"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"

"Justin and his crew did a great job with our shower and floors. They did such a great job we asked them to come back for unplanned backsplash install. Both times Justin got us on his schedule very quickly. The crew came on time every day and did a great job cleaning up after themselves. I would highly recommend Top Notch to family and friends."

"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!!!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.

When working on your bathroom floor tiling, you should always tile the floor first and then refit the toilet afterward. This has both practical and visual advantages—the tile will have a better seal, and the installation will look cleaner.

On the other hand, when you try to cut the tiles to fit around the toilet, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. It’s a lot more work, it’s hard to be precise, and mistakes or miscalculations can lead to future moisture damage to the tiling, grout, and subfloor.

Tiles last for around 100 years or more. Tiles on backsplashes can last even longer since they’re less likely to crack under foot traffic or from accidental drops, but even tile in high-traffic flooring can last a century or more with proper installation and upkeep. Porcelain tiles are denser and stronger than standard ceramic tiles, so they’ll last longer, often pushing past the 100-year mark.

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.

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.
