"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
There are a few different tools you can use to score tiles. Manual tile cutters or tile scribes work well for scoring in straight lines. Tile nippers are one of the best options for scoring because they can make small and irregular cuts that larger tools may not be able to handle.
No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn’t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.
If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it’s in good enough condition to lay new tile.
Add a T-shaped spacer to each corner of a tile when placing it. You’ll want to nudge the tiles closer together so the spacers are touching each corner. When you’re done installing your tile, you can remove each spacer, wash them, and use them for your next project.
Installing kitchen countertop tiles on a mold and moisture-resistant cement backer board is one of the best options. When fitted correctly on top of a plywood base, it’s stable and long-lasting. Old-fashioned cement board is economical, cuts neatly and easily with a circular or jigsaw, and screws into plywood without any difficulty.
Glass, ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone are all excellent choices for tiling a shower floor. Some glazed finishes can be slippery when wet. Your tiling contractor can provide more information on which tiles will work best for your shower floor.
