"Easy process from quote to work complete. The crew worked on a few small projects -- fixed a damaged wall, repaired flooring, and installed a new toilet."

"I had a very positive experience with Matt Gove and company when they remodeled my bathroom a few months ago. The experience made me realize the value in trust. I am not a handy person, the original quote went up in price because I opted to buy equipment and furnishings that required extra labor/parts. Not to mention unforeseen wood damage underneath the floor tile that was discovered upon demolition. Although no one likes to spend more money than they originally intended, Matt, Mike and Jamie explained to me in detail and with patience what some of the issues were and provided options that would help mitigate some of the extra cost. It’s kind of hard to explain, but their input and tone conveyed sincerity and concern for the best outcome of the project. I don’t think you can really ask for more than that. All that aside, I am thrilled with how the project turned out. I think it looks awesome! Matt addressed all my concerns and now I am very proud of my little bathroom."

"Dynamic basements did an outstanding job remodeling my basement. They installed premium flooring, updated the kitchenette with a full sink, dishwasher and countertops. They created a brand new, full bathroom from a cement basement storage area. While I had a general idea of how I wanted things laid out, Chris was invaluable in suggesting improvements while being mindful of my budget. Everyone who sees it, is impressed with the quality of work in the remodel. If you're considering any kind of a basement improvement, I highly recommend you contact Dynamic Basements Plus"

"Nelson did an outstanding job restoring the Marmiline pieces in our bathroom. He was very meticulous and took his time making sure that he removed the stains and scratches in them. He is extremely knowledgeable in tile restoration. Periodically, he would have my husband and I look at his work to see if we were happy with how it was turning out. I highly recommended M&N Stone Restoration and Repair LLC!"

Customers say: True professional

"I hired Michael Datre of Tile Brite to clean my rugs, carpets and tile floors. Michael arrived as scheduled and did an awesome job. He was professional, efficient and did a high quality job. The tile floors have not been this clean since the tiles were installed - especially the greenhouse tile grout was very stained since it has been used as a greenhouse for years. I highly recommend Michael Datre, Tile Brite."

"I am extremely happy with the work Plow & Property Projects did for me. Wes and his crew were all very easy to work with and did the job right the first time. Mainly, they replaced a shower stall I had that had a cracked floor and had leaked into the floor below it (damaging the ceiling). The new tiled shower they put in is amazing and I can’t even see where the ceiling damage was anymore after they fixed it. They also tackled some other things around the house that I’m glad to say will no longer bother me again! I highly recommend them and will go to them again for any future work I may want to do."

"Challenger Construction did a great job from start to finish. I had some minor wood repairs that needed to be done and they took care of that. Plus, part way thru the job I decided to replace an old door leading into the garage and they gave me a quote and put in a beautiful new door, installed and painted. The crew who came out were very courteous and listened to my suggestions and did a great job. whenever I had a question or something new that needed to be done I would contact Leandro and he would get right back to me. Very satisfied with the whole experience"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

A quality shower tiling project is a bathroom upgrade that can increase resale value. Bathroom remodels have the highest return on investments for any home update. Tiling a shower won’t offer the potential 70% ROI that a full bathroom remodel involving upgrading fixtures, installing storage, and a complete room retile will. However, you can expect an average return of 55% to 60% for this refresh.

Grout lines should typically be between 1/8 to 3/16 inch thick. This ensures enough room for the grout to dry properly and makes them wide enough to look clean and professional. If grout lines are too small, it can be easier to see imperfections in the spacing. 

Larger tiles can be difficult to install because they’re heavier and bulkier than their smaller counterparts, which makes them harder to haul around and put in place. Plus, if you don’t install the tiles correctly, they could crack or break. For these reasons, it’s best to hire a professional for large-format tile installation.

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

For best results, you should remove the toilet in a bathroom before removing tile or installing new tile. If you don’t remove the toilet, it will be harder to fully waterproof the tile around the toilet, which could increase the risk of mold growth or plumbing leaks. If you have trouble removing the toilet, hire a plumber to help.
