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!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Travertine is a natural stone, while porcelain is ceramic. You can enjoy the best of both worlds with porcelain travertine tiles. Some people prefer porcelain to travertine because it doesn’t require regular maintenance and it’s easier to clean. Porcelain travertine looks like the real thing but only costs $3 to $6 per square foot.

Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.

Yes, but you’ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.

No, you don’t technically need a cement backer board for a wall tiling project, but not using it risks disastrous moisture damage. Cement is naturally water-resistant, whereas drywall soaks it in, which can lead to warping or mold growth. Always use a backer board treated with a waterproof membrane for bathrooms and other chronically damp areas to ensure complete tile shower waterproofing.

Tiles last for around 100 years or more. Tiles on backsplashes can last even longer since they’re less likely to crack under foot traffic or from accidental drops, but even tile in high-traffic flooring can last a century or more with proper installation and upkeep. Porcelain tiles are denser and stronger than standard ceramic tiles, so they’ll last longer, often pushing past the 100-year mark.
