"We hired Emmanuel and his crew to demo our shower/tub and install new tile and fixtures. He literally went above and beyond! The quality of his craftsmanship is hard to find. He finished the job in less than 4 days. Always showed up on time and he even went the extra mile by floating the nearby wall that a previous contractor had messed up and installing a dimmer switch (which we didn’t ask for- but was a very nice surprise!). We already got a quote for our son’s shower and will absolutely be hiring him for our other two showers. You will not regret hiring Emmanuel for your remodel needs!"

"I reached out for a tile floor repair and Miguel responded the same day. He came out to look over the repair I needed and gave me an estimate that evening. The repair was completed in a day and I was very satisfied with the result. I thought his pricing was reasonable and I was very happy with how the repair came out. I was also impressed with how quickly he was able to complete the repair. No regrets hiring and recommending Miguel for another tile repair."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, provided you aren’t installing drywall over it. But you can skim coat it, apply new tile right on top, paint it, or stencil it. For more budget- and DIY-friendly options, you can install beadboard or apply decals. Just make sure that the current tiles are in good condition and prepped well for the paint or adhesive to stick.

Porcelain tiles can last 60 years or longer. With high-quality tiles and proper installation, your porcelain tiles may even outlive you, making them well worth the initial investment.

To help your porcelain tiles last longer, you should clean and maintain them regularly. You don’t need any harsh chemicals to get the job done. Rather, use a cloth, hot water, and mild detergent. And don’t forget to learn how to clean floor tile grout, as that’s just as important as tile maintenance.

The best paints for shower tiles include epoxy, latex, or acrylic. Ideally, you should look for paints that are waterproof and mildew-resistant if you plan to paint shower or other bathroom tiles. You can even find waterproof paints made specifically for tiled surfaces, which will be the best option for shower tile paint that lasts as long as possible.

Yes, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.
