"Jon did an amazing install on my backsplash for my kitchen and was great to work with and very helpful. When he came to my house to give us a bid, he knew exactly what had to be done and quickly bid the job. He was on time and always let me know that he was on his way, When he came to my house to install my backsplash, he did not waste any time to get started and steadily worked his way through the project without any BS and really focused on the job at hand. He is honest, neat, cleans up when he is done for the day. He is very professional. He does great work and is the go to guy for tile installation - Highly recommend him."

"Great!! Excellent work. Took a very small space with just a toilet and made it an exceptionally nice 3/4 Bath with pedestal sink, ceramic floor tile and stall shower."
"We were very, very, pleased with the finished tile and paint work and impressed with their professionalism, great customer service. They were prompt to arrive on the job and if there was any delay for any reason, they called ahead to let us know why and then gave an update on their estimated time of arrival. Would hire again if needed for any future tile installation and/or interior painting for our house."
"After cleaning our carpets during a previous visit, Scott informed us that he also performs the service of cleaning and sealing floor tile. We had one room that he came back to do for us. This visit took about an hour, all tile and grout in the room and closet were cleaned and sealed. We were very pleased with his services, and will definitely use him again."
"Bryce did an amazing job designing and installing tile in my bathroom shower and floor. I would definitely recommend him. He made sure the tile was perfect!"
"Our tile backsplash came out great. Mark was a pleasure to work with! It's like a totally different kitchen and we couldn't be happier with the professional and friendly service provided."
Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
If the hearth ends against a wall, you can use a tile cutter as you normally would. However, if the edge of your hearth ends with no surface pressing against it,you may want to look into rounded tiles. These give a smooth edge to your hearth and make sure cut edges aren’t visible. You can also see if the tile you have has pieces that have been glazed or rounded on one edge. You’d then cut the tile and place it normally, with the cut edge facing inward.
The lifespan of tile flooring can vary significantly based on the material and maintenance. Generally, tile flooring can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, but high-quality, well-maintained ceramic tile can last 75 to 100 years. To achieve a longer lifespan, you should clean the tiles and grout regularly, reseal the grout annually, keep the floor dry, and avoid placing extremely heavy items on it to prevent cracking. Choosing a high-quality tile (Grade 1) will also contribute to its longevity.
Tile—specifically smaller, mosaic-style tiles—is the best type of flooring for building a walk-in shower base. Shower pans come with a threshold and sidewalls to contain the water, but tile can be set into the shower base. This creates a walk-in shower floor that gently slopes toward the drain to keep water from getting out and into the rest of the bathroom.
You can let the tile sit without grout. Don’t panic if there’s a delay between installing the tiles and grouting. A substantial stoppage isn't a problem, provided you keep the tile surface clear of dust and debris. Also, avoid walking over less stable ungrouted floor tiles as they are more prone to premature cracking and shifting.
You should always use caulk instead of grout where the tile meets the wall. This will help your tile installation look great and last a long time. When you accidentally use grout for the corner seams, you end up making the tiles too rigid. So as the wall shifts over time, your tiles have no wiggle room. This can lead to tile damage, which will eventually require you to do at least a partial reinstallation.
