"Amazing job on our backsplash tile! We chose a very difficult pattern and type of tile. The guy that came was able to get the job done even though the glass tile was very difficult to cut and he didn't think he was going to be able to do it. I was pleasantly surprised that he tried hard enough to get it done! Definitely recommend!"

"I recently hired Prospectile to install the backsplash in our kitchen. Sergey responded to my quote request very quickly that same day, and he arranged to stop by to see the kitchen so he could provide an accurate quote. He was very nice and he happily answered all of my questions. The gentleman who installed the tile, Andrew, was very efficient and he was able to install the tile all in one day. My wife and I will be redoing our upstairs bathroom and we'll be contacting Sergey once we're ready to schedule the work."

"Mike is one of a kind, he was friendly, hard working and knowledgeable in so many areas when it came to questions or suggestions to our project needs. He installed a new shower with amazing tile, completed a backsplash in our kitchen and tiled a majority of our home. He can do it all!!! The care and dedication to make sure we were happy with the outcome was his top priority. We'll be hiring him back again for future projects and highly recommend to anyone."

"Roman is extremely talented and conscientious. He is very thoughtful and the quality of work is exceptional. He does not take any shortcuts and neither does he suggest one. He is a bit slow and might not be suitable for someone who is in a rush. We paid a flat rate and might have been a bit pricey, but we believe we got great value for our money."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

Different types of tile cutters may work best depending on the type of tile you are cutting and the size of your project. There are two main types of tile cutters: manual and electric. Manual tile cutters are quick and easy to use for small projects and softer tile materials, but they can only make straight cuts. Electric tile cutters make light work of big projects and can cut through harder materials.

Travertine is a natural stone, while porcelain is ceramic. You can enjoy the best of both worlds with porcelain travertine tiles. Some people prefer porcelain to travertine because it doesn’t require regular maintenance and it’s easier to clean. Porcelain travertine looks like the real thing but only costs $3 to $6 per square foot.

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.

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.
