"**Above and Beyond Kitchen Contractors – Absolutely Outstanding!** We recently had the pleasure of working with Ernest who is the owner of *Above and Beyond* for our kitchen remodel, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and above all, the craftsmanship is exceptional. The team was not only punctual and respectful, but they truly listened to our needs and vision. The quality of the work speaks for itself. Our kitchen has been completely transformed into a space that is both beautiful and functional. They really did go *Above and Beyond* in every sense of the phrase! Our home is a 1733 antique so it presented unique challenges. When they took the kitchen down to the studs we discovered that some major reinforcement needed to be done which they accomplished in record time to keep us on schedule. Wow, and at a fair price too! How often can you say that! A true pleasure to work with Ernest and all his crew!"

"I needed to have the old flooring removed and the new flooring put down. They team was very professional. They realized the subflooring was messed up in a section and made sure to stop and communicate so the job can be doone correctly. I appreciated that factor and was able to approve a replacement of the messed up board the great thing was they were still able to finish the job in the time frame they originally stated! I plan to use them for all jobs moving forward. Priced fair,quality work, and friendly and professional!"

Backsplash Installation FAQs, answered by experts

Updating your backsplash without removing the tile is possible in a couple of different ways. First, you can remove the old grout and replace it with new grout to give your backsplash a fresh look. You can also change the grout color, which can have a surprisingly large impact on the final appearance of the backsplash. Finally, you can paint the original tile to totally change the look of the backsplash without removing it.

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.

Yes, you can tile over existing shower tiles, but it's better to remove the old tiles first for the best results. Tiling over existing tiles requires a clean, level surface and proper adhesion. If the old tiles are in good condition, you can roughen the surface to improve adhesion. However, removing the old tiles ensures a smoother, longer-lasting finish and prevents potential issues down the line.

No, painting shower tile doesn’t last and is better reserved as a temporary solution to refreshing the look of old tiles. Shower tile paint may last around one to five years, depending on how well you prep the surface before painting, the type of paint you use, the type of tile in your shower, and how often you use the shower.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.
