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."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

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). 

Tile countertops can be an excellent and budget-friendly option for a kitchen, provided they are installed correctly. It's important to choose tiles, such as ceramic, that are heat-, water-, and scratch-resistant. When the grout is properly sealed, it will resist stains, making the surface easy to clean. Tile is also considered a sustainable material. For a cohesive kitchen design and added protection, you can pair a tile countertop with a matching tile backsplash.

Lack of durability is the most significant downside of painting tile. However, a painted tile backsplash doesn't see the same kind of action as, say, painted flooring tiles. For backsplashes, the durability of the finish is crucial because they often require cleaning. However, you can minimize the durability problem by using mild cleaners and water on the painted surfaces.

Installations typically take 1-3 days, depending on area size; repairs are usually completed sooner if the issue is localized.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.
