"Great job all around. The sales rep came to our home and was very transparent about the timeline of the install being 10 weeks out. Let us know we wouldn’t really hear anything until a couple of weeks before the install. They did demo all the way down to the studs, disposed of all trash, re plumbed and installed the new shower in 2 days! We did financing through power pay with them as well. At first you might have a bit of sticker shock, but the quality of the finished product and amazing staff is well worth paying for. Fernando was always on time and amazing to work with. Great job!"
"I had a great experience with C&A Tile and Flooring installing my new backsplash!
They installed 4x16 subway tile in my kitchen, and I?m really impressed with the quality of their work. The installation was clean, precise, and the finished result looks amazing. The team was professional, efficient, and clearly takes pride in what they do
I highly recommend C&A Tile and Flooring to anyone looking for quality tile work. Thank you for the great job!"
"Installation went great. Very happy with the final product and will use again on my next project. Mark and Chris were very easy to work with on this project. Thanks again guys!!"
"My wife and I love our new windows. They keep out the weather and look much better. Our custom ordered windows were installed approximately 3-4 weeks after we signed the agreement and paid a the deposit. Hoosier Boy was flexible in scheduling an install date that worked with my schedule. Installers arrived on time and were very careful to not damage any property or landscaping. All trash and debris from the original windows were cleaned up and hauled away. Overall we are very happy with Hoosier Boy's work and will quote them for any future home improvement projects."
"7M Construction was selected to run 2 major renovation projects for us and they exceeded expectations every step of the way. While we collectively experienced material and labor shortages over the last 12 month period, 7M maintained excellent communication about completion timeline and if there were any issues they were quick to respond and address accordingly. I can’t wait to work with them on another project."
"I highly recommend JJC for any remodeling/upgrade project. I hired this company to upgrade my kitchen and they did a fantastic job. They are all about keeping the customer happy. They completed the job in a timely and efficient manner. They have a great work ethic. I will definitely be contracting them again for my next project."
"It was outstanding. Very excellent. They cleaned behind themselves. They left things better than it was before they came. The problem was resolved. Pricing was very comfortable and fair. They were very timely."
Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
Glass tile can cost as much as or more than other durable tile types. When choosing the right tile for you, knowing the advantages and disadvantages of each can help you make an informed decision. The pros and cons of glass tile include:
Pros
Light-reflecting to add brightness
Waterproof and mold-resistant
Made from recyclable materials
Cons
High cost compared to similar and more durable materials
Usually requires professional installation
More easily scratched compared to materials like ceramic and porcelain
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.
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.
The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they’re easier to install than small tiles—the job is faster and simpler when there’s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they’re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.
To maintain tile and grout, clean the surfaces regularly with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and wipe up spills promptly to prevent buildup. It is also important to reseal the grout every 1-2 years to maintain its durability.
