"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."

"Carlos did the quote for the paneling, chair rail, and painting the first floor of my house. He came for a quote promptly on Monday after my Saturday inquiry. He and his team came in, did the job right, exactly to our specifications. He worked efficiently and politely. He also pivoted mid-job with a reasonable price increase for the added labor of a tweak my wife needed added. House looks great. Very worth the price he quoted for excellent services rendered. We’ll be using him to do our herringbone subway tile backsplash next! Thanks, Carlos!"

"We had a bathroom remodel including installation of walk in shower and vanity. Also new floor. Scott was on time for our estimate and started on the date we were given. He kept us informed of his schedule along the way as each component of the remodel moved along. Scott did an excellent job with all the work, especially the tile. The tile work in the shower and floor is beautiful. We couldnâ t be happier with the quality of his Work (craftsmanship) and professionalism."

"Very well. I was skeptical at first but Mr Miller put me at ease by sending his information and was very transparent. He said he would be at the location at a specific time, and was. Mr. Miller did a great job staining and keeping me informed of his progress through sending pictures and calling me. I would highly recommend him to anyone and will be using him again for my future projects."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn’t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.

If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it’s in good enough condition to lay new tile.

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

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.

Flooring transition strips can be secured to the subfloor using glue, nails, or screws. For a more secure installation, especially in high-traffic areas, using screws or nails is recommended as it reduces the risk of slippage. However, if aesthetic appeal is a priority, glue provides a cleaner, more seamless finish without any visible holes or screw heads.

The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they’re easier to install than small tiles—the job is faster and simpler when there’s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they’re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.
