"The company replaced a broken ceramic soap dish on the bathroom. As this is an old house, they had to look all over town to find a replacement. While it wasn't a perfect match, I do appreciate the effort that they did to try and find one. The real interesting repair was to a broken counter edge tile. Again because of the age of the broken tile it was not possible to find an exact replacement. Pedro cleaned up the hole in the tile and hand crafted a replacement piece to fit the hole so precisely it's very hard to be where the repair was made! I would definitely use them again."

"Emmanuel is a 'top-notch' professional. He kept his appointments by showing up on time when he did the estimate and when we hired this company to complete the job. Emmanuel replaced 4 tiles in our kitchen as there was very bad damage. The job he did was absolutely wonderful! My husband and I agree that we would hire him again!!"

"Recovery Grout did a great job. They were very honest and charged me less than originally quoted when they saw my shower didn't need as much work as originally thought. I would definitely recommend them."

"I couldn't believe the speed, patience and accuracy shown to me by the staff at Floor Coverings International. They took the marble tile I had and crafted it like true pros in my kitchen. In fact I hadn't gotten enough and they patiently waited while I ran out and got more to put up. The fact that it was herringbone design was too intimidating for me to try and they handled it with ease with minimal waste. They even worked in the rain to get the job done! I recommend these guys for whatever your needs might be because their work is exemplary! Oh, and the cost was MORE than reasonable and handled it all within a week! These guys are awesome. I would be honored to be used as a live reference as well."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

There are several tools that you will use together to install tiles. Four of the most basic tools needed in tile installation include a notched trowel for applying tile adhesive, a tile cutter or saw for cutting tiles to size, tile spacers for creating the appropriate amount of space between tiles, and a grout float for applying grout.

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

There are several low-maintenance shower floor tiles to consider for your bathroom. Stone tiles are easy to keep clean and only need an occasional resealing to keep them looking their best. Porcelain is another low-maintenance choice, as it doesn’t stain easily. Vinyl is also suitable for easy upkeep. On the other hand, one of the highest maintenance options for bathrooms is wood tile.

If you hire a professional to lay tile, you can expect to pay $3 to $15 per square foot for labor. For a 100-square-foot tiling project, that would equal $30 to $150 in labor. These costs may increase if you need extra services (such as tile removal, wall repair, or waterproofing). For example, tile removal costs an additional $2 to $7 per square foot.

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.
