"Dave was great! The best communication and transparency I've seen in a long time. Dave explained what he needed to do to install the dryer vent and got right to work...NO wasted time. He installed the vent and made sure it was working properly. The vent looks great! Dave is knowledgable, professional, and a nice person. He also stayed in touch, letting me know how soon he would arrive and when he was on his way. I really appreciated that. We will definitely call him the next time we need a handyman."

"Genarro and his crew did an absolutely AMAZING job with our large format (4x4) tile installation! This guy is a perfectionist, which is something we certainly appreciated for the tile install. Reworked a few tiles that we thought were fine but were not up to his standards . What can I say - this guy is a lifetime pro, does the job at a very competitive rate and after 2 years of daily use - 0 cracks or defects. Thank you Genarro!!!"

"Excellent job! I would like to thank Shirley and her team at DS Legend Home Builders. They did a fantastic job on our kitchen remodel. She was very patient with our design process and helped us bring it all together. In the end, The quality of the work was great. They cleaned up daily and had excellent communication on who and when the installers would be there. We had weekly walk-throughs to go over things we wanted to tweak, and they were very accommodating. After our final walk-through, Shirley came personally to go over every detail to ensure I was happy. I would like to thank everyone who worked on my project and will definitely be calling them for our next project."

"We needed a glass tile back splash added to our new counter top. We contacted J B Tile & Stone and asked for an estimate. John Brouillette, the owner, promptly arrived at the appointed time and did a careful and extensive review of our needs and the tile required. We made an appointment for the work to be done and he arrived precisely on time and carefully placed drop cloths and masked off counter areas to protect from potential damage. John again engaged us to offer alternative tile placement to ensure we understood our options before beginning to tile. He was meticulous and careful in his work and maintained a great attitude that made us feel at ease and confident in his skill. At all times he was considerate and focused on his work. When he finished the tile installation he cleaned up thoroughly and scheduled for the grout application. Again he arrived precisely on time and got right to work, proceeding carefully to make sure the grout application was perfect. Again he cleaned up thoroughly and left us with a product we are very proud of. I have no reservation hiring John again and highly recommend him. Ellen Freeman"

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.

For glass tile, you want to use unsanded grout. Sanded grout is a stronger and grittier cement grout that is great for installing tiles with wider gaps and into joints. However, it is susceptible to scratching glass tile and is more difficult to use in thinner gaps. Unsanded grout, while more expensive, is easier to fit between thin gaps and is less harsh on delicate materials, like glass tile.

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.

Glass tile can cost as much as or more than other durable tile types. When choosing the right tile for you, knowing the advantages and disadvantages of each can help you make an informed decision. The pros and cons of glass tile include:

Pros

  • Light-reflecting to add brightness

  • Waterproof and mold-resistant

  • Made from recyclable materials 

Cons

  • High cost compared to similar and more durable materials

  • Usually requires professional installation

  • More easily scratched compared to materials like ceramic and porcelain

Tile—specifically smaller, mosaic-style tiles—is the best type of flooring for building a walk-in shower base. Shower pans come with a threshold and sidewalls to contain the water, but tile can be set into the shower base. This creates a walk-in shower floor that gently slopes toward the drain to keep water from getting out and into the rest of the bathroom.
