"The two installers did a wonderful job including tile placement with grout, matching wood liners to the counters, and cleaning up afterwards. They explained what they were doing and did an excellent job. The sales representative was informative, but I wanted more choices. He was patient with my decision making. We are totally happy with our kitchen floor."

"Ronal and his assistant did a great job. They were punctual, communicative, and did a beautiful job repairing our kitchen wall and installing a tile backsplash with hexagonal tiles, and leaving the area sparkling clean. Would definitely recommend."

"The owner was meticulous when performing the work on our porch renovation. Installed insulation on the ceiling and walls, ship lap on the walls, tongue and groove ceiling in a herringbone pattern. Installed a third electrical outlet. Painted an accent wall, trim around windows and door. Installed an exterior door and laid a new carpet. We couldn’t be happier with the results. We have more work around the house and will definitely be calling on Bluesky when we’re ready to move forward. Thanks to Roland and his staff."

"Did an excellent job.  Started by sanding the walls to get the best finish.  Painting included an accent wall in a darker shade and book shelves.  Were very professional and punctual.  Worked very quickly finishing the job in the early afternoon.  Start time was 7 am.  I highly recommend this firm for any painting needs.

"From the onset, I had an AMAZING experience with Hugo Carpet Service. Mario, the Sr. Sales Manager, was a gem and he values effective and efficient communication. They came out and did an estimate, I asked a few questions and the responsiveness was on POINT. Additionally, I caused a scheduling mishap and they were able to accommodate my schedule changes. I also appreciate that they were able to install the flooring that I already purchased. The floor looks great and I have ALREADY (and will continue to ) recommend them."

"I hired Guillen Reyes to install a vanity and shower hardware as well as patch holes in my wall, from my house being replumbed. They did fantastic work and I ended up expanding the project to having my shower grout redone. They were professional, informative and they cleaned up when they were done. I have already recommended them to my neighbor’s and plan to use them shaking in the future."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.

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.

Glass tile can cost as much as or more than other durable tile types. When choosing the right tile for you, knowing the advantages and disadvantages of each can help you make an informed decision. The pros and cons of glass tile include:

Pros

  • Light-reflecting to add brightness

  • Waterproof and mold-resistant

  • Made from recyclable materials 

Cons

  • High cost compared to similar and more durable materials

  • Usually requires professional installation

  • More easily scratched compared to materials like ceramic and porcelain

It’s important to leave a gap in the corner when tiling to allow room for tile expansion. Leaving between one eighth of an inch to one tenth of an inch is enough space. 

No, you don’t technically need a cement backer board for a wall tiling project, but not using it risks disastrous moisture damage. Cement is naturally water-resistant, whereas drywall soaks it in, which can lead to warping or mold growth. Always use a backer board treated with a waterproof membrane for bathrooms and other chronically damp areas to ensure complete tile shower waterproofing.
