"CRS painting did an A+ job with my ceiling and front door. I had a peeling skim coat issue that no one wanted to help fix but CRS fixed it perfectly in two days. He also stained my front door to look brand new again! They were responsive, courteous of the furniture and left everything perfect!"

"Manny (BHC, LLC) did an excellent job on our bathroom remodel. We’ve used Manny/BHC for several projects over the years, and we’ve been very pleased every time—this one was no exception. Communication was clear, he was reliable, and he handled issues quickly and professionally. The workmanship was high quality, especially the tile work and waterproofing (Schluter system), and the finished bathroom looks great. This was a full gut, but they encapsulated the work area, protected the floors, and kept dust from spreading through the house. They also cleaned the job site daily. The crew worked 12 days straight to demo and completely rebuild the bathroom, which minimized the impact on our family. Fair, transparent, and easy to work with. Highly recommend."

Ceramic Tile 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). 

Porcelain countertops have a fairly long life span, sometimes lasting for decades. Depending on how much wear and tear you put your countertops through, it could last 25 to 50 years. But be warned, porcelain is also prone to cracking, so as long as you take good care of it, you’ll have those countertops looking brand new for years to come.

There are several tools that you will use together to install tiles. Four of the most basic tools needed in tile installation include a notched trowel for applying tile adhesive, a tile cutter or saw for cutting tiles to size, tile spacers for creating the appropriate amount of space between tiles, and a grout float for applying grout.

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.

The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they’re easier to install than small tiles—the job is faster and simpler when there’s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they’re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.
