"Jared and His team did a phenomenal job remodeling my master bathroom and spare bathroom. Completely stripping all the old bathrooms out and install brand new tile floors and showers throughout. His work was clean and you can tell they take pride in their work. They got it done in a professional and timely manner. I was more than satisfied with the work that was done. When it was all said and done they cleaned up very nicely and could hardly tell they ever stepped foot inside. I will definitely hire him again."
"From quote process to finished product everything went really smooth and quick. They did a great job on our backsplash in a short amount of time and it looks fantastic! If we’re ever in need of tile work again, they’ll be our first choice! Highly recommended!"
"Dan and his team were excellent. They were very communicative and had good ideas for various floors. The tile and new wood staining came out great. I would definitely use them again. Dan was sure to make sure everything came out right - even redid a good portion of the stain when we thought they might be finished. He definitely expects the absolute best."
"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"
Grout and caulk are commonly used together, especially in bathrooms. Grout goes between the tiles and keeps them sturdy and in place on the walls or floor. Caulk goes in corners or where two different materials meet (like where the bathtub meets the tile) to create a waterproof seal. However, they are not interchangeable—you shouldn't use caulk to adhere tile and shouldn’t use mortar if you need a waterproof seal.
Yes, but you’ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.
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.
Altering the layout of your bathroom will make a big difference as moving or adding plumbing quickly inflates your total bill. While you can recoup more of your cost (in home value terms) by adding a bathroom, rearranging the layout won’t affect your home’s sticker value. However, strategic placements that allow more light or better flow may increase buyer interest.
Yes, tiling a bathroom is a great way to boost your home's value, especially if you are replacing old or dated flooring. Adding a new tile floor can deliver a return on investment (ROI) of around 56.4%, with some projects offering up to 100% ROI. Buyers appreciate new tile because it provides a modern look and is known for being durable, water-resistant, low-maintenance, and easy to clean. For the best results and highest return, consider hiring a professional, as tiling mistakes can be very noticeable and detract from the value.
