"We had an amazing experience with Elite Tile. Michael was responsive during the entire quoting and planning process. Jayson, the installer is one of the nicest people we've met during our house renovation process. He was very professional and detailed with his work. We had old 70s flooring removed, toilets replaced, a vanity replaced, and tile installed -- all through Jayson. We can't recommend Elite Tile enough!"

"It went perfectly. We just needed tile around the top and sides of a new shower. The tile was perfect. Cost was appropriate. Jose and his son were polite. We would hire them again."

Customers say: True professional

"David was the consummate professional. I had three different tile guys give me quotes. David was the only one, while here for the estimate, who took my tile out of the box and started discussing how the project needed to be done. He and his partner were full of ideas and incredibly helpful. This was all before i told him he had the job. Needless to say, he did a fantastic job. The tile has only been in a week and we’re getting so many compliments. Even our plumber came in and said it was the most beautiful tile he’d ever seen. Just saying, you can’t go wrong with David. Hope to post pictures when the lights go in. Highly recommend. Will use him again."

"Charles arrived on time with plenty of samples to help me decide which type of flooring would work best in the rooms we wanted to have done. He gave me several options with price breakouts, which was extremely helpful. Floors in our 3 bedrooms and a hallway were installed in one day! That included removing old tile and old carpet, then installation of new laminate. The professionals who installed the flooring worked steadily without stopping the whole day. We?re thrilled with the new flooring and we?re thrilled to know exactly where we will go when we?re ready to have new floors installed in our kitchen and living room. Thank you, Empire Today!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, unfortunately, it is normal for wall and floor tiles to crack, especially when you drop heavy items on tiled floors or place heavy objects on them. Tiles are also more susceptible to cracking when ceramic tiles designed for walls are installed on floors, as these are often not strong enough to handle heavy loads from foot traffic and furniture. Similarly, tiles that are installed incorrectly, lack adequate subflooring, or have other installation problems are prone to cracking. To avoid these problems and the inevitable repair and replacement costs they bring, always hire a professional for tile work and follow best practices for installation.

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.

How long painted tiles last ultimately comes down to the quality of the paint job and how much wear and tear the tiles get. It’s possible the paint job will only last about six months if the tiles are in a high-traffic area and they weren’t properly cleaned, sanded, and primed prior to painting and sealing. Well-painted tiles in a low-traffic area should last at least a year.

Glazed ceramic tiles don’t need to be sealed because the glazing already offers some protection against moisture. Unglazed ceramic tiles need to be sealed to keep the porous tile safe from moisture and staining. However, both types of tile can benefit from sealing. Sealant can make the tiles easier to keep clean and offer more resistance to water, spills, and stains.

It’s not necessarily normal for tiles to lift, although it’s one of the common issues people may have with their tile flooring. Tiles correctly installed by pros with expansion joints should not lift over time. However, if the installation was done poorly, you might see tiles tenting or lifting as the house settles. This is more common in high-moisture areas with extreme temperatures.
