"Clay worked on our 15 yr old stall shower that we had done little to maintain. He was to replace all the grouting for the tumbled marble floor tile and the grout at the intersection of the floor with all vertical surfaces made up of larger marble tile. We initially discovered that the floor grouting was not drying uniformly. Multiple visits and several work arounds later, only confirmed my confidence that Clay had the experience to bring whatever skills were necessary to more than resolve our grout drying problem. Clay is a PRO, a "People Person", and dedicated to satisfying his clients' needs. My review (prior to hiring ACT ONE) of earlier references, was more than confirmed through performance on our job. I heartily recommend Clay for similar projects. Alan S. Boston"

"Flavors did and outstanding job fixed our badly botched tile work in our bathroom. He is very detailed oriented and you would even know he was there when the job is complete. He is very neat and cleans throughout the project. If anyone would like to be completely satisfied hire Flavius Tile. You won't be sorry.."

"Mario upgraded our bathroom, repaired a damaged wall and installed a bannister. Mario was very hard working, had really good attention to detail, he was very communicative and respectful of our design ideas and our house during the construction process. He is very skilled at what he does and we will definitely hire him again for other projects."

"I saw Craft Design Group working on a job near my office in Newton and asked them for a proposal to remodel my bathroom. Luigi was quick to show up and assess the project and gave me some honest early suggestions which I really appreciated. He soon came back with a proposal on design options, styles, fixtures, colors, and materials. Stunned at the effort and thought that went into the proposal. I was expecting a lot less for a lot more. Luigi and team got to work and kept things really clean and quick to not impact my family which was in the home during the remodel. Luigi kept in constant contact with updates and choices as the project progressed. My home was built in 1930 and has nothing but surprises at every turn. I canâ t speak highly enough to the quality of work the team exhibited throughout the whole project, attention to detail was bar none. There were challenges, like with any project, but I was never concerned and really appreciated the upfront honesty. Bathroom came out amazing and certainly outperformed my expectations. Highly recommend Craft Design Group and I will be returning for bathroom #2 remodel. Project Details: Gut renovation of full bathroom. Removal of sink, vanity, toilet, bathtub, tiled wall, tiled floor and steam radiator. Pretty much to the bones. New insulation, New bathtub plumbing, new bigger deeper bathtub (my two girls love it). Tiled bathtub walls and installed built in shelf using the tile. Installed new drywall where the wall tile was before. Tiled floor, matching tiled bathtub symmetry. Relocated sink electrical outlets and light/fan switches. New sink plumbing, installed new vanity, counter and sink. Installed new wall mounted, modern steam radiator that doubles as towel warmer. Really pretty Benjamin Moore bunny gray paint throughout. Installed towel racks, hand towel and curtain rod. New floor transitional piece to match tile to hallway hardwood."

Customers say: Quality work

"Ornel and Al did a great job and I am very pleased with the outcome. The tile was placed too closely to the electrical outlets and someone had to use a dremel to file the tile so the outlets could be installed, which was a pain. Ornel installed a 3 mural tile over my stove and took great care with the spacing and placement of that. I would hire them again!"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

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). 

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

There are a few different tools you can use to score tiles. Manual tile cutters or tile scribes work well for scoring in straight lines. Tile nippers are one of the best options for scoring because they can make small and irregular cuts that larger tools may not be able to handle.

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.

Installing kitchen countertop tiles on a mold and moisture-resistant cement backer board is one of the best options. When fitted correctly on top of a plywood base, it’s stable and long-lasting. Old-fashioned cement board is economical, cuts neatly and easily with a circular or jigsaw, and screws into plywood without any difficulty.
