"Mohammed did more than an excellent job on a difficult backsplash installation. He took his to make several intricate cuts to ensure the backsplash was even against an uneven wall. He gave us his professional advice on various aspects and product selections. He was on time and personable. I would definitely recommend and hire him again"

"I initially contacted Brayan about installing upper cabinets for me, but ended up having him quote laying tile backsplash as well. His estimate was extremely fair, and offered a little off if I gave him both jobs. I hired him for both jobs and he came out the next week (my earliest availability) to complete them. He was very communicative prior to coming, working back and forth to make sure we had all the necessary supplies. We used a mixture of things I had and he picked up the rest of what we needed. He showed up promptly on the day we scheduled with another guy and they worked all day to get both jobs completed. He returned the next day for a short time to finish the grout, but other than that had everything completed in a day. They were both extremely professional and clean while doing their work. The end results were even better than expected. Super easy and friendly to work with, and charged exactly what he quoted. I will definitely be using him again."

"I couldn’t be happier with the work done on my two bathroom remodels. From start to finish, the handyman was professional, reliable, and extremely skilled. He paid close attention to every detail and made sure everything was done right—not rushed, not cut corners.Both bathrooms were completely transformed, and the quality of the workmanship truly shows. The tile work, fixtures, finishes, and overall design came together beautifully. He communicated clearly throughout the project, showed up on time, kept the work areas clean, and was always respectful of my home. What impressed me most was his problem-solving ability and pride in his work. Any unexpected issues were handled quickly and correctly, and he made sure I was satisfied every step of the way. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and talented handyman for bathroom remodeling (or any home improvement project), I highly recommend him. I would absolutely use his services again and confidently refer him to family."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

It’s important to leave a gap in the corner when tiling to allow room for tile expansion. Leaving between one eighth of an inch to one tenth of an inch is enough space. 

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

Whether you want to match your tile trim with grout comes down to your personal preferences. If you match the two, it can help your tiles to stand out while providing a clean, cohesive look. On the other hand, you might opt to match your tile trim with your tiles. The best option will depend largely on your tile design, as well as how it fits overall with the rest of your room.

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.
