"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."

"Haven’t had the install yet, but they came and quoted on the same day and the sales rep, Charles, was really wonderful! We needed the stairs done soon and they’ll be able to install them early next week! Exactly what we needed, and a great price!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Figure out how much tile you need by measuring the backsplash area. Measure the height and length in feet and multiply to get the square footage. Don’t make adjustments for outlets or small cutouts but subtract the square footage for windows or other large obstructions from the total. To account for waste, get 10% more than your calculation.

No, painting shower tile doesn’t last and is better reserved as a temporary solution to refreshing the look of old tiles. Shower tile paint may last around one to five years, depending on how well you prep the surface before painting, the type of paint you use, the type of tile in your shower, and how often you use the shower.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

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.
