly. Even though they are busy, they did a great job squeezing me into their schedule! I would highly recommend and will hire again!"

Customers say: True professional

"I recently had my kitchen remodeled. I friend recommended Jason. I did not use my contractors tile guy. I had several ideas for my wall that had not been tiled before. Jason worked with me to recommend a good pattern and tile size for my space. I love the finished project. It looks so good and I get complements from my friends. He was just what I needed."

"I really canâ  t say anything negative about the company. After submitting my request with Home Adviser, I was contacted immediately by the owner, Rodney Carrillo, who set up a time, the following day, to look over the job. A contract and bid were sent to my e-mail address later that day. When the project began, they arrived on time, were very neat, polite and knowledgeable about the work. They provided us with a schedule for the following five days. At the end, the tile was laid as you would expect from a professional tile company. Thank you Carrillo Tile, great job."

"Install went fast and easy except for one hiccup. Installer found a leak from my bathroom into the pantry so we had to halt install so I could repair and let the subfloor dry out. When ready, Aaron was back timely and finished the job. Aaron went above and beyond to make sure everything was right and I was happy."

"We had a large 120 so foot kitchen backsplash floor to ceiling around doors and windows tile job with a very delicate 1-inch diamond shaped penny tile. The tile contractors our general kitchen contractor hires walked off the job and said they couldnâ t work with this tile. Rayo tile saved the day! I got 4 bids that were all pretty close in price. They werenâ t the cheapest but they were the best. Constant communication. Showing up on time. Incredible work and we had a very difficult tile to work with. Cleaned their workspace. These guys are professionals like all contractors should be. Hire them."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Flooring transition strips can be secured to the subfloor using glue, nails, or screws. For a more secure installation, especially in high-traffic areas, using screws or nails is recommended as it reduces the risk of slippage. However, if aesthetic appeal is a priority, glue provides a cleaner, more seamless finish without any visible holes or screw heads.

The choice of whether to tile or use an acrylic tub surround is up to you and can be based on a number of factors, including aesthetics, cost, waterproofing, ease of cleaning, and maintenance.

Tile is a beautiful, classic bathtub surround choice; while tile installation cost is higher, it’s customizable and offers visual appeal. Tile is also harder to clean and presents waterproofing problems because of grout lines. Acrylic surrounds can be more affordable, don’t require much maintenance, and are easier to clean. However, they aren’t usually as visually appealing and may need to be replaced if they become damaged.

No, you don’t technically need a cement backer board for a wall tiling project, but not using it risks disastrous moisture damage. Cement is naturally water-resistant, whereas drywall soaks it in, which can lead to warping or mold growth. Always use a backer board treated with a waterproof membrane for bathrooms and other chronically damp areas to ensure complete tile shower waterproofing.

Yes, provided you aren’t installing drywall over it. But you can skim coat it, apply new tile right on top, paint it, or stencil it. For more budget- and DIY-friendly options, you can install beadboard or apply decals. Just make sure that the current tiles are in good condition and prepped well for the paint or adhesive to stick.

If you’re looking for a durable tile for a shower floor, consider porcelain, stone, or vinyl tiles. Each of these options, when installed correctly, will stand up well to everything from water and moisture to the impact from a dropped bottle of body wash. These materials are also easy to clean and maintain, making them popular options for shower floors.
