"I recently had my shower tile replaced and couldn’t be happier with the results. The craftsmanship was outstanding — every tile was laid with precision and the finished product looks completely clean and polished. You can tell real care went into the work. Beyond the quality of the install itself, the team was an absolute pleasure to work with. They were professional from start to finish and showed up when they said they would. Communication was easy and straightforward — no hassle, no surprises. If you’re looking for a tile installer you can trust to do the job right and treat your home with respect, look no further. Highly recommend!"

"Nixon responded quickly and was able to install a new back storm door for us. The only problem is that it looks nicer than the front door now! :) Excellent work! Hired him to do several projects at Mom's now!"

"My old shower was a tired, leaky mess. The weak water pressure made showering a frustrating experience. I wanted a modern shower that was both functional and luxurious, but I wasn't sure where to begin. David greeted me and patiently listened to my needs. He understood my desire for a powerful showerhead, and easy-to-clean surfaces. The design suggestions were perfect. He recommended a rainfall showerhead for a spa-like experience, beautiful tile with built-in shelves for storage, and a sleek glass door to create a more open feel. He helped me pick out gorgeous fixtures that matched the overall design. The installation process with Gallery was first-rate. The installers were courteous and professional. They explained everything they were doing and ensured the new shower system was functioning before leaving. The powerful water pressure is amazing, and the beautiful design makes showering a truly enjoyable experience. Thank you, Gallery Kitchens & Baths, for giving my shower the power and style upgrade it desperately needed!"

"Miguel and his team know what they are doing. They did everything right with our kitchen floors and bathroom. They redid everything in the bathroom, from walls, floors, plumbing, electrical, and shower. Miguel is an expert and was able to anwser all my questions. He would call back when he saw my missed call. The bathroom is upgraded and my wife and I are enjoying it. I will recommend Miguel and his team for anything you need done."

"I hired Adam and his team to frame and install my new kitchen including framing out a new pantry in a very difficult space as well as install a slider and reconfigure some walls. I am so pleased with the result. His attention to detail and work ethic are a rare find. I would recommend anyone needing any carpentry, framing, windows and doors work to contact him, you will not be disappointed."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

Many homeowners have successfully retiled a bathroom themselves. It can be a challenging but rewarding process, but it’s best for someone who already has at least intermediate DIY skills.

Like any painted surface, tile paint can peel and chip over time. However, tile paint can become especially susceptible to peeling during periods of high humidity. Other sources of excess moisture will also cause tile paint to peel faster than normal. And if the tiles are in a high-traffic area, like the entryway floor, tile paint will chip and peel faster.

Per the International Code Council, walk-in shower floors should have a minimum slope of 1/4-inch per foot (or a 2% slope) towards the drain. The slope should be no steeper than 1/2-inch per foot (or a 4% slope). This helps safely direct water into the drain rather than all over your bathroom.

While you shouldn’t use thinset mortar on its own as a floor leveler, it can work alongside other products to help level floors. For instance, you could start with a self-leveling compound, let that dry, then apply backer board with thinset mortar to help fully even out the floors ahead of laying tile.
