"100% would recommend to anyone looking for tiling services. Emmanuel is professional, communicated promptly, and listened to what I needed for my small flooring project. My floor looks great down to the precision in cuts and grout lines. An experienced perfectionist that lives up to the name of his company. I would definitely rehire for future projects."

"Miguel did a fireplace tile installation for me in my home. I was very impressed with how great it came out and with how quickly Miguel was able to do it. The price was very reasonable compared to other companies I had reached out to. I will be hiring him again soon to complete another installation in my home soon."

"Pilar Bohorquez and his team are masters of their craft, they performed a tile installation at my residence at Solera in the north east side of Bakersfield, from the beginning, Pilar was forthcoming about the time and resources it would take for his team to complete the project. The team was communicative as to their progress throughout the process. Their meticulous planning, attention-to-detail, and precision that went into a project like mine is truly unparalleled. I implore you to give them your business, You won’t regret it, he is a man of his word, I didn't need to sign any contract, from the beginning I knew he could be trusted, a young guy doing his best to satisfy his customers, by performing quality work at a fair cost, I am convinced that in short time his repeat and referral customer ratio will be higher. Shall you need more input on him, just drop me a quick email: [email protected]"

"MGs General Construction is a professional, reliable and fair company. Mario is an excellent craftsman. He was on time to the job, courteous and thorough. There was an inspection made upfront to know what would be need for the job before or arriving. There was suggested material appropriate for my style and theme of my home. They did more then expected and had knowledge to look for issues of an older home, in which I had multiple service calls from another company to try to remedy the problem that Mario was able to pin point and tackle the problem. I recommend MGs to anyone who needs a professional, dependable and knowledgeable general contractor. His pricing was more then fair, and he did a total cleanup after the job was done."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

You can, in theory, tile your fireplace hearth with most tiles. However just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. For example, it’s much better to use unglazed tiles because glazed tiles are more resistant to cracking under extreme heat. Porcelain is more heat-resistant than ceramic, but you can still design the hearth as you like by putting the most heat-resistant tiles directly under the fire and, if it matches your style, add more decorative tiles further from the center of the fire. 

Installing kitchen countertop tiles on a mold and moisture-resistant cement backer board is one of the best options. When fitted correctly on top of a plywood base, it’s stable and long-lasting. Old-fashioned cement board is economical, cuts neatly and easily with a circular or jigsaw, and screws into plywood without any difficulty.

Grout and caulk are commonly used together, especially in bathrooms. Grout goes between the tiles and keeps them sturdy and in place on the walls or floor. Caulk goes in corners or where two different materials meet (like where the bathtub meets the tile) to create a waterproof seal. However, they are not interchangeable—you shouldn't use caulk to adhere tile and shouldn’t use mortar if you need a waterproof seal.

When cleaning porcelain tiles, avoid products that contain ammonia, bleach, and other harsh chemicals. Acid-based cleansers can damage the tile, though you can clean them with a diluted mixture of one-quarter cup white vinegar mixed with one gallon of hot water. It is important always to use a soft-bristled brush or sponge, since hard bristles and steel wool can scratch the tile.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.
