"I would highly recommend CalWest Tile and Josh West. Josh repaired our tile after a previous contractor did not seal a crack in the foundation. Due to the ineptness of my original contractor, grout and tile were coming up after less than a year. Josh came in, explained repair process, provided a fair quote, and did an absolutely amazing job on repair. Josh and his crew were extremely polite, professional, and knowledgeable regarding work that needed to be done. I could not have been more impressed with the overall service. My only regret is that I did not know Josh prior to the original job, as I'm sure I would not have needed any repairs!"

"After getting a number of quotes for doing the tile in our bathroom, we decided to go with Jose and JC Tile, and now that the job is complete, I can say it was the right decision for us. Communication is very important to me, and Jose always responded in a timely manner via phone and text message throughout the entire process. In my opinion and from a previous remodel experience, it is important for as many details to be discussed and noted prior to approving any contract. We agreed on work to be provided, and they surpassed my expectations. In addition to Jose, Norman and Randy were the crew members on this project, and my family appreciates their professionalism, work quality and in asking questions when it came down to decision making time for tile lines and options available. My kids liked everyone, which is unusual for strangers who come over to the house. The whole JC Tile team was flexible and worked with me on making everything discussed come to fruition."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.

Tile will almost always last longer than laminate flooring, regardless of the type of tile installed. Porcelain tile can last for 75 years or more with proper care, and even less durable ceramic tile will last for 60 years or more, provided they’re installed by a tile professional. On the other hand, laminate flooring has an average lifespan of around 20 years, and you might only get 10 to 15 years out of low-cost laminate flooring. As such, tile will add far more value to your home than laminate.

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. 

The rule tells you how to cut tile to install it in a corner. The 3/4/5 rule recommends that you should have 3 feet across on one straight line, four feet on the other perpendicular line, and 5 feet of length from the end of one of the lines to the other. You’re making a right triangle with the tile, and the hypotenuse (the line across from where the 3-foot lie and 4-foot line meet) should be 5 feet long.

You can put hot pans on porcelain countertops. Porcelain is highly resistant to heat—it’s manufactured at around 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit, so it can withstand a ton of heat without cracking or damaging. Even though the high heat is a plus, you should still be cautious when putting hot surfaces on porcelain countertops.
