"David Devall is SUPERIOR! We suffered through the Great Flood of 2016 in Louisiana. Mr. David Devall was hired to reconstruct our bathroom by reinstalling a new bathtub and shower. He handled the entire process with such expertise and professionalism. The shower had to be removed first, and the demolition process was handled perfectly. He installed a beautiful new bathtub with fixtures, and provided a huge variety of material and natural stone to choose from. We picked the light Emperador. Mr. David installed this beautiful natural stone as an apron on the front, half-wall surround, and a lip on our window sill. It was stunning. He then installed the same light Emperador when reconstructing our shower. He installed a base, the light, the natural stone, a seat, an area for soap and shampoo, the beautiful fixtures, the shower door, and all trim and caulking. His work area is always clean and works with great skill and enthusiasm. He is always punctual and is consistent with following up when he feels that pertinent instructions relative to care of natural stone, etc., need to be provided. He is currently installing a backsplash in our kitchen. I found a sample of what I wanted online (Taos Picket Pattern), and he hunted it down locally. He makes the reconstruction painless as he offers the leg work to minimize the selection and ordering process. His skill, expertise, and prices are phenomenal, and he is a man of great character, integrity, compassion, trust, and dependability. I attached a couple of photos of the tub. I'm not writing this from home, but if I were, you would get a photo of the shower, too. AMAZING! He gets an AA+!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.

Yes, unfortunately, it is normal for wall and floor tiles to crack, especially when you drop heavy items on tiled floors or place heavy objects on them. Tiles are also more susceptible to cracking when ceramic tiles designed for walls are installed on floors, as these are often not strong enough to handle heavy loads from foot traffic and furniture. Similarly, tiles that are installed incorrectly, lack adequate subflooring, or have other installation problems are prone to cracking. To avoid these problems and the inevitable repair and replacement costs they bring, always hire a professional for tile work and follow best practices for installation.

If you’re handling your tile removal yourself, seal the room using painter’s tape and heavy-duty contractor bags to prevent dust and shards from escaping. Use a claw hammer or a pry bar and a mallet to get behind the tile and pry it away from the floor or wall. Once your tiles are all removed, sweep everything into contractor bags for disposal, being careful not to overfill them. Make sure you wear a dust mask, safety goggles, and work gloves to keep yourself safe from injury while you work.

Penny tile should be sealed to protect the grout from moisture and keep stains from damaging the look of the tile. If penny tile is in a humid or high-traffic area, like a bathroom, kitchen, or entryway, it needs sealant. Any type of tile and grout is best maintained with a sealant reapplied by a pro every one to two years.

Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.
