"Pat and his crew are fantastic! They do some incredible tile work and are very maticulace with their work...which is exactly how you want the people installing your tile to be. They were always there when they said they would be and went above and beyond do get it done right. On top of that they left the place spotless when the job was done."

"Kevin did a great job with the tile we chose. He paid attention to the little details that make a big difference, like pulling the baseboards and tiling up to the walls and then replacing with new baseboard trim. He installed the new vanity we had chosen and tiled under it, instead of around it as the original builder had done. When there was a gap between our cabinets and the floor he worked with us to select the right shade of trim pieces to make it look finished. Our front door needed a special piece made to overlay the tile which he also did. He even helped repair (replace) a leaky valve for the washing machine in the laundry. Bottom line is we could not have been happier with the job. The only caveat for other readers is that he works alone and you'll need to allow slightly longer for the job than others might quote. You won't regret it if you can budget the time."

"Jeremy and his crew were great! Personable yet professional. The job took a little longer due to more subfloor damage than expected. The end result… perfection! I will definitely hire ACQ Home Improvement again, and gladly recommend them to my friends and clients."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

For best results, you should remove the toilet in a bathroom before removing tile or installing new tile. If you don’t remove the toilet, it will be harder to fully waterproof the tile around the toilet, which could increase the risk of mold growth or plumbing leaks. If you have trouble removing the toilet, hire a plumber to help.

There are several tools that you will use together to install tiles. Four of the most basic tools needed in tile installation include a notched trowel for applying tile adhesive, a tile cutter or saw for cutting tiles to size, tile spacers for creating the appropriate amount of space between tiles, and a grout float for applying grout.

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.

Tile floor installation usually takes about 16 hours of active work along with a couple of days of drying time between tile and grout applications.

The amount of time it takes your installer will depend on many factors, including the square footage of the space, the tile material type, and if they need to make intricate tile cuts.
