Q: How do I choose the right tiles for my bathroom?

• <div><p>Your tiles will have a significant visual impact on your bathroom, so you&rsquo;ll want to make a thoughtful decision. Once you land on the tile material that suits your needs and budget, you can consider the color schemes you want. Consider whether you want something modern, classic, or eye-catching. </p></div>

Q: Will a cracked tile leak?

• <div><p>Yes, cracked tiles allow water to seep through the substrate or subfloor, leading to mold and mildew growth. It can also cause severe structural damage. At the very least, water damage can cause your tile to lift from the substrate, meaning one cracked tile can lead to several cracked tiles. It&rsquo;s a good idea to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/your-shower-tile-really-waterproof.htm">waterproof tile</a> in areas with direct water exposure or lots of moisture.</p></div>

Q: Should grout be lighter or darker than the tile?

• <div><p>The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.</p></div>

Q: Does tile paint peel off?

• <div><p>Like any painted surface, tile paint can peel and chip over time. However, tile paint can become especially susceptible to peeling during periods of high humidity. Other sources of excess moisture will also cause tile paint to peel faster than normal. And if the tiles are in a high-traffic area, like the entryway floor, tile paint will chip and peel faster.</p></div>

Q: What size tile is easiest to install?

• <div><p>The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they&rsquo;re easier to install than small tiles&mdash;the job is faster and simpler when there&rsquo;s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they&rsquo;re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.</p></div>

"Harris Renovations is our go-to business for all things remodeling. They removed our old kitchen backsplash and replaced it with beautiful subway tile. They also fixed our cabinets so we could fit in a new stainless steel range, since the space from our old range was too small. They also removed a dated wooden valance above our kitchen window. Wendy is friendly and always gets back with us in a timely manner on the phone, and Casey and Craig always take attention to detail in their work. We couldn't be happier with the work they've done on our house and have plans to call them in the future with other remodeling needs. We've already passed their business cards along to friends!"
