"We brought Fernando in to re-do our deck. His workmen were professional and quick, and his price was very reasonable. We liked his work so much, we also hired him to redo a bathroom and complete a bunch of projects around the house. Update: our work got interrupted by a pandemic (!), but just last week, Fernando and his men returned to finish all the odds and ends. We are very happy with the result and would definitely hire them again for future projects."

"I hired Vinny to redo a backsplash installation that was botched by a previous contractor. Vinny is a pleasure to work with and a true professional at his craft. I appreciate his attention to detail. The backsplash he installed turned out beautifully. I will absolutely use Vinny for any additional tile work going forward, and I highly recommend him."

"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 and his crew did an outstanding job gutting and rebuilding a very challenging bathroom in our house, which was built in the 1930s. We are very happy with the craftsmanship and the price, and it was a pleasure to work with them on this project from start to finish. I highly recommend this excellent contractor."

"Joel and Luis were very responsive and professional and did an outstanding job!! They patched multiple holes and cracks and then were able to match paint color in multiple rooms - one cannot see the old vs new paint because they did this so well. This enabled us to save costs as they did not have to paint entire walls and ceilings. We had about a dozen misc small jobs and they tackled them all (including a severe clogged vanity sink). They also patched/ painted exterior stucco walls and repaired a broken chair. Highly recommended and very trustworthy."

Customers say: Quick response

"We hired Lasting Strength to tear down and build a new deck. Adam and his team of Marco and Danny were great to work with. They showed up on time, listened to our requests, and came in on budget. We also had them do various other odd jobs including re-grouting the shower tiles. All their work was expertly and beautifully done. And Adam was exceptional in finding solutions to challenging projects. We highly recommend them."

"My thanks to all of the people who already wrote reviews of Marble Effects. Their good reviews made me consider, and then hire Marble Effects. It was a good choice. I donâ t write quick and dirty reviews. I try to anticipate what I as a reader would really like/need to know and I try to answer those questions/issues. We needed three tiling issues: A stall shower in a small bathroom had to be totally removed/demolished and a new one installed. There was a leak in the tile on the wall with the plumbing fixtures of a tub/shower in a hall bathroom that needed to be dealt with. The master bathroom stall shower needed to be regrouted, and the seams recaulked. When we began, we got proposals from a couple of tile installers, one of whom had been recommended by our long time plumber, who we trust implicitly. His proposal was professional, but he wanted to make a mountain out of a molehill. The work he wanted to do was more than any other proposer. And he absolutely refused to give us a proposal that included the cost of the tile, and refused to even tell us the square footage of the tile needed until and unless he was awarded the contract. There was no way to get to a bottom line cost without understanding the cost of the tile. Despite being recommended by our plumber, we did not use him. Thatâ s when I went to Home Advisor. Home Advisor provided the names of several tile installers that had good reviews. Two of the three proposals were pretty unprofessional; to me they seemed as if they could have been prepared on a cocktail napkin. And they only saw one way to do the job. No inventiveness at all. We didnâ t use them. The third proposal was from Marble Effects. Mat came. He was inventive, seeking to minimize the cost. Nice. He fully explained the options we had, and explained the plusses and minuses of each. He clearly understood what we wanted, and what we needed. His proposal was truly professional. It specified his insurance coverage and his license number. It was clear. It was complete. We talked about it and he made a few adjustments. We chose Marble Effects. And weâ re glad we did. The work was completed today. Everything was nicely, carefully, and professionally done. It took a bit longer to complete than had originally proposed, but thatâ s OK because there was no rushing, nothing slapdash about everything Mat â and his father Hiram â did. Everything they did, they did carefully. They were always neat. They always took care to protect our property. They did it right. They explained what they were doing. They explained why they were doing it. They explained why, from time to time, the work had to pause to permit something to set and/or cure. Perfection -- itâ s clear from their attitudes and actions â is of primary importance to them. Nice. Multiple times during the course of the project Mat asked us if everything was OK; if there were any problems we had with anything Mat wanted to take care of it. (When was the last time any contractor did that? Never, in my lifetime.) Nice. And the price quoted in the beginning was the price I paid at the end. No extras. No additions. Nice."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

Yes, tile floor removal is a physically demanding project that takes between eight and 12 hours per 100 square feet. It also requires protective gear and closing the area off with construction-grade plastic sheeting to avoid dust and damage to other parts of your home.

Glazed ceramic tiles don’t need to be sealed because the glazing already offers some protection against moisture. Unglazed ceramic tiles need to be sealed to keep the porous tile safe from moisture and staining. However, both types of tile can benefit from sealing. Sealant can make the tiles easier to keep clean and offer more resistance to water, spills, and stains.

Ideally, you should remove tile before installing hardwood floors, but there are good reasons not to. Removing stubborn tile can be a labor-intensive job that adds days to the project. The subfloor beneath the tiles could also be damaged during the process, meaning you’d have to repair the subfloor before installing the new hardwood floor. 

Glass tile is one of the easiest materials to maintain. It is both stain and water-resistant, making it easy to clean and incredibly durable. This also makes it resistant to mold and mildew. However, make sure it’s kept clean, otherwise, your grout might start to degrade. Glass is liable to scratch, so ensure you’re using non-abrasive materials and products, like soft sponges and wipes.
