"We decided to redo our extremely outdated kitchen at our cape house while i was able to WFH From here during quarantine. I canâ t say enough good things about Chris and Patrick. Right off the bat i felt so at ease after our initial appointment. their attentiveness to every question or any change i requested to the original plans (Even if it was late at night) was incredible. They were so creative and were always adding suggestions or helpful tips. Every subcontractor they brought in were also great and super helpful. Iâ ve found a forever contracting business that i know and trust at the cape for anything i need. The kitchen came out absolutely beautiful (as well as all the side jobs i requested such as installing new storm doors, etc)."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
On average, tiling a shower costs between $1,800 and $5,000, with most people paying around $2,700. The price of this project depends on multiple factors, including the kind of tile you choose, the size of your shower, and labor rates in your area. If you decide to tile your own shower (instead of hiring a professional), it’ll likely cost $800 to $1,400.
There isn’t a one-size-fits-all best tile for a dog shower. Consider your budget, tile durability, aesthetics, and, most importantly, practicality. Avoid tiles your dog will slide around on. Pebbles are a great non-slip option, but are pricey and tricky to install. Glass might look modern, but it’s not scratch-resistant. Small, floor-rated ceramic or porcelain tiles are economical and have many grout lines that make the surface more slip-resistant. Pick a matte finish rather than a shiny tile if you want it to hide stray mud and hairs better.
There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they’re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn’t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn’t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.
The tile spacing you should use will depend on the tile and where you’re installing it. Choosing the right tile spacers to maintain a consistent gap between your tiles is tricky. Generally, tile spacing shouldn’t be less than 2 millimeters on walls and 3 millimeters on floors because of stress relief requirements. Getting it wrong can result in uneven tiles and early repairs.
If you want your ceramic tiles to be evenly spaced and installation to take less time, spacers are a crucial part of the installation process.
