"We recently had our deck project completed by Central Iowa Contractor Services, and the entire experience was outstanding. From the initial estimate to the final walkthrough, the team was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. They communicated clearly throughout the project, showed up when they said they would, and paid close attention to the details. The finished deck turned out even better than we expected. The craftsmanship is excellent, and it’s obvious they take pride in their work. The crew kept the work area clean and made the whole process stress-free. If you’re looking for a contractor who is honest, reliable, and delivers high-quality results, I highly recommend Central Iowa Contractor Services. We couldn’t be happier with our new deck and would absolutely use them again for future projects."

"Jeff did an excellent job. Both the garage and the shed look fantastic! We would highly recommend him . If we could afford to have him do the flooring and interior painting we would. Unfortunately, we are on a fixed income. I love his work ethics!!!!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

There are several low-maintenance shower floor tiles to consider for your bathroom. Stone tiles are easy to keep clean and only need an occasional resealing to keep them looking their best. Porcelain is another low-maintenance choice, as it doesn’t stain easily. Vinyl is also suitable for easy upkeep. On the other hand, one of the highest maintenance options for bathrooms is wood tile.

Tile countertops can be an excellent and budget-friendly option for a kitchen, provided they are installed correctly. It's important to choose tiles, such as ceramic, that are heat-, water-, and scratch-resistant. When the grout is properly sealed, it will resist stains, making the surface easy to clean. Tile is also considered a sustainable material. For a cohesive kitchen design and added protection, you can pair a tile countertop with a matching tile backsplash.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

When working on your bathroom floor tiling, you should always tile the floor first and then refit the toilet afterward. This has both practical and visual advantages—the tile will have a better seal, and the installation will look cleaner.

On the other hand, when you try to cut the tiles to fit around the toilet, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. It’s a lot more work, it’s hard to be precise, and mistakes or miscalculations can lead to future moisture damage to the tiling, grout, and subfloor.
