"Adrian is extremely professional, honest, courteous, and hard working. He did not expect payment until the work was completed, which was a refreshing change after having dealt with the fraudulent nightmare that was Chris Wray of Southern Design Tile and Marble. We had to purchase more marble because our first tile installer (Chris Wray) charged us for marble that he never purchased and never delivered. Adrian was helpful and passed on his savings to us. Just a complete breath of fresh air! He makes money on his work, not on the tile, and his work is excellent. Our marble bathroom looks beautiful! I will definitely call European Flooring Installers for any future renovations! Adrian communicates well, puts down drop cloths to protect wood floors and carpets, and cleans up after each visit. You are never left wondering when he'll return to finish. He aims to please his clients, and he does! We highly recommend European Flooring Installers!

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.

Tile installation can be expensive because it requires more time and labor to install than many other materials. For example, laminate flooring can click and lock into place, and carpet comes in large rolls that you can secure to the floor. On the other hand, tiles need to be cut, laid individually, grouted, and left to cure.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.

Yes, unfortunately, it is normal for wall and floor tiles to crack, especially when you drop heavy items on tiled floors or place heavy objects on them. Tiles are also more susceptible to cracking when ceramic tiles designed for walls are installed on floors, as these are often not strong enough to handle heavy loads from foot traffic and furniture. Similarly, tiles that are installed incorrectly, lack adequate subflooring, or have other installation problems are prone to cracking. To avoid these problems and the inevitable repair and replacement costs they bring, always hire a professional for tile work and follow best practices for installation.

For glass tile, you want to use unsanded grout. Sanded grout is a stronger and grittier cement grout that is great for installing tiles with wider gaps and into joints. However, it is susceptible to scratching glass tile and is more difficult to use in thinner gaps. Unsanded grout, while more expensive, is easier to fit between thin gaps and is less harsh on delicate materials, like glass tile.
