"William Kopp from Epic Tile did an excellent job redoing our bathroom floor. He was punctual, professional, and meticulous in his work. His pricing was fair, and the quality of his craftsmanship exceeded our expectations. He kept the workspace neat and tidy, cleaning up thoroughly afterward. We highly recommend Billy from Epic Tile for anyone looking for quality work at a reasonable price!"

"Did a great job, floors came out great.Were very accommodating when we had to reschedule several times. My only quibble was that at the very end there were a lot of handprints on doorknobs, etc. Would recommend them though"

"Javier was great! Very responsive, quickly fit us into his schedule, promptly showed up each day as expected and completed the work in a timely manner! We absolutely love the work he did... actually better than the original job that was completed in our great room! We had asked for 1/16 gaps between our tiles and noticed the original job was about 1/8 gaps... Javier delivered exactly what we expected!!! Would definitely use him again for other tile work!!!"

"I wanted the tile laid a certain way, they wouldn't do it- claiming it would void the warranty (?). I challenged that, then they told me there were not enough tiles and it would take a week to get more. I showed them the pattern would work. They said to call my salesman, which I did and he was less than receiving who said he would have his supervisor call me- who never did. Because I had an out of town guest coming, I gave in. Tile looks good, but it wasn't what I wanted."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

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.

Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.

It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.

You can, in theory, tile your fireplace hearth with most tiles. However just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. For example, it’s much better to use unglazed tiles because glazed tiles are more resistant to cracking under extreme heat. Porcelain is more heat-resistant than ceramic, but you can still design the hearth as you like by putting the most heat-resistant tiles directly under the fire and, if it matches your style, add more decorative tiles further from the center of the fire.
