"I would highly recommend their services. They designed and installed my bathroom, and it has never looked this good. Everything is in sync, from the tiles to the accessories. I'd give them a solid ten out of ten."

"Bath Fitter did an amazing job upgrading our shower. We had tile, but we were having so many problems with cracks in the tile and the grout cracking and causing leaks that we were recaulking every 6 months, to the point the shower became unusable. Bath Fitter gave us a competitive quote. The install took a full day. The shower is a larger custom size but they handled it like pros. They knocked out all the tile and green board down to the studs, took out the original flooring, reworked the plumbing, then went to work installing everything. They got done late in the evening but the shower looked amazing. We had to wait a few days for the caulk to cure, and we waited a full week just to make sure it was fully set, but we loved it right away. We chose the Delta 2 in 1 Hydrorain shower head and instantly loved it. The best part? Our shower no longer leaks! Very happy with Bath Fitter’s work."

"Gary Kimberlin came to the house to examine the damage within a few hours of my call. He informed me the best way to approach such damage is to mask it since drywall repair often results in the cracks returning or new cracks appearing.  He suggested bead board over the south and north walls of the kitchen and living room area with moulding surrounding it. He suggested a beam over the vault to mask the damage.  Crown moulding would mask the damage in the bedroom.  ----  He scheduled the job and within two weeks arrived with his own people(no subs) to do the work.  The job was done efficiently and with minimal disruption. The repair looks good and I expectit will work as designed. ...   Kimberlin Construction seems well run, capable,  and professional."

"Very pleased with all aspects of the company so far. In fact I was so impressed with their products prices that I added on an additional window and a sliding glass door to my project! They are currently producing my windows and should be installed far before real winter! And they do 90% of the instillation of the windows from the OUTSIDE...which made me feel so much more safe in this time of COVID."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

It’s easiest to start from an edge as it gives you a straight line. A problem may arise if your edge doesn’t line up perfectly, in which case it’s best to start from the center. Some think that starting tile from the center adds a focal point in the center of the hearth. 

You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.

Yes. You can tile over tile if the old tile is in good shape, but this will also create a thicker floor. As a result, you may have to remove and readjust baseboards and other room trimmings and potentially even raise door heights to work with the higher floors. In most projects, it’s best to remove the old tile before installing a new tile floor.

Updating your backsplash without removing the tile is possible in a couple of different ways. First, you can remove the old grout and replace it with new grout to give your backsplash a fresh look. You can also change the grout color, which can have a surprisingly large impact on the final appearance of the backsplash. Finally, you can paint the original tile to totally change the look of the backsplash without removing it.

While you shouldn’t use thinset mortar on its own as a floor leveler, it can work alongside other products to help level floors. For instance, you could start with a self-leveling compound, let that dry, then apply backer board with thinset mortar to help fully even out the floors ahead of laying tile.
