"The bathroom tile job is very high quality work. Juan corrected some wall imperfections, suggested some aesthetic improvements to the original tile layout, and completed all the work at a good pace. He was able to start within a few days, and kept me apprised of the progress and changes to the schedule. The work is simply beautiful, and I am very pleased with the quality of workmanship and the look of the final result. Juan was polite, considerate and put in honest days' work each day of the job, breaking the work into sensible stages to prevent interfering with or disturbing tiles that needed to set before it was wise to work in an adjacent area. I will definitely call Juan for my next tile job, He was very easy to work with and could not have been nicer."

"We are not done with the work yet, but Derek showed up as promised, gave us a competitive bid and shared substantial expertise even before we have been able to move ahead with the install itself. Helped us get materials ordered at a discount too. Project delayed due to external circumstances (Covid) but hope to resume work soon."

"Olmer communicated very well throughout the project and is very professional. The job was delayed twice as a result of the tile company we selected not meeting its delivery commitment, but Olmer rescheduled with me both times to complete the job quickly. The price was fair (not cheap) and the work is excellent. I would definitely hire Olmer again for the next tile project."

"Jim was incredibly responsive -- emailed/called me back promptly and gave me a very reasonable quote after I sent him a photo of the project. The project was tiling an area in the shower that had to be ripped out to fix a plumbing problem. He was able to do the project two days after I had contacted him. He and his coworker were punctual and did an excellent job. I definitely would hire Jim for future tiling projects."

Customers say: True professional

"Gavin is an absolute lifesaver! Our first contractor completely botched a large-format tile installation, leaving us with a nightmare of horrible lippage. We were desperate, facing a massive demolition of ruined floor. Gavin stepped in without hesitation, handled the demo, leveled the floor, and re-laid the tiles flawlessly. Since then, we’ve hired him for two more projects: a small bathroom and a complex master bath. The master bath had highly technical challenges, including a sloped shower pan, a tub deck that needed to sit perfectly flush with the tub edge, and large-format wall tiles. Gavin mastered every detail with precision. If you have challenging large tiles, complex layouts, or a botched job that needs fixing, call Gavin. He is reliable, highly skilled, and does beautiful work!"

"Victor did an amazing job installing the backsplash in my kitchen, he was very professional, clean, and kept me updated on the process of when the tile would arrive and what paint in the project they had finished. I highly recommended and will definitely be using him again in the future."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.

Yes, it’s always a good idea to keep a box or two of spare tiles after a home renovation project. Tiles can crack from improper installation, heavy foot traffic, and impact from drops. Having some extra tile on hand can make replacement fast, easy, and affordable. Plus, some manufacturers might discontinue particular colors or styles, and slight variations in tile colors between batches could mean mismatched tiles even if your product isn’t discontinued. Having a few spare tiles in storage can help avoid these issues, as well.

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.

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.
