"I recently had a shower installed by Real Deal Remodeling, and I couldn't be happier with the experience — from the consultation with Lance to the incredible work of Robert, the installer. During the consultation, Lance was professional, informative, honest, and provided exceptional pricing! As for the installation, from start to finish, Robert was everything you could hope for in a professional: meticulous, personable, and impressively knowledgeable. Robert approached the project with true craftsmanship and pride, going above and beyond by working tirelessly in 12-hour shifts to ensure everything was perfect. Despite running into multiple pre-existing issues, Robert never cut corners. Instead, he took the time to walk me through his plan, discuss potential solutions, and make sure every step aligned with my expectations. His openness, honesty, and precision gave me complete confidence that the final product would be exactly what I envisioned — and it absolutely was. Robert also made it a point to include me in the process, checking in regularly to make sure I was satisfied and thoroughly explaining any necessary aftercare and maintenance for the new shower. It's rare to find someone so dedicated and respectful of both their work and their clients. If you're considering any remodeling work, I can't recommend Real Deal Remodeling — and Robert specifically — highly enough. You'll be in the hands of someone who truly cares about delivering quality and making sure you're happy every step of the way."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Glazed ceramic tiles don’t need to be sealed because the glazing already offers some protection against moisture. Unglazed ceramic tiles need to be sealed to keep the porous tile safe from moisture and staining. However, both types of tile can benefit from sealing. Sealant can make the tiles easier to keep clean and offer more resistance to water, spills, and stains.

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.

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.

For professional labor and materials, it would cost between $6,000 and $28,000 to install 1,000 square feet of Saltillo tile flooring. If that’s out of your budget, you could consider laying the tiles yourself or choosing a less expensive type of flooring. For example, vinyl flooring costs just $2 to $7 per square foot, so for a 1,000-square-foot space, you’d pay $2,000 to $7,000.

Options include clay, concrete, and slate tiles. Each offers unique durability, aesthetics, and costs.
