"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."

"I recently had a kitchen backsplash installed by MFX Tile. From the very first interaction, Miguel was incredibly professional and responsive, answering all my questions and providing a free estimate that was both fair and detailed. What impressed me most was the total transparency regarding cost and timeline. Miguel provided a clear quote upfront with no hidden fees, and he stuck to the schedule exactly as promised. The craftsmanship is truly top-notch."

"Amboy Korling and his assistant were extremely polite and professional.  They did nice work, particularly on the door frame, where looks are critical.  They arrived at 8 am, with materials, and set up their table saw on the patio. They plugged it in and began work.  They were finished at about 4 pm, on a job that could easily have taken 2 days.  
They replaced the rotted header for the door with a nice piece of 4x4 lumber.  They replaced the casing for the door, making sure that the original door would still fit.  It looks great and all we need is to have it painted.
They cut and installed extensions for about 40 rafters under the eaves.  The original rafters were rounded at the end so that they would not take a gutter.  The extensions will allow us to get well-placed gutters.  Our present gutters were installed with a crude system that led to the dry rot problem.
The original plan had been for them to add a downspout in the middle of the gutter on one side of the house, but after looking at the relatively simple installation of the gutters they left that out, and cut $200 from the price.  However, they tilted the gutter so that it would drain to the far end: if the original installer had done this, the dry rot wouldn't have happened to begin with.
We're now on our way to having the woodwork of the entire house painted, and new gutters installed, but those are tasks for other contractors.  
This was a great repair to something that I had despaired of getting fixed.

"Eric Moser and his team did an amazing job transforming my steep, unusable driveway into a much more functional space. Now, I can park my cars easily and approach my garage with better access. They also installed a channel drain, which has helped with water management. Their professionalism, skill, and attention to detail made a huge difference. Highly recommend!"

"We contacted them one day and thought we were not going to hear back but when they returned our call, they came over the same day.  He quickly diagnosed and repaired the problems and was very nice to work with.  Additionally, his prices were amazing.  We will definitely be calling on him again."

"We discussed designs for our family room. She was easy to work with and everything was done through email. We sent Jill details about the room and photos. She understood things well, sent us back ideas and a few room plans. We didn’t use her ideas but they were valuable for us for other perspectives. The deal was exactly what we expected."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, it would be best if you waterproofed your shower walls before tiling. The cement backing board behind the tile is not waterproof; it’s only water-resistant. On top of your tile backing board, be sure to use a waterproof shower membrane before you start installing your shower tiles.

Yes, it’s possible to cut tile without a wet saw; instead, you can use an angle grinder, a glass cutter, a snap cutter, tile nippers, or a rotary tool with a tile-cutting blade. A manual tile cutter or snap cutter works well for the larger tiles that wet saws are typically used for, while smaller projects might just require nippers or a glass cutting wheel. If you’re working with large quantities of tile, however, power tools are best.

Yes, you can install a backsplash directly onto drywall, provided the wall is properly prepped, clean, and dry. For best results, especially in kitchen areas, your walls should be made of moisture-resistant drywall, often called green board. If your current wall isn't moisture-resistant, it's recommended to replace it before installing the backsplash. For even greater protection against water damage, you can remove the existing drywall and install a tile backer board or cement board instead. While properly installed standard drywall is typically strong enough to support a backsplash, some local building codes may require water-resistant materials in kitchen areas, so it's a good idea to check.

Here’s another instance of where the answer is you could, but that doesn’t mean you should. Yes, part of the issue is getting the drywall to stay in place on the tiles, and it’s understandable that screws will crack the tiles and cause them to crumble. That’s why it’s a much better idea to screw drywall into studs, not your porcelain or ceramic tile. But aside from issues with attaching the drywall, it’s also about ensuring a smooth application without trapping moisture inside.

Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.
