"I requested assistance Friday morning to have the backsplash removed in my new home prior to painters and restoration coming in Monday morning. They responded immediately. Although booked solid for the next two weeks, they had a window of time that afternoon. I was very impressed with Brandon's knowledge on a variety of construction things. He was super professional and helpful. They were able to remove a couple base cabinets the cabinet refacer was having trouble removing as well. I was very pleased with BSM Services!"

"Vega Remodeling did excellent work building our deck. The owner, Mr. Narciso Vega was prompt in returning calls, making estimates and adjustments, and executing the project. He took the time to understand what we wanted, answered SO many questions, and even helped us explore options we hadn’t considered. All of this at a very fair price. The finished deck is beautiful, extremely well built, and adds enjoyment and value to our home. We will gladly call on him again for future projects."

Marble and Granite questions, answered by experts

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

It’s easiest to start from an edge as it gives you a straight line. A problem may arise if your edge doesn’t line up perfectly, in which case it’s best to start from the center. Some think that starting tile from the center adds a focal point in the center of the hearth. 

It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.

Installing a marble backsplash costs about $2,200 on average, ranging from $600 to $6,000, depending on the variety of marble and the labor costs to prep and install. Common types of marble used for backsplashes include: 

  • Makrana: $12 per square foot

  • Pink: $25 per square foot

  • Carrara: $40 per square foot

  • Statuatrio: $50 per square foot

  • Cultured: $65 per square foot

  • Travertine: $75 per square foot

  • Danby: $80 per square foot

  • Calacatta: $180 per square foot

Silicone caulk shouldn’t be used in place of grout because each material serves its own purpose. Thanks to its flexibility, silicone caulk is good for sealing around the perimeter of tiled floors, where movement and expansion might occur. However, grout is more durable, making it a better option for the joints in between tiles, which need to withstand constant weight and foot traffic.
