"Luis from LJ Flooring is one of the best contractors I've ever worked with. He went above and beyond to work with me on scheduling the job due to some delays on my part with tile delivery. He arrived at the time/day he said he would, and completed the job when agreed. He took extra care to clean up and did all the hard work in removing and reinstalling my kitchen appliances so he could lay tile underneath. He also made some new baseboards where there were none. He helped me select the right color grout too. The new tile looks amazing, the cost was very competitive, and I couldn't be happier."

"Lalo just completed laying 350 sq ft of tile in my home. This was both ceramic and stone. He arrived on time, worked long hours 2 straight days, cleaned up at himself and did a near perfect job. I couldn't be more happy with the workmanship and the beautiful transformation in my home. Highly recommend."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

Yes, but you’ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.

Tile floor installation usually takes about 16 hours of active work along with a couple of days of drying time between tile and grout applications.

The amount of time it takes your installer will depend on many factors, including the square footage of the space, the tile material type, and if they need to make intricate tile cuts.

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.

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.

It’s not a good idea to lay tile and grout on the same day. The adhesive or thin-set that sticks the tiles to the surface needs plenty of time to dry before you can grout. Wait for 24 to 48 hours, depending on moisture levels in the space. The tiles can become misaligned and more prone to damage if you don’t wait.
