"Wow, what a great experience I had with Nathan with NK Carpentry yesterday afternoon! He arrived early to power wash 7 large outdoor Polywood pieces of furniture and an outdoor rug that were heavily covered with nicotine stains. He is very professional, yet friendly and approachable. He verified what I wanted done and got right to work. He finished in just a little over 2 hours and got about 99% of the stains off of all of the furniture…they look brand new! And then he wound up the hose and hung it back up; laid out the furniture pieces in the sun so they’d dry and made sure I was satisfied with his work before I paid him with a check, shook hands and said goodbye. I’d hire him in a minute to do other work! He’s a young, very hard worker; efficient; cleans up when he’s finished with the job; had a very fair price and is determined to be a quality, successful businessman! I was extremely impressed!"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

If you want your ceramic tiles to be evenly spaced and installation to take less time, spacers are a crucial part of the installation process.

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. 

Most professional shower tile installations take between six and eight hours, depending on the size and complexity. Most projects get completed in a single workday. DIY-ing the project takes around three to four days or roughly 16 hours. However, this will vary based on the skill level of the person completing the work.

Tiles last for around 100 years or more. Tiles on backsplashes can last even longer since they’re less likely to crack under foot traffic or from accidental drops, but even tile in high-traffic flooring can last a century or more with proper installation and upkeep. Porcelain tiles are denser and stronger than standard ceramic tiles, so they’ll last longer, often pushing past the 100-year mark.

Your floors should be completely level for tile, otherwise you risk damaging the tiles in the future. When there are even small gaps or hills in the subfloor beneath the tile, this puts more pressure on the tile when you walk around on the floor. With repeated traffic, the tiles are at risk of cracking, and you’ll have to deal with tile repairs sooner than if the floor was completely level.
