"We hired Juan for our kitchen backsplash and floor tile installation on our kitchen upgrade project. We ended up hiring him for cabinet, countertop, and range hood installation, too! Juan and his team were absolutely wonderful to work with. He was prompt, professional, and an excellent communicator. His work and commitment to getting it right came through every day, and he has a very collaborative style. His advice gave us confidence in the decisions we were making about materials and installation. Because our home is 100 years old and has many quirks, we had a few surprises along the way. Juan didn't hesitate to offer up solutions. (He put in 6 shims to level our window sill! Something we didn't even know we needed). Our kitchen turned out better than we could have imagined, and it's because of Juan's commitment to excellence (and patience with us!) that it turned out so well."

"Al Navarro has done many jobs for us spanning over 20 years. He renovated nearly every room in our previous home and is well on his way to doing the same in our current home. This most recent project was to install nearly 1300 sq feet of luxury vinyl tile flooring over existing ceramic tile... He first spent days applying multiple coats (with smoothing) of a thin mortar over the tile regions to establish a smooth and level base. He also removed all the existing baseboard. On top of the mortar surface he placed a layer of thin plastic sheeting (flooring supplier recommended) and then carefully and methodically laid all the vinyl flooring... He set up his saw arrangement in our garage and custom cut many of the floor pieces to ensure the best look for the new floor... Al is an artist with tools and he even went so far as to use a special saw to cut neatly beneath the door jambs such that the new flooring went under the jamb rather than just up to it... He also did custom work around showers and bath tubs, and around doorways, to offer the best looking transition from the floor to those structures... He then purchased and painted new wide baseboards at his facility and brought them to our home to be cut and installed with great precision. As he has done with all our previous projects, Al did a masterful job of installing this beautiful luxury vinyl flooring over a large portion of our home. We couldn't be happier and we highly recommend Al for this type type of home improvement and for just about any other home interior type project folks might be looking to accomplish!!!!"

"From the moment that S&L Remodeling came to our home, we felt comfortable with their estimates and suggestions for our master bathroom remodel. And decided to give them a try! They worked with us in making our dream bathroom come true and offered great recommendations on tile, flooring, and vanity choices. We were quoted a 4-week project, and they got it done in 2! And the best part? The previous homeowners hired cheap contractors and we found many hidden no-nos that S&L fixed. They did not skip corners - and gave quality work from start to finish. From the tiling to the vanity installation, everything was beautifully done. We really enjoyed working with Al and the S&L crew and amazed at what they accomplished and love how our Master bathroom turned out. Looking forward to working on remodeling our 2nd bathroom and kitchen in the future with them"

"Perfectly! Roger is very easy to work with and completely open to the requests and ideas of the clients. The job was bid accurately and completed in a competent and timely manner. His carpenters are exceptionally skilled and in addition have very good taste in terms of how things should be done to bring about the desired effect. This job consisted of removal of old tile, tearing out carpeting, redoing a shower, and installing large carrara marble tiles with heat under them. They installed a free standing stone tub as well. All perfectly executed and artistically installed. My wife and I could not be more pleased with the result. It was a pleasure to work with Roger and his crew and he is definitely on my "will call again list" for any future work. We cannot recommend him highly enough."

"I’m so impressed with how our kitchen remodel came together. The countertops have a great finish and feel like they're built to last, and the backsplash gives the space a clean, and refreshed vibe. The new cabinets are both stylish and super practical, we finally have the storage we so badly needed. The vinyl flooring is one of my favorite parts, it's really sleek and compliments the cabinetry as well. Zamir and his crew were a pleasure to work with. Very professional, efficient, and focused on getting every detail right."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Bathrooms are naturally moisture-rich environments, so choose a durable, water-resistant tile for your tub surround. Porcelain and ceramic are two popular options that are also quite affordable. Glass is another good option that’s also low-maintenance—you just need a glass cleaner like you would use on the bathroom mirror. Natural stone tile is porous, but it’s still a viable option if you choose it in a glazed version.

Replacing tile flooring can take a few days for a pro, but larger rooms will need more time. It takes eight to 12 hours for a tiling pro to remove old grout and tiles across 100 square feet. Then, it will take about four hours to prep the subfloor for tiles and another eight to 10 hours for a pro to install new tiles. Your tiling project may take up to a week, depending on the size of the room.

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

Penny tile should be sealed to protect the grout from moisture and keep stains from damaging the look of the tile. If penny tile is in a humid or high-traffic area, like a bathroom, kitchen, or entryway, it needs sealant. Any type of tile and grout is best maintained with a sealant reapplied by a pro every one to two years.

For best results, you should remove the toilet in a bathroom before removing tile or installing new tile. If you don’t remove the toilet, it will be harder to fully waterproof the tile around the toilet, which could increase the risk of mold growth or plumbing leaks. If you have trouble removing the toilet, hire a plumber to help.
