"I’m very happy I chose Fran to install my kitchen tile backsplash. He was prompt in coming to look at the job and provided a quote the very next day. Fran shared pictures and ideas to help me decide which tiles would look and work best—no pressure at all, just helpful guidance. Fran and his helper James were prompt, professional, and a pleasure to have working in my home. The backsplash came out great, and Fran left the area spotless—like he was never even there. Fran is a great guy who does excellent work. I’d gladly recommend him to anyone looking for tile installation services!"

"I was very impressed with David's responsiveness and every member of his crew was a pleasure. They completely removed the kitchen floor (and several layers of subfloor) in my 100+ year-old home, made repairs to floor joists and installed new flooring that looks beautiful. It was an evolving project and I appreciated the team's flexibility and speed with which they completed the project."

"We hired the team to help us renovate a home before we moved in. They worked tirelessly to complete the project within a month so we could move in ASAP. Most of the home was redone and it came out amazing. We can not thank them enough!!"

"I highly recommend CRS Painting. They have done so many home improvement projects for us and every one of them has been outstanding. They painted the exterior of our raised ranch, put down a new wood floor, and painted our family room. The most recent project, in November 2025, was painting our dining room, living room, halls and a bedroom and installing and staining six doors. Their is exceptional. When they paint they move all the furniture, cover it carefully and put it back neatly. They patch all the holes in the walls and cracks in the ceilings. They pay attention to every single detail and are friendly and responsive. I will definitely hire Celso and CRS for our next home improvement job."

"I called them and left a message about what I needed done. I received a call from them the same day. They were Abel to come the second day. The job of installing a gable vent on my house was done in less than 2 hours. I will definitely use them for my next project."

Customers say: True professional

"Excellent! I was pushing this painting off for so long as I work full time and did not want to deal with moving all the stuff out of my bedrooms. Kyle made the process super easy. He helped with moving the furniture out and prepping the room as well as picking out color. Super nice guy who really seems like he cares about his work and business! He was punctual and got everything done really quickly and painlessly, while still doing good quality work. I had some water damage in one of the bedrooms and he took care of and seemed very knowledgeable about what to do. Everything looks great! Great pricing! Very pleased and would definitely hire again if I need more painting done."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Whether you use a brush or roller depends on the size, shape, and amount of tiles. Rollers are easier to maneuver over large areas and can apply a more even coat of paint in a shorter time frame with no visible brushstrokes. Brushes are best for precision work, particularly in very small areas. If you don't want visible brushstrokes on your painted tiles, you can paint details with small foam brushes instead of bristled paint brushes.

Yes, cracked tiles allow water to seep through the substrate or subfloor, leading to mold and mildew growth. It can also cause severe structural damage. At the very least, water damage can cause your tile to lift from the substrate, meaning one cracked tile can lead to several cracked tiles. It’s a good idea to waterproof tile in areas with direct water exposure or lots of moisture.

The best bathroom floor tiles are strong enough to withstand the weight of a clawfoot tub. However, professional tile installation is essential. If the tiles are uneven or improperly fixed, they may crack under the pressure. Be careful when installing the tub—if it drops or drags on the tiles, it could easily cause scratches or cracks.

Yes, you can install a backsplash directly onto drywall, provided the wall is properly prepped, clean, and dry. For best results, especially in kitchen areas, your walls should be made of moisture-resistant drywall, often called green board. If your current wall isn't moisture-resistant, it's recommended to replace it before installing the backsplash. For even greater protection against water damage, you can remove the existing drywall and install a tile backer board or cement board instead. While properly installed standard drywall is typically strong enough to support a backsplash, some local building codes may require water-resistant materials in kitchen areas, so it's a good idea to check.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.
