"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

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.

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

Glass, ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone are all excellent choices for tiling a shower floor. Some glazed finishes can be slippery when wet. Your tiling contractor can provide more information on which tiles will work best for your shower floor.

Grout lines should typically be between 1/8 to 3/16 inch thick. This ensures enough room for the grout to dry properly and makes them wide enough to look clean and professional. If grout lines are too small, it can be easier to see imperfections in the spacing. 

Lack of durability is the most significant downside of painting tile. However, a painted tile backsplash doesn't see the same kind of action as, say, painted flooring tiles. For backsplashes, the durability of the finish is crucial because they often require cleaning. However, you can minimize the durability problem by using mild cleaners and water on the painted surfaces.
