"From the estimate to the finished product, Fernando was an absolute professional. We live in a co-op and Fernando had no problems working within the strict guidelines. He was extremely courteous and always responded to texts and calls quickly. We had him and his crew put in crown molding and baseboard trim throughout our entire apartment. They also removed wallpaper from 1 room and painted the entire apartment. Each day they left the apartment spotless as if they weren't there. Throughout the process, Fernando asked us to point out any imperfections we saw. When we did, he immediately addressed it and as a result the apartment now looks amazing. He is a perfectionist and will not leave the job until you are completely satisfied. We look forward to doing more work with Fernando in the future!"

"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!"

"Angel and his team did excellent work. The craftsmanship was top notch and communication was quick and clear. They worked with us to on our requirements and made the remodeling process painless. They installed a tile floor in our bathroom and kitchen backsplash with glass tile. They also painted our 50yr old oak kitchen cabinets and painted a few rooms, hallways, etc. They helped with style recommendations and paid attention to all of the details (picking out hardware for the cabinets, recommending tile layout, finding a gallon of paint that the store mixed incorrectly and figuring out we had picked an incorrect grout color). Everything came out better than we hoped. Thank you!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t technically need a cement backer board for a wall tiling project, but not using it risks disastrous moisture damage. Cement is naturally water-resistant, whereas drywall soaks it in, which can lead to warping or mold growth. Always use a backer board treated with a waterproof membrane for bathrooms and other chronically damp areas to ensure complete tile shower waterproofing.

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, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.

Here’s another instance of where the answer is you could, but that doesn’t mean you should. Yes, part of the issue is getting the drywall to stay in place on the tiles, and it’s understandable that screws will crack the tiles and cause them to crumble. That’s why it’s a much better idea to screw drywall into studs, not your porcelain or ceramic tile. But aside from issues with attaching the drywall, it’s also about ensuring a smooth application without trapping moisture inside.

Common problems include cracks, loose tiles, and grout discoloration. Proper maintenance prevents many issues.
