"I went to Angie's to find a contractor for a bathroom remodel earlier this year and a floor installation 2 weeks ago. Called on a Monday the project Mgr. came out on Tuesday, and my floors were installed on Thursday. So this was the second time I went to Angie's, and they are GREAT!!!! I will be going on there again for light install I would highly recommend Angie's for anyone looking for installation for any projects you have. The worker's are respectable and polite they make sure you are satisfied with the work before they leave as well as asking midway. They clean the area before the leave as well....AWESOME!!!!"

"I choose Mike after interviewing 3 other contractors, Mike was very knowledgeable about the glass backsplash that I wanted to have installed and the price was right, also he replaced my kitchen floor with a vinyl wood look, Mike and his team was on time, got right to work and cleaned up after the job, both of my projects look GREAT, my kitchen looks brand new. I would hire him again if needed ,excellent job... Thanks Mike"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You can let the tile sit without grout. Don’t panic if there’s a delay between installing the tiles and grouting. A substantial stoppage isn't a problem, provided you keep the tile surface clear of dust and debris. Also, avoid walking over less stable ungrouted floor tiles as they are more prone to premature cracking and shifting. 

If you’re handling your tile removal yourself, seal the room using painter’s tape and heavy-duty contractor bags to prevent dust and shards from escaping. Use a claw hammer or a pry bar and a mallet to get behind the tile and pry it away from the floor or wall. Once your tiles are all removed, sweep everything into contractor bags for disposal, being careful not to overfill them. Make sure you wear a dust mask, safety goggles, and work gloves to keep yourself safe from injury while you work.

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, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn’t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.

If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it’s in good enough condition to lay new tile.

Yes. You can tile over tile if the old tile is in good shape, but this will also create a thicker floor. As a result, you may have to remove and readjust baseboards and other room trimmings and potentially even raise door heights to work with the higher floors. In most projects, it’s best to remove the old tile before installing a new tile floor.
