"Johnny and Danny took our fixer-upper and made it look like a million bucks. They remodeled about half of our house, and boy was it a piece of work -- a basement demolished from water damage, broken bathroom (broken shower, cracked sink), and 3 rooms with dented drywall, paint peeling, old popcorn ceiling, you name it. They transformed it into a beautiful home. I LOVE the bathroom they built for us -- it is a showpiece. Beautiful tile work, great suggestions on fixtures. Our bedrooms and living room look brand new. We were doing this within a budget and I can't believe they made it work. Awesome guys too, we miss having them around. Great communication and were always attentive to our budget. Couldn't have asked for better work."

"Prompt response… very professional! I have been without a sink for two weeks, called a few companies and no follow up.. Tejadas was able to fit me in right away.. they were at my home on time and did a great job cutting my granite countertop and positioned my sink to get installed by the plumber… I would definitely hire them again for any future jobs"

"I was very impressed with the professionalism and timely service of Nova Construction. They turned my crumbling cement front steps into beautiful sturdy stone and brick! We are very pleased with the work done in such a timely manner. The owners were super friendly and also listened to our requests to have railings installed. We are getting older and needed them. I would hire them again. It was a little expensive but definitely a much needed improvement!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You should always use caulk instead of grout where the tile meets the wall. This will help your tile installation look great and last a long time. When you accidentally use grout for the corner seams, you end up making the tiles too rigid. So as the wall shifts over time, your tiles have no wiggle room. This can lead to tile damage, which will eventually require you to do at least a partial reinstallation.

It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.

Ideally, you should remove tile before installing hardwood floors, but there are good reasons not to. Removing stubborn tile can be a labor-intensive job that adds days to the project. The subfloor beneath the tiles could also be damaged during the process, meaning you’d have to repair the subfloor before installing the new hardwood floor. 

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

For glass tile, you want to use unsanded grout. Sanded grout is a stronger and grittier cement grout that is great for installing tiles with wider gaps and into joints. However, it is susceptible to scratching glass tile and is more difficult to use in thinner gaps. Unsanded grout, while more expensive, is easier to fit between thin gaps and is less harsh on delicate materials, like glass tile.
