"This experience from start to finish of our remodel of our master shower changing from a standard shower to a handicap setup with classy completion has been great. Josh Howard and Nathan Smith were great to work with getting the project setup and designed. They are very caring young men and the installer was very professional, pleasant, quick and cleaned up fantastically afterwards. I have enjoyed having a new and improved shower that is much safer now."

"Hiring Prowess Tile was hands down the greatest experience with a contracted tile installation. About 2 years ago I had a horrible experience with a contractor who I had hired to lay tile in a small space in the basement entry way.  This previous contractor kept pushing back my project due to larger projects that took longer than expected, so he said.  Worst thing was I paid for materials quoted prior to the start of the project.  Job was rushed and quality did not meet expectations. Brad from Prowess Tile came over to consult and quote for a bathroom renovation project.  During the consult, he first heard what our vision was for the project and heard our concerns.  He then provided his expert opinions and advice to better make final decisions, along with suggestions for alternative layouts that ultimately turned out better than what we envisioned.  Brad was honest on timing of project and pricing of the quote, which in my book is admirable in this day of age. Highly recommend Prowess"

"Monte did a terrific job. We appreciated his constant communication throughout the installation. He was efficient in minimizing waste. He practiced daily clean-up, was very freindly, and provided us a beautiful new floor. We would definitely have him back and highly recommend him to anyone with tiling needs."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.

Yes, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.

Yes, it’s possible to cut tile without a wet saw; instead, you can use an angle grinder, a glass cutter, a snap cutter, tile nippers, or a rotary tool with a tile-cutting blade. A manual tile cutter or snap cutter works well for the larger tiles that wet saws are typically used for, while smaller projects might just require nippers or a glass cutting wheel. If you’re working with large quantities of tile, however, power tools are best.

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

Tiles last for around 100 years or more. Tiles on backsplashes can last even longer since they’re less likely to crack under foot traffic or from accidental drops, but even tile in high-traffic flooring can last a century or more with proper installation and upkeep. Porcelain tiles are denser and stronger than standard ceramic tiles, so they’ll last longer, often pushing past the 100-year mark.
