"Great work and reasonable price! Coy and his team did a great job installing a new shower for me. I was impressed that they took extra time to do things right instead of cutting corners. Great communication and a pleasure to work with. I would definitely choose them again!"

"Hardwood was installed in whole lower level of our home and done ahead of schedule. So we hired them to lay tile in our two upstairs baths. Everything was done as a perfectionist would do it. The whole house looks great and the price was lower than many of the quotes we received. Trey came with a great recommendation from my son-in-law who used him to lay the hardwoods in his home (which also looked great.) Definitely recommend and would use again."

"We were very pleased with the work Top Notch Tile did for us. They tore out and installed new tile in our walk in shower. They did a fantastic job and kept everything clean in the process. Father and son were always prompt, courteous, professional and informative. I would highly recommend this duo and will call again on future tile needs."

Flawless Floors far exceeded my expectations on not only the quality of their work but also their price. Francis Blair and his team did drywall work for me as well as tile work in my bathroom and laundry room.   He was very timely, organized, and had the necessary tools to do a flawless job.  This company puts their customers first. For example, they worked late hours and went out of their way to help us get re-situated into our home.  I am extremely thankful that I hired this company to do my work and will definitely be using them in the future.

Backsplash Installation 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.

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.

On average, tiling a bathroom involves about 12 hours of labor, usually spread over two to three days to accommodate prep work and curing times. A professional tiler can often complete the installation in 6 to 8 hours, whereas a DIYer might take 10 to 16 hours. The total project time is influenced by factors like the bathroom layout, tile type, and necessary prep work, such as removing old tile. The process includes specific timelines for different areas; for example, tiling a floor takes about six hours, while a shower area can take six to ten hours. It is essential to allow for adequate curing time—typically 24 hours each—for the mortar, grout, and caulk, which is why the project extends over several days.

The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.

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.
