"These are good guys. Very responsive and professional. We are very happy with rhe work which was completed in a professional, workman like and timely manner. We had a hard time finding a tiler that could handle installing glass tiles and making the diagonal cuts needed. We were so lucky we found Fred. We'll definitely use them for other projects. Highly recommended."

"Steve recently completed a remodel of two bathrooms and a kitchen for me and each space turned out better than I could have hoped, I especially love how the custom tile pattern looks in the master bathroom and all of the amazing storage space I have now. Steve and his crew did a fantastic job and all of the finishes turned out immaculate. I’m so happy with the final results!"

"They were on time and worked hard all day. There was one mistake made. They knew I was getting a new hood vent and the final measurements did not take into consideration that the new hood had different measurements than the old one. A new quartz backsplash had to be fabricated. They completed the project in one day. There was an issue with my flooring that I'm still waiting to be resolved. I don't know yet if I would hire them again."

Customers say: Quick response

"I was very pleased with this contractor, his crew, and the work performed. The contractor was responsive, punctual, and worked around adverse weather conditions. His employees were polite, friendly, and left the work area spotless upon job completion. All material was stained before installation and screwed into place, guaranteeing a finished product that is solid and well protected. This contractor provided an estimate within 7 days of initial inspection and completed the deck project in 2 weeks from start of construction! I have never had or heard of this type of service from any general contractor in the area. We will definitely use him again for any size project that comes along."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of bathroom tile can be 50 years or more, depending on proper installation and regular maintenance. A well-done tile job, whether it's a new installation or a retiling project, can last for many decades. To lengthen the life of your tile, it's best to have it installed by a professional and to perform regular maintenance. This includes routine cleaning, resealing, and regrouting as needed. With proper care, you can expect your tile to last 10 years or more before needing major repairs or retiling, especially in high-traffic areas where tiles can wear out more quickly.

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.

It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

Whether you use a brush or roller depends on the size, shape, and amount of tiles. Rollers are easier to maneuver over large areas and can apply a more even coat of paint in a shorter time frame with no visible brushstrokes. Brushes are best for precision work, particularly in very small areas. If you don't want visible brushstrokes on your painted tiles, you can paint details with small foam brushes instead of bristled paint brushes.
