"Brian was excellent! He responded to our request within 20 minutes and answered every little question we had about the project. He was so reasonably priced, confirmed 3 days in advance of the job and showed up early both days. He and his partner were quick and professional and we are so happy with the result of our backsplash."

"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!!!!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Mike, Mary and Rich took a bathroom from 1948 to 2018! Our bathroom was a complete disaster, with old tile, plumbing and a cast iron tub. Now I would be proud to show in a magazine. A miracle. They arrived on time, stayed within budget and were very nice. Completely comfortable having them in our home! Highly recommend!!!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Updating your backsplash without removing the tile is possible in a couple of different ways. First, you can remove the old grout and replace it with new grout to give your backsplash a fresh look. You can also change the grout color, which can have a surprisingly large impact on the final appearance of the backsplash. Finally, you can paint the original tile to totally change the look of the backsplash without removing it.

Yes, you can tile over existing tiles in a bathroom, but it is not always recommended. For this method to be successful, the original tile surface must be clean, flat, and free of damage such as cracks, unevenness, mold, or mildew. While tiling over existing tiles can save time and money, there are potential drawbacks. The new adhesive may not bond properly, and the process adds extra weight to the wall or floor. Additionally, the increased height of the surface could interfere with door clearances. For the best and most durable results, removing the old tiles before installing new ones is generally the better option.

The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic. 

For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.

You should always use caulk instead of grout where the tile meets the wall. This will help your tile installation look great and last a long time. When you accidentally use grout for the corner seams, you end up making the tiles too rigid. So as the wall shifts over time, your tiles have no wiggle room. This can lead to tile damage, which will eventually require you to do at least a partial reinstallation.

Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.
