"Raul was able to expertly remove a soap dispenser from our 1960â s tiled shower wall and replace the space with reclaimed vintage tile I found online. The match was perfect and he finished with sealing all the tile to create a water protective barrier."

"We arranged with Wade for the work we needed done. He was very professional and easy to work with. His tile installer, Don, came out and finished up some stone work for us and then put up the glass tile we had purchased for our backsplash. He did an INCREDIBLE job. He had tons of experience, was on time and worked at a good pace. He had everything finished in 2-1/2 days. I canâ t say enough wonderful things about this experience and would definitely recommend and use this company again."

"I hired Manuel of D Soto Stone to remodel 3 bathrooms, kitchen, living room, the den/office, laundry Room, & my bar. They were outstanding from start to finish & the tile work fit & finish was impeccable. Manuel was very professional, respectful, & attentive to every detail. He coordinated everything and worked seamlessly with my cabinet makers, shower door and mirror installers, plumber and electrician. They made most of the remodel while I was out of state & I felt perfectly secure & grew a trust with Manuel. They brought my vision to life while offering creative, cost-effective solutions to challenges that popped up. The project was completed on time and within budget. They kept workspaces clean and organized every single day. Working with Manuel was a great experience and was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process, providing daily updates and quickly responding to any questions I had. I highly recommend Manuel of D Soto Stone & would definitely hire him again."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.

It’s not necessarily normal for tiles to lift, although it’s one of the common issues people may have with their tile flooring. Tiles correctly installed by pros with expansion joints should not lift over time. However, if the installation was done poorly, you might see tiles tenting or lifting as the house settles. This is more common in high-moisture areas with extreme temperatures.

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.
