"Santos and his team did a fabulous job. They installed 24" ceramic tiles after removing our old flooring. Due to some leveling issues they had to do some extra work but were more than willing to make sure the job was done right. I would HIGHLY recommend Tile Pro S Home Improvement to anyone. The price was very competitive and the job was finished on time."
"They have been my flooring for over 20 years and 3 houses. Very prompt, professional, and skilled installers. Their prices are always very competitive. Cannot say enough about them. Chuck Sauder"
"What can I say about this company, They did an Incredible work for my home and very professional . I have hired this super team for my home painting, Including crown moulding in the dining room. They have a unique way of working in terms of paying attention to the detailing, Also I must say they cleaned up the work space in a nice way. I am so satisfied with their job and they definitely reached and crossed my expectation. Team is very friendly and it was a great experience working with them. I would rate them a 5/5 anytime. I would hire them again and refer to any person whom i know. They will definitely not disappoint in terms of work and result."
"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!!!"
"They did very good on my bathroom remodel. Before my bathroom was a mess and looked outdated. Now, it looks more modern. I really like how they did the tiles."
"Reliable, skilled. Installed our bidet, replaced faucets, Caulked neatly and completed work another plumber failed to complete. Fair costs with great results. Dependable with excellent quality. Respectful of home cleaning up after job completed."
"The customer service was excellent, Carlos responded very well to everything that I needed. I would definitely look forward to doing business with Day Painter again in the future."
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.
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.
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.
Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.
Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.
