"Ronald knows his Trade well, is prompt, professional, and communicates well. He installed a very intricate 1 inch multicolored glass tile backsplash in our kitchen. We purchased the tile at Lowe’s. Unknown to us there were reviews stating this pattern was very random. When Ronald returned the next day to apply the grout he changed up some of the colored tiles to make it look appealing. It’s a nice upgrade for our kitchen and it looks like it has always been there."

"The Empire floor installation crew was fantastic. Everyone in uniform, professional but very friendly. They moved all furniture and put it all back. The tile install was contracted out. Their workmanship was equally excellent. I wish that crew had cleaned up a little better. We had to clean the tiles ourselves when they left. But their craftsmanship was excellent. Every cut is precise and even. Love our new look"

"Very quick to respond to quoate request, and installed carpet the next day. Sales team and installers very professional. Cleanup was OK, but they should have swept and vaccumed around the wall basebords to remove loose fibers"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Glass tiles are among the most difficult to install. This is because their transparency makes the adhesive visible, and any imperfections on the opposite side are also likely to be visible. Glass tiles also must be handled carefully during installation, as they are prone to scratching. For these reasons, glass tiles often require professional installation to get the most out of their beauty and unique look.

Per the International Code Council, walk-in shower floors should have a minimum slope of 1/4-inch per foot (or a 2% slope) towards the drain. The slope should be no steeper than 1/2-inch per foot (or a 4% slope). This helps safely direct water into the drain rather than all over your bathroom.

Yes, but you’ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.

On average, tiling a bathroom involves about 12 hours of labor, usually spread over two to three days to accommodate prep work and curing times. A professional tiler can often complete the installation in 6 to 8 hours, whereas a DIYer might take 10 to 16 hours. The total project time is influenced by factors like the bathroom layout, tile type, and necessary prep work, such as removing old tile. The process includes specific timelines for different areas; for example, tiling a floor takes about six hours, while a shower area can take six to ten hours. It is essential to allow for adequate curing time—typically 24 hours each—for the mortar, grout, and caulk, which is why the project extends over several days.

Tiling can be DIY with the right tools and skills, but challenges like ensuring evenness and appropriate adhesion often warrant professional handling.
