"Floor looks beautiful! Reliable installers, who accommodated every request. They showed up before 8 every day and worked hard to get this difficult job done as quickly as possible. We requested a Versailles pattern, and it looks gorgeous! They were even able to repair cracked tiles in 2 other bathrooms without damage to surrounding tiles. They use a system to level each tile with the adjacent tiles. Looks better in real life, because pictures are a little dark. Note that they don't replace the floor trim, touch up paint or re-install toilets. The quarter round part of our trim was difficult to remove without breaking because the seams were caulked. So the quarter round isn't back on yet and the paint hasn't yet been touched up in these pictures. But even with the toilet removal they added toilet water solidifying crystals (ie. Oatey LiquiLock) so water wouldn't spill. Thank you, Michael and team!"

Customers say: True professional

"I couldn’t be more pleased with the exceptional work done by David Tile Solutions! From start to finish, their professionalism and craftsmanship were top-notch. They installed long floor tiles throughout our space, and despite the challenges posed by the subfloor, they managed to keep everything perfectly level — a true testament to their skill and attention to detail. They also installed tile in our mudroom, which looks fantastic. The team was punctual, worked efficiently, and stayed within our budget. It’s rare to find contractors who not only meet expectations but exceed them, and David Tile Solutions certainly did that. They even made sure to clean up thoroughly before they left, which we really appreciated. If you’re looking for high-quality tile installation, fair pricing, and a hassle-free experience, look no further than David. Highly recommended!"

"This is the second time I have hired Domenico with Dolce Casa to install some flooring. He installed tile and backsplash in my kitchen and then wood flooring throughout the house. Domenico is very professional and friendly. His work is very diligent and the outcome is fantastic. All the rooms that he has worked on look incredible. I absolutely plan to hire Domenico for any future projects. All around great experience working with him."

"We had an awesome experience with 919Tile. They removed a seat in the shower which was installed wrong, and was leaking, and replaced the tile to make the shower so much better than it was before. Would definitely recommend."

"Great honest contractors. They did my bathrooms, hot water heater, unclogged my house drain and they did a French drain so my basement is not wet anymore. I already hired them to do my whole roof in the spring. I will hire them anytime."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You have creative freedom when it comes to your tile trim. If, however, you are considering skipping tile trim, please think twice about that. It is good practice to install tile trim, whether on walls or flooring. Think, too, about the aesthetic you are going for and choose a trim type and color that will help enhance the space.

Yes, you can use paint if you want to refresh your tile countertops. However, you must be mindful of the type of paint you use. Look for options explicitly created for tile that are also waterproof and durable. Over time, the paint will chip, so this is not considered a long-term solution for busy kitchens.

No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn’t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.

If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it’s in good enough condition to lay new tile.

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

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’s a good idea to waterproof tile in areas with direct water exposure or lots of moisture.
