"We hired Bowden Ceramic Tile to completely tear out and rebuild our master bathroom. Wayne Bowden worked as general contractor and the scope of work included moving the shower and wc, ripping out and rebuilding several interior walls, removing the pre-existing floor (carpet) and replacing it with porcelain tile, removing a bathtub, and all kinds of related carpentry, electrical, and plumbing work. The job took approximately 6 weeks. Wayne's work ethic is outstanding. He and his crew came to work promptly each weekday morning and worked steadily until end of day. During the project several problems came up (e.g., existing wall slightly out of plumb and too tight for new vanity due to bowed 2x4) and Wayne solved the problem rather than simply try to work around it. The result is that all new and rebuilt walls and corners are perfectly square and plumb, resulting in the tile also being perfectly aligned and square. In summary, the work done by Bowden Ceramic Tile was outstanding. If you want the best "tile guy" in central Indiana, Wayne is your guy."

"They did a great job. Replaced fireplace. We followed his recommendations on size and type of tile and we love it. Fransisco and partner came in time, finished in a very timely matter, cleaned up and returned next day to apply grout. Again on time, and cleaned up. We love it! Thank you"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

You can put hot pans on porcelain countertops. Porcelain is highly resistant to heat—it’s manufactured at around 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit, so it can withstand a ton of heat without cracking or damaging. Even though the high heat is a plus, you should still be cautious when putting hot surfaces on porcelain countertops.

It’s best to install a shower door after the bathroom tile is in place to ensure you have accurate measurements. If you try installing a shower door first, the tile might be too thick to install afterward, or the tile will be too thin and create a gap between the shower doors that allows water to leak. With the tile in place first, you’ll know the exact shower door size that you need.

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.

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.
