"Excellent work. Phillip's team did a ceramic tile surround, wall repair, tile to carpet transition, and crown moulding. Everything beautifully completed in an incredibly efficient manner. I highly recommend PROFI."
"Tanya the representative was knowledgeable and efficient. She came out to my home at my convenience to do the estimate, which was immediately. She was friendly, helpful with design, measurements for supplies and very responsive with communication by phone, text and email. I was very impressed by her efficiency. The value of their services beat the price of everyone else, even some of the "handymen" that were not specialists in ceramic."
"Dmitri and the entire crew were incredible! The quote was more than fair, he was great about keeping in communication, on time, and so consultative to ensure they job they did resulted in a beautiful floor, which included a surprise replacement of some soft sub flooring - thank goodness for their quest for perfection! Even that, when they could have had the opportunity to hit me with a big bill for something that absolutely needed to get done, his quote was so fair for all the extra work and materials that were required. (I would have expected to pay more). They have an eye for design! When they opened the boxes of travertine, they noticed a pinkish tone to many of the tiles (natural to that stone) that didn't blend well with the gold and beige tones of the rest of my kitchen, stopped what they were doing, and questioned it. I ordered a new shipment of tile that worked - thank goodness again they halted the progress to ensure it was exactly what I wanted. They were so kind about the delay (and honestly, likely a waste of their time that day), and patient as we waited for the new tile to arrive. Once it arrived, they quickly fit me back into their busy schedules and got the job done. Again, they consulted, and intentionally delayed the hook-up of the thermostat for the heated floor to give the tile time to cure, noting if I get impatient and turn it on, it might crack the tile! So grateful again that they delayed that, and made a special trip back to simply wire up the thermostat to protect my tile. They were always left the job tidy, and did a great job of sealing off the construction area during the demo phase. My new floor is absolutely perfect and even with the wood floor next to it. They are such nice people, fair, and easy to work with. I have already recommended Cutting Edge Remodeling to others, and will hire them again whenever I need them. I seriously can't say enough good about them!"
"4 days after moving into our new townhome we dicovered a toilet flange had been leaking, for some time, and caused the subfloor below it to rot. We had to tear out some tiles, and install new subfloor. We had some tile left over from the original owner, and needed someone to install them. Talked to Jessie at Precision Tile, and fortunately he could come the next day. He did a great job of quickly installing backer board, thinset, Tile and grout at a fair price. Tile turned out great, and we were able to reset the toilet. Unfortunately the grout wasn't a perfect match with the old grout, but that was corrected with a grout colorant product. Overall very satisfied."
"We had a small kitchen backsplash project with ceramic and glass tile and aluminum trim. Alex fit us in on his day off and did an excellent job. We hadn't picked the right grout and he helped us get the right type even though it may have slowed him down. The job was all done in one morning and it looks great! Even though it was a smaller job Alex was very conscientious and took the time to do it right. I would definitely use him again and refer him to others."
"I recently hired Star Bath Systems for a complete bathroom remodel, and I could not be more pleased! From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and committed to ensuring everything was done above and beyond what we asked. What really stood out was their expertise in ADA modifications. I needed the remodel to be fully accessible, and they exceeded my expectations. They installed a walk-in shower with grab bars, a comfort-height toilet, a lowered vanity, and everything needed to make my mother feel comfortable. The modifications were seamless and integrated perfectly with the overall design, so the bathroom feels both functional and stylish. The quality of the materials used was top-notch, and you can tell, they definitely do not cut corners. Every tile, fixture, and finish was carefully chosen and installed just right. I was also impressed by their attention to detail and the cleanliness of the worksite there was minimal disruption to my daily routine during the project. Customer service was another highlight, and this is the biggest one for me! They kept me updated throughout the process, and I always felt comfortable reaching out with questions or concerns. They were patient with my requests and truly listened to my vision, helping me make informed decisions along the way. Overall, my experience was fantastic. The bathroom is not only accessible but also a beautiful, functional space that perfectly suits my and my family needs. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for high-quality, customer-focused bathroom remodeling."
"Footprints Floors did an excellent job installing my kitchen ceramic tile backsplash. Gary, the owner, arranged a time to look at my project, discuss what I would like done, made suggestions and answered all of my questions. His quote was very reasonable. He explained the process of the installation, how long the project would take, etc. He was in communication with me and gave me updates as the project moved forward. Gary is very personable, reliable and I got the sense that he truly enjoys meeting people and takes pride in providing excellent workmanship. I cant say enough good things about the installer. He was polite, precise and a hard worker. His attention to detail was impressive. He prepped the area and cleaned up the area when he was finished. His workmanship is outstanding. My new backsplash is stunning. I would not hesitate hiring Footprint Floors in the future."
"Other contractors hardly call back especially for small jobs, but Twin City Tiling called right away and came out to view and quote the work. The small job was quickly scheduled and is now done. Looks nice!"
"These are the projects they have done for me : large privacy fence, remove window install door, 2 small porches with railings, 2 barn door installs, storm door install and now our new bathroom vanity. JP and his VERY talented group are 5 star all the way!"
When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.
Many homeowners have successfully retiled a bathroom themselves. It can be a challenging but rewarding process, but it’s best for someone who already has at least intermediate DIY skills.
Most professional shower tile installations take between six and eight hours, depending on the size and complexity. Most projects get completed in a single workday. DIY-ing the project takes around three to four days or roughly 16 hours. However, this will vary based on the skill level of the person completing the work.
Yes, you can tile a shower as a DIY project, and you can save hundreds of dollars in labor costs by doing so. However, you’ll need to rent or buy quite a few tools and supplies for the job, including a saw, tile nippers, and a new shower pan. In terms of the work itself, you should be prepared to tackle a variety of different tasks, including measuring and ordering materials, removing old tile, waterproofing the wall, adding rows of tile, grouting, and more.
Larger tiles can be difficult to install because they’re heavier and bulkier than their smaller counterparts, which makes them harder to haul around and put in place. Plus, if you don’t install the tiles correctly, they could crack or break. For these reasons, it’s best to hire a professional for large-format tile installation.
