"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

Glass tile is one of the easiest materials to maintain. It is both stain and water-resistant, making it easy to clean and incredibly durable. This also makes it resistant to mold and mildew. However, make sure it’s kept clean, otherwise, your grout might start to degrade. Glass is liable to scratch, so ensure you’re using non-abrasive materials and products, like soft sponges and wipes.

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.

Yes, even if you’re being careful, removing tile can damage your drywall to some degree. However, you can minimize the damage done to it by eliminating a majority of the grout and taking your time prying each tile off. Also, it's worth noting that you might have more drywall damages to deal with if your tile is set into the mortar.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.

The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they’re easier to install than small tiles—the job is faster and simpler when there’s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they’re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.
