"Chuck did an amazing job on our re-tiling in the bathroom A true professional, chuck really knows his craft. I personally would highly recommend him to anyone who needs Restoration work ( 5 stars from me )"
"GST did a great job! Our floor had dips which would make it difficult to install the large tiles. They were able to flatten the floor so the tile could be properly installed. They did a great job. We will use them again. I have already recommended them to others."
"This is the second time I hired Mario and Christian to finish off the house with mostly ceramic tile. The guys were on time and ready to go. It took a day and a half to complete the bedroom and I have to say it looks fantastic. My home is now complete with mostly tile which is easy cleanup for me. Great work and would rehire again."
"Matt was professional, nice and timely. His work was excellent and of high quality. Matt replaced tile wall backing and tile on one shower wall. He regrouted and cleaned all the grout in the shower. Great job."
"Nick was Outstanding!. He removed & replaced 2 floor tiles in our bathroom. He was hesitant to take the job, because it involved replacing tile that had been removed to repair NU-HEAT heated floor. He told us the risk, but took on the job. He came on time, completed the job & cleaned up after. We would recommend Nick for any tile work. THANK YOU Nick!"

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.
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.
Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.
Deciding between using a shower pan or tile will likely come down to the shower’s design. You can learn how to install a shower pan liner, but it has a standard look similar to most other showers, though there is some flexibility for material and color choices. Tile, on the other hand, can be customized and is set directly into the shower base. However, a shower tile floor is more difficult to install than a shower pan.
No, you don’t need to remove the old grout before installing new tile over existing tile. In fact, the old grout helps fill in gaps between tiles, creating a more even surface for the new layer. However, it's important to ensure that the grout is clean, solid, and free of cracks or crumbling areas. Damaged grout should be repaired or replaced before proceeding. Cleaning the surface thoroughly and filling any low spots will help the new adhesive bond properly and ensure a smooth, stable installation.
