"Jalal and his team at Stone Box, Inc. did an excellent job installing our backsplash. He guided us through the process and helped us select materials. The project was completed on time and on budget. My wife and I were very happy with the results and would use Stone Box, Inc. again. Highly recommend!"

"Mr. Gomez made our vision of our bathroom remodel come to life. He communicated well and kept us informed on our timeline and what to expect. He completed our project on time and within budget. He is a master craftsman when it comes tile! He kept the workspace clean and tidy and cleaned up at the end of each day. We are thrilled with the result and have the bathroom and shower of our dreams."

"The Empire floor installation crew was fantastic. Everyone in uniform, professional but very friendly. They moved all furniture and put it all back. The tile install was contracted out. Their workmanship was equally excellent. I wish that crew had cleaned up a little better. We had to clean the tiles ourselves when they left. But their craftsmanship was excellent. Every cut is precise and even. Love our new look"

"Very quick to respond to quoate request, and installed carpet the next day. Sales team and installers very professional. Cleanup was OK, but they should have swept and vaccumed around the wall basebords to remove loose fibers"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, but you’ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.

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.

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.

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.
