"We were having trouble getting a tile guy out to our house to do a small repair. Jose came out and did a very good job and I was appreciative of his coming out for a small repair. I would recommend him for a big or small job."

"This project was to finish install of a new shower replacing former nasty tub. Derek's crew were excellent technicians, and I am confident we now have a high quality, nice looking shower. The work involved a lot of detail/bullnose around 2 windows and 3 niches, beautifully mitered corners. Also, a pebble tile floor was hand placed so the pebbles were level to each other leaving no low spots to puddle, a detail I hadn't expected. The same crew also installed a glass block wall which had a slight hiccup during the job; they came back at the end of the day and worked late to fix it and make it right."

"Adam was EXTREMELY professional. He was right on time, very knowledgeable and a gentleman. Adam provided requested quotation and insurance documentation right away. His work included cutting and installing new backer board and waterproofing membrane, tile setting, grout and caulking; all this in tandem with plumbers repiping work. The price was very fair and my shower/bath tile job looks great! I would rehire A.K. Tile in an instant."

"Olmer communicated very well throughout the project and is very professional. The job was delayed twice as a result of the tile company we selected not meeting its delivery commitment, but Olmer rescheduled with me both times to complete the job quickly. The price was fair (not cheap) and the work is excellent. I would definitely hire Olmer again for the next tile project."

"Victor did an amazing job installing the backsplash in my kitchen, he was very professional, clean, and kept me updated on the process of when the tile would arrive and what paint in the project they had finished. I highly recommended and will definitely be using him again in the future."

"Victor is outstanding! Meticulous work, very dependable and I LOVE my new tile. He stepped in after a long project- revamped the pan, placed tile and grouted. From start to finish perfect job. I would highly recommend Victor and his crew. Excellent experience!"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

Ceramic tile adheres best with premixed adhesive or mortar. If you’re installing the tile in an area with moisture, such as a bathroom or kitchen, opt for waterproof adhesive, and if you choose mortar, make sure it’s thick because that is the easiest to work with and ensures the tiles will sit flat.

The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they’re easier to install than small tiles—the job is faster and simpler when there’s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they’re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

The underlayment determines a ceramic tile’s sturdiness, and a cement board or backer board works best. Be sure to tape the joints when using these materials, and consider laying it on top of a layer of thin-set for more stability.
