"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

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

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.

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

The average cost for tile installation is about $2,000, with a typical price range between $500 and $6,500. On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $5 and $45 for installation.

Several factors influence the total cost, including:

  • Installation Site: Costs vary for different areas. Common project costs are: kitchen floor ($870–$6,100), countertop or backsplash ($500–$3,000), bathroom floor ($300–$2,400), or shower wall ($225–$2,000).

  • Tile Type and Quality: The material significantly impacts price. For example, standard ceramic or travertine tile can cost about $1 per square foot, while luxury options like marble can be as much as $350 per square foot for the material alone.

  • Project Size and Complexity: The total square footage, the complexity of the pattern, and the shape of the tile (e.g., square, rectangle, hexagon, mosaic) will affect labor and material costs.

  • Site Preparation: The amount of prep work needed, such as removing old tile or installing a new subfloor or backer board, can add to the final price.

  • Tile Characteristics: The tile's durability rating and porosity can also influence the price.

  • Location: Labor rates vary by geographic location.

Porcelain is a relatively affordable, mid-range countertop material. It typically costs between $50 to $70 per square foot.

Compared to quartz, porcelain is slightly more affordable, as quartz generally ranges from $50 to $200 per square foot. However, lower-quality, builder's grade quartz can be similar in price to porcelain.

Compared to granite, the price can be similar, depending on the quality of the stone. While granite slabs can range from $50 to $200 per square foot, you can find lower-end granite in the same price range as porcelain. High-end granites will cost significantly more.

Porcelain is generally more expensive than laminate, acrylic, and ceramic, but less expensive than high-end slate, concrete, and marble. A key benefit is that porcelain does not require sealing, which reduces long-term maintenance costs.
