Customers say: Quality work

"Pablo personally did our small tile jobs in both upstairs bathrooms after we had to install new tube/shower plumbing units, and his work was excellent. He is very courteous and professional and finished the jobs in good time. He also was able to handle the remaining plumbing work, installing the handle/faucet unit for us. I would not hesitate to recommend him for any tile work."

"If you need your floors re-done, look no further for someone to do it. Paul and his crew were professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. I had them remove carpeting and replace it with hardwood floors in my living and dining rooms. I’ve had a lot of work done to houses throughout the years and I’m very picky with the work I want done. Paul and his guys rate toward the top. He and his crew show up when they say they’re going to and they do the work. Paul answers his calls and messages and let’s you know what’s going on. I couldn’t be more pleased."

Small jobs welcome

"Austin was awesome! He gave me a bid to tile my exterior front porch which he honored even though it took a little longer (labor wise) than he expected. Most of that was my fault as I told him we were buying porcelain tile but we ended up buyer slate tile. He pivoted and proceeded to install. Once he had a few rows installed he said this will look better with a “enhancer” sealer that will darken the tile ( which we wanted) and it would protect it as well. This was specific to natural stone. Since we told him porcelain he didn’t have that with him so after hours he went and purchased it and then showed me how to apply so I could maintain the natural stone every 6 months or so. Austin was always on time and showed up on the days he said he would be at my house. And most importantly was always in a good mood and seemed to genuinely like what he does for a living! I whole heartily recommend Austin and his crew and have already recommended him to others!!"

"I wish I could give Pero more than 5 stars! Pero has added screens to our gazebo and his work has been outstanding. I found SH&R almost by accident one day online but we are very happy we did. Besides adding screens and a door to our gazebo, he also installed a ceiling fan and two outdoor lamps. In addition to our gazebo, he also installed for us a shower door for our basement bathroom and a sliding screen door at our kitchen. His work ethic, communication and capacity to pay attention to details are exemplary. Since day 1 I was amazed by how proactive he is and how he always wants to have a perfect finish product for the client. He definitely goes above and beyond to keep his customers happy. His projects are much more competitive than other contractors in terms of cost and the final product is just perfect. We will not have to look for another home remodeling company ever again because I will always go to Pero and SH&R! .Keep up the fantastic work that you do for your customers!"

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.

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.

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.

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.

Yes, you can tile over existing shower tiles, but it's better to remove the old tiles first for the best results. Tiling over existing tiles requires a clean, level surface and proper adhesion. If the old tiles are in good condition, you can roughen the surface to improve adhesion. However, removing the old tiles ensures a smoother, longer-lasting finish and prevents potential issues down the line.
