How much is labor to install a bathroom floor?

• <div><p>If you hire a professional to install a new floor, you can expect to pay between $50 and $75 per hour for labor. It takes two days on average to install a new floor as part of a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-take-remodel-bathroom.htm">bathroom remodeling project</a>, but your timeline depends on your bathroom’s size and layout.</p></div>

How long does it take to install a kitchen backsplash?

• <div><p>You can expect it to take <b>three to four days</b> to fully install a kitchen backsplash—most of the time, waiting for the mortar and grout to dry. The actual process of putting up tiles is relatively quick. You’ll spend a fair amount of time laying out the tiles, ensuring they’re perfectly aligned. Also, if you have to remove the current backsplash, that will also add time to your project.</p></div>

Q: Is it ever appropriate to leave tile in place when redoing a wall?

• <div><p>Yes, provided you aren&rsquo;t installing drywall over it. But you can skim coat it, apply new tile right on top, paint it, or stencil it. For more budget- and DIY-friendly options, you can install beadboard or apply decals. Just make sure that the current tiles are in good condition and prepped well for the paint or adhesive to stick.</p></div>

Q: What is the 3/4/5 rule for laying tile?

• <div><p>The rule tells you how to cut tile to install it in a corner. The 3/4/5 rule recommends that you should have 3 feet across on one straight line, four feet on the other perpendicular line, and 5 feet of length from the end of one of the lines to the other. You&rsquo;re making a right triangle with the tile, and the hypotenuse (the line across from where the 3-foot lie and 4-foot line meet) should be 5 feet long. </p></div>

Q: Which is better: porcelain tile or ceramic tile?

• <div><p>If your budget can stretch to it, opting for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/porcelain-vs-ceramic-tile.htm">porcelain tile over ceramic tile</a> makes sense if you need something hard-wearing for a busy, moisture-retaining space. However, the cost of installing ceramic tiles is less expensive. They&rsquo;re a little softer and easier to work with, making them a good choice for small, decorative DIY projects.</p><p> </p></div>
