"We are very happy with our new backsplash. David works fast, but does not cut corners, and the tile was installed perfectly! He cleaned up after himself so we'll, if it wasn't for the beautiful new tile, we wouldn't have known he was ever here. We would highly recommend David to anyone interested in a tile backsplash. He's polite, efficient, and honest."

"Jeremy is now my 'go to' company for all my repair & remodeling needs. He & his crew arrived on time, completed installing several outside doors in neat & timely fashion. He also was able to tile a small entry porch, which totally changed the appearance of this doorway. I am totally pleased with the work done and the neat, orderly and professional matter that Grandview Construction provided."

"I had a great experience working with Michael on my tile project. From start to finish, he was professional, reliable, and clearly takes pride in his work. He paid close attention to detail, made sure everything was level and aligned perfectly, and the final result looks outstanding. Michael was also easy to communicate with—he showed up on time, kept the workspace clean, and made sure I was happy with each step of the process. You can tell he knows his craft and doesn’t cut corners. If you’re looking for a tile installer who delivers high-quality work and a smooth, stress-free experience, I’d definitely recommend Michael"

"John did a very nice job on my kitchen backsplashes and was more than professional throughout the 2-day project. He kept his work area clean and did a meticulous job, all at what I thought was a reasonable price. He was also happy to give me advice for the long-term maintenance of the marble tile. The only reason for the ding on Johns report card is that there is a light tile with a very dark black mark that almost looks like a bug (sorry to say) which John installed in a very prominent spot. Unfortunately, everyone who visits my home notices this immediately. Since there was so much surplus material available, I really wish that John had substituted a cleaner tile in place of the one that he used."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you’re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option. Cutting dry also means you can apply tile grout sooner, so it’s better for rushed projects.

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. 

Yes, you can use paint if you want to refresh your tile countertops. However, you must be mindful of the type of paint you use. Look for options explicitly created for tile that are also waterproof and durable. Over time, the paint will chip, so this is not considered a long-term solution for busy kitchens.

Tiling can be DIY with the right tools and skills, but challenges like ensuring evenness and appropriate adhesion often warrant professional handling.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.
