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."

"Kendall is great. He’s detail oriented and knows his trade well. They tiled my kitchen floor and stove backsplash. The floor looks amazing. We really love it! They created a clean transition between existing wood floor to new kitchen tile. His guys did my backsplash, which is nice too, but the grout line along the edge is not straight, and there’s a tile that is noticeably not aligned with the others. That’s bothersome. His guys did clean up after the end of day, which is nice. The end of project clean up was fine but I still needed to do a lot afterward."

"Gomez Tile Design is absolutely the best for installing tile. I used to flip properties and thus I have extensive experience working with contractors. I can tell you that with Gomez Tile Design, Samuel and Abel, were always on time, super conscientious, discarded all the waste and left the job super clean. In addition, their workmanship is superior, from the way they layout the tile to the grout lines. I totally recommend them if you are looking for perfection."

"We couldn’t be happier with the work done by Rene and his team. They installed a new backsplash in our kitchen and the quality exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail was outstanding. They were thorough with the cleanup after the job was done, which made the entire experience even better. It’s clear they take great pride in their work snd care about their customers. I recommend R.G. Tile to anyone looking for high-quality tile work and exceptional service."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can tile over existing shower tiles, but it's better to remove the old tiles first for the best results. Tiling over existing tiles requires a clean, level surface and proper adhesion. If the old tiles are in good condition, you can roughen the surface to improve adhesion. However, removing the old tiles ensures a smoother, longer-lasting finish and prevents potential issues down the line.

The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic. 

For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.

You have creative freedom when it comes to your tile trim. If, however, you are considering skipping tile trim, please think twice about that. It is good practice to install tile trim, whether on walls or flooring. Think, too, about the aesthetic you are going for and choose a trim type and color that will help enhance the space.

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn’t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.

If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it’s in good enough condition to lay new tile.
