"We decided to redo our extremely outdated kitchen at our cape house while i was able to WFH From here during quarantine.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)."

"This is the fourth job I hired them on. Before to fix drawers in the kitchen, cabinet faces, install laminate floors which I had bought material from Lowes. And when the countertops were installed they included a new sink, faucet and grates for the sink. Best price and quality for the price around."

"They did a great job on a counter backsplash. I will hire them again anytime I need tile installation or repair. These guys are real pros. The company owner, Gene, is a good communicator. He answered my calls and texts in a timely fashion. The price was transparent and very reasonable. We easily discussed added work and price adjustments that were all very fair. My kitchen look beautiful."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.

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.

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.

Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.

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.
