"Jason was professional and polite & throughout the entire project was a great communicator. I was very impressed with his skills and know-how, but most of all the overall look of my new flooring when the job was completed! I would highly recommend this young gentleman to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled and trustworthy craftsman to install flooring! In my biggest Tony the Tiger voice,.. he was GRRRRRRREAT! ??"

"Southern Hospitality - Ronnie is a kind professional who listened to what I wanted. Along the way he made suggestions that ultimately led to a better job that was completed is a shorter time and under budget! He did a whole home remodel that was previously destroyed by renters. When Ronnie was done it looked like the model home it once was. We got a sales contract within 24 hours in a large part due to his dedication. I highly recommend him and of course would hire him again."

"Emilio's custom Tile did a great job. They were on time and prompt and cleaned up after themselves. The crews (one for tiling and one for grouting) had good work ethics and they were very easy to work with. I will definitely hire them for my remaining tile projects."

"The handyman finished the project on time. He explained very well what heâ s going to do and what he did. His quote was reasonable. Heâ s very friendly and honest. I ended up having him fix the gap between the wall and my garage door which he fixed on the same day as my first project. I highly recommend Mr. Slim!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic. 

For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.

Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.

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.

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.
