"It went well! Brian is detail oriented and that is what we were looking for. You may live with your tile work for many years, it is nice to know that the longer you live with it, the more you will like it. For our project Brian charged an hourly rate. Any planning, materials and design work is best taken care of before work starts. We provided all materials for our project. Brian takes pride in his work and good work can't be rushed. If you are looking to get something done as fast as possible, find another installer."

"Richard did an excellent job installing tile floor in our bathroom. He was very responsive in his communication, gave a good quote and was able to complete the job quickly. He did the demo, removed vanity, all the tile work, and put everything back together. His tile work is flawless, really shows his experience and expertise. We had herringbone mosaic tile sheets and all the edges look perfect and everything seamless."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

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.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

You have creative freedom when it comes to your tile trim. If, however, you are considering skipping tile trim, please think twice about that. It is good practice to install tile trim, whether on walls or flooring. Think, too, about the aesthetic you are going for and choose a trim type and color that will help enhance the space.

Silicone caulk shouldn’t be used in place of grout because each material serves its own purpose. Thanks to its flexibility, silicone caulk is good for sealing around the perimeter of tiled floors, where movement and expansion might occur. However, grout is more durable, making it a better option for the joints in between tiles, which need to withstand constant weight and foot traffic.

You can let the tile sit without grout. Don’t panic if there’s a delay between installing the tiles and grouting. A substantial stoppage isn't a problem, provided you keep the tile surface clear of dust and debris. Also, avoid walking over less stable ungrouted floor tiles as they are more prone to premature cracking and shifting.
