"I hired Cielo to remodel a small bathroom. On the plus side, they did the job at the price they quoted and I am generally happy with the way it looks. The job was finished in January and I waited 8 months to write review because I wanted to see how the work held up. So far it’s fine. The tile separated from the base in the shower and on the backsplash. I’ll have to put some caulk in there. And there’s a big floor to ceiling crack in the wall where they repaired the wall near the shower. But otherwise it’s fine. On the minus side, the whole process was a pretty bad experience and a lot of the work was shoddy, unsupervised as far as I could tell, and had to be done a second time after I inspected it. The bid process was very hard sell “I’m not leaving until you sign.” I’m a woman and they insisted a man be present for the conversation. They bid a lot higher than the 3 other people I talked to, but convinced me to go with them based on the workers comp insurance, reviews, portfolio, etc. I thought for the extra I was signing up for higher quality, less stress experience. I was wrong. The first and biggest problem was the shower tile, pic below. I got it from a vendor they recommended. I came home and could see the bullnose edges didn’t match, a bit grey compared to the white subway tile. I pointed out the mistake and they agreed to remove the bullnose, get the correct bullnose and re-install. I came home and the guy had reinstalled a new box of the grayish bullnose. Same mistake twice. Not inspecting the tile or really paying attention to what he was doing. At this point we find out that the vendor is out of the correct tile and no more can be had. The tile company was nice about it, agreed to supply new tile that did have matching bullnose. But we stopped work and I argued with Cielo for a couple of weeks over who was going to pay for the repeat labor. My position was that the tile guy failed to inspect the tile and installed it twice, the second time after he was aware of the problem. Also, I felt like there should have been some professional supervision of the work. It was stressful, but in the end they did not charge me extra for the labor involved in doing the job 3 times. I would say they treated me fairly. That was really the worst of it, but it was a stressful couple of weeks. Other things- they declined to install the mirror, they felt that was outside the scope of their bid and it was custom cut so it had to be installed by the glazier. OK. So I asked shouldn’t we do the electrical work first so the electrician doesn’t have to work in a tiny outlet hole. They said no, mirror first. So I had it installed. And of course their electrician came and while installing the outlet cracked my custom mirror. I bought a bigger outlet and covered most of the crack, but there’s a nickel sized defect I can still see that bugs me. Towel bar and fixtures - all fell off the wall in a couple of days. They just put heavy metal into drywall without using drywall screws. They came back and re-installed. The sink leaked. I’d come home to a puddle every day. They fixed it maybe 5 times before finally replacing a piece of pipe. The handles on the cabinets and the shower ball were not installed level. These guys don’t own a level. The shower bar is subtle. You have to be OCD to see it, but once seen can’t unsee it. The cabinet handles, however, are really crooked and unevenly spaced. It was as half-assed as it could have possible been done. Can't be fixed because holes are drilled into the vanity. One more thing, they ruined my carpet. There is a black spot trail all the way from the front door, up the stairs in the hallway and in my bedroom. They didn’t bother to put down protection. I tried professional steam cleaning but it didn’t help. I have to completely replace the flooring. Picture below. The carpet is like this from the bathroom all the way out the door. The ceiling vent. There was a new one, but they re-installed the old one and had to come back and re-do. I think maybe this job was a little beneath what they usually do. They thought they could just phone it in and I’d be none the wiser. Maybe because I’m a woman. But the half-ass work I think ended up costing them a lot of extra money because everything had to be done several times. They probably should not have taken the job, as they clearly didn’t have the manpower or inclination to supervise it. I think they are used to higher end clients and that’s probably where their energies were focused. I also think they are flippers- the goal being to pass a 30 second second walk-through, not long-lasting quality work. So if the towel bars fall off in 48 hours it's no big deal to them. It all turned out Ok in the end- I like my bathroom. I’m going to bring in a handy-man to fix things. I think everybody has stressful construction experiences, and maybe this is all very typical. But I wouldn’t use them again."

"Granted, the work isn't completely finished, but I wanted to update my review to post how impressed I am. Danny Gold and his crew just completed the tile install phase. They did an extremely complex "wood" tile pattern which looks beautiful in photos and EVEN better in reality. In addition, the bulk of the work and hassles and noise was done remotely while I was out of town. Luis was great an explaining things and even though I wasn't there, I felt everything would be handled with the utmost care and attention to details. Talk about trustworthy!!! Such a gift in a contractor. The tile work cost me a bit more than I expected, but the work was well worth it. They are handling all the extremely annoying inspections (City of Santa Monica slows everything so much!) My shower glass guy was super impressed with the precision of the bathroom. "Like laser crafted" In all, HIGHLY recommend their work!!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

You can lay tile directly on a plywood countertop, but if it’s a high-traffic surface in a kitchen, it’s better to add a moisture-resistant base. Plywood is susceptible to moisture, so if dampness seeps through from the surface around the sink or where you prep food, it can cause the plywood to warp, leading to grout damage, cracked tiles, or mold growth under the surface. 

When considering the types of grout for your project, unsanded grout is the best choice for penny tile. Unsanded grout can fit better into narrow spaces, like those between the small penny tiles, and it’s easier to smooth out for a seamless finish. However, if you’re unsure, check with a tile installation pro to determine which grout is best for your specific project.

Yes, unfortunately, it is normal for wall and floor tiles to crack, especially when you drop heavy items on tiled floors or place heavy objects on them. Tiles are also more susceptible to cracking when ceramic tiles designed for walls are installed on floors, as these are often not strong enough to handle heavy loads from foot traffic and furniture. Similarly, tiles that are installed incorrectly, lack adequate subflooring, or have other installation problems are prone to cracking. To avoid these problems and the inevitable repair and replacement costs they bring, always hire a professional for tile work and follow best practices for installation.

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.
