"I've used TPA three times for three different types of projects...refinishing wood floors, installing wood floors in new construction, and a tear out and replacement of wood floors. Eddie takes great pride in his work, pays attention to the details, and his craftsmanship is exceptional...all of which show in the finished product. He carefully listened to our needs and gave us recommendations to ensure he delivered the results we wanted. I would highly recommend TPA for any and all of your wood floor projects."

"We love our new shower thanks to Javier and his team. They demolished the old shower and kept the area clean. Then constructed a new shower design and retiled with a combination of porcelain, marble and stone tiles. It looks beautiful. We will recommend them to others and would hire them again!"

"Osbel did an amazing job remodeling my bathroom and kitchen. It was a full renovation from tile to plumbing and cabinets. The quality and attention to details was better than expected. The price was great. It took 15 days to complete. Most contractors estimated 1 month so I was very happy with the turnover. I'd highly recommend him for any plumbing, electrical, tile and cabinets work needed in your house. Thank you!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Tiling can be DIY with the right tools and skills, but challenges like ensuring evenness and appropriate adhesion often warrant professional handling.

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.

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

You can, in theory, tile your fireplace hearth with most tiles. However just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. For example, it’s much better to use unglazed tiles because glazed tiles are more resistant to cracking under extreme heat. Porcelain is more heat-resistant than ceramic, but you can still design the hearth as you like by putting the most heat-resistant tiles directly under the fire and, if it matches your style, add more decorative tiles further from the center of the fire.
