"Daniel expertly replaced the old, worn-out tile in our mudroom and bathroom, as well as the tile on our fireplace hearth. From start to finish, his professionalism and skill were truly impressive. The quality of his workmanship is exceptional – the new tile looks fantastic, and the installation is flawless. One of the things we appreciated most about Daniel was how incredibly neat he worked. He took significant measures to minimize dust and kept the work areas as clean as possible throughout the entire process. This was a huge relief and made the renovation experience much less disruptive. Furthermore, Daniel was a model of reliability. He consistently arrived when he said he would and was always on time. He worked non-stop with impressive efficiency and actually finished ahead of schedule, which was a pleasant surprise. Beyond his excellent work ethic and skill, we also found Carolina Construction and Tile's prices to be fair and reasonable for the high quality of service we received. Overall, we are absolutely thrilled with the work done by Daniel and Carolina Construction and Tile. Daniel is a true craftsman who takes pride in his work, and it shows. We will definitely be using him again for future projects during our ongoing home restoration and wholeheartedly recommend Carolina Construction and Tile and Daniel to anyone looking for top-notch tile work."

"Will and Steve were wonderful to work with: they showed up on time, provided a very reasonable quote, and my husband and I were absolutely delighted with the quality of their workmanship. Our Master Bathroom floor looks new again; likewise our laundry room and upstairs bathroom. I am already recommending them to my close friend for tile repair in her kitchen."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

You can, in theory, tile your fireplace hearth with most tiles. However just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. For example, it’s much better to use unglazed tiles because glazed tiles are more resistant to cracking under extreme heat. Porcelain is more heat-resistant than ceramic, but you can still design the hearth as you like by putting the most heat-resistant tiles directly under the fire and, if it matches your style, add more decorative tiles further from the center of the fire. 

Yes, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.

Regardless of the material, basic square tiles will never go out of style. Neutral colors like white, grey, beige, and black will always be in demand in residential and commercial settings. Certain designs, like herringbone and hexagonal patterns, are considered timeless. Porcelain and porcelain-like tiles will also never go out of style.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.
