"Muna and her team clean my house twice a month, and those days are by far the happiest days of my month - it is so amazing to walk into a pristinely clean and straightened house. They are very thorough, and everything is absolutely spic-and-span when they are finished - everything from the kitchen counters & stove & appliances, bathrooms, hardwood floors, carpets, etc. They are extremely professional; they always arrive when promised; they are also very efficient."

"I had a dog that recently passed away and toward the end of his life he was having a tough time controlling his urine.  After my dog passed, I called Carpet Pro and they came out the next day and not only did they get rid of the urine smell, Kurt cleaned my couch and all the hair!  I would HIGHLY recommend Carpet Pro for all your carpet cleaning needs!"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.

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.

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

Porcelain countertops have a fairly long life span, sometimes lasting for decades. Depending on how much wear and tear you put your countertops through, it could last 25 to 50 years. But be warned, porcelain is also prone to cracking, so as long as you take good care of it, you’ll have those countertops looking brand new for years to come.

Add a T-shaped spacer to each corner of a tile when placing it. You’ll want to nudge the tiles closer together so the spacers are touching each corner. When you’re done installing your tile, you can remove each spacer, wash them, and use them for your next project.
