Customers say: Quick response

"Started out not to good. He had to rip up half of my kitchen wall to make level for backslash.Home Depot sold me half of tile with different color. Globus went to HD to solve the problem with tile. It took HD one more extra day to find out right material. But not only did He do everything to make me happy but exceeded my expectation. I will be referring my family and friends. The FactPass Contraction was professional and courteous about job explained to me step by step how job going to be done. He worked without a break all day. I was very happy with end product.

"Gidawe Drywall was an incredible team! David and his crew did amazing work, finished ahead of schedule, even with the added work I asked them to do. They are reliable and extremely trustworthy. I was a customer that wasn’t able to be onsite with the team while they worked, I granted them access to my home while I was away and had absolutely no issues. They were very caring of our space, diligent to take care of their area and very thorough with clean up. After they completed the project I asked them to look at another possible project while they were there only because they were so professional and did such quality work. You can tell David and his team take pride in what they do, I highly recommend anyone to hire them for any job you need done!"

"Ernesto finished painting the exterior of our Victorian home yesterday and I couldn’t be happier with the quality of work that he and his crew did! He had given me a very fair estimate several months ago and was able to start the job a month before he had predicted. My husband and I were in awe with his amazing attention to detail and thoroughness of every step of the process. It was evident that he holds his employees to the same level of his own work ethics as they all worked very long days and did outstanding work! Ernesto is very personable, great with communication and extremely competent! We have already hired him to do some other jobs for us. I highly recommend his company if you want your painting job to be done in the very best way possible!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Add a T-shaped spacer to each corner of a tile when placing it. You’ll want to nudge the tiles closer together so the spacers are touching each corner. When you’re done installing your tile, you can remove each spacer, wash them, and use them for your next project.

If you’re handling your tile removal yourself, seal the room using painter’s tape and heavy-duty contractor bags to prevent dust and shards from escaping. Use a claw hammer or a pry bar and a mallet to get behind the tile and pry it away from the floor or wall. Once your tiles are all removed, sweep everything into contractor bags for disposal, being careful not to overfill them. Make sure you wear a dust mask, safety goggles, and work gloves to keep yourself safe from injury while you work.

Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.

Yes, it’s always a good idea to keep a box or two of spare tiles after a home renovation project. Tiles can crack from improper installation, heavy foot traffic, and impact from drops. Having some extra tile on hand can make replacement fast, easy, and affordable. Plus, some manufacturers might discontinue particular colors or styles, and slight variations in tile colors between batches could mean mismatched tiles even if your product isn’t discontinued. Having a few spare tiles in storage can help avoid these issues, as well.

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.
