"Element Elite did a wonderful job installing a wall cut out pet door in our new home. They were flexible, very easy to work with, confident, trustworthy, and precise. The final cost was also reasonable and matched their estimate quote. I would recommend them to all my family/friends and will use them again myself if other needs arise!"
"Steve Ellis has been fantastic to work with . We did a great deal of remodeling in our family room and Steve and his crew were very knowledgeable and quick and we couldn't have hoped for better work. Everything looks amazing. They've also torn out old carpet and installed vinyl flooring in the family room, master bedroom two hallways including stairs. They have scraped and repainted our decking ..built new stairs with that and done some waterproofing repair on our deck overhang. We very highly recommend H and E Construction. LLC for any need you may have. Nicole S."
"We wanted to extend our laminate flooring throughout our first floor. JRH worked quickly, got our old carpet removed, and installed the laminate, meshing into the existing laminate perfectly."

"Showed up before I was off of the phone. Diagnosed the problem and solved it before a tear fell from my face about having to call a plumber on a Monday! "
"Very good experience! Everyone is very nice and punctual. I was given a bid a year ago and was finally able to have the work done. Then kitchen tune up came in this year they were able to match last years estimate. Delivery time frames were very accurate and reasonable. The kitchen was useable everyday during the remodel. I had a cabinet that needed a new bottom, due to having been cut out by a previous owner to accommodate a taller fridge and never had been repaired. The cabinet was rebuilt and works and looks great. I also wanted access to a lazy Susan from the dining side of the kitchen, which was installed beautifully. My back splash isfantastic! I had decided on a tile mosaic, which took some great talent to cut and install. It turned out beautiful."
"I can’t say enough great things about Ryan! He has been so responsive, did an amazing job, and has gone above and beyond to help with my house. Thanks Ryan!!"
"Victor did exactly what was agreed upon. We had a problem with the bullnose tile not entirely covering wherte the vinyl coving was. He was knowledgeable how to solve it be cutting tile to cover and installing a metal piece on top. It made his time to get the job completed take quite a bit lpng"
Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic.
For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.
Figure out how much tile you need by measuring the backsplash area. Measure the height and length in feet and multiply to get the square footage. Don’t make adjustments for outlets or small cutouts but subtract the square footage for windows or other large obstructions from the total. To account for waste, get 10% more than your calculation.
Replacing tile flooring can take a few days for a pro, but larger rooms will need more time. It takes eight to 12 hours for a tiling pro to remove old grout and tiles across 100 square feet. Then, it will take about four hours to prep the subfloor for tiles and another eight to 10 hours for a pro to install new tiles. Your tiling project may take up to a week, depending on the size of the room.
Yes, you can tile over existing tiles in a bathroom, but it is not always recommended. For this method to be successful, the original tile surface must be clean, flat, and free of damage such as cracks, unevenness, mold, or mildew. While tiling over existing tiles can save time and money, there are potential drawbacks. The new adhesive may not bond properly, and the process adds extra weight to the wall or floor. Additionally, the increased height of the surface could interfere with door clearances. For the best and most durable results, removing the old tiles before installing new ones is generally the better option.
Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.
