"Gilberto’s company painted the entire interior of my house, including kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities. They retiled my walk-in shower and garden tub surround, installed new granite countertops in bathrooms, replaced lighting and mirrors baths. They also installed a tile backsplash in kitchen. Their work was high quality and the always left the job sue neat and clean. Workers showed up when they said they would and completed the job on time and within budget. I would highly recommend them!"

"Installation Pro is an outstanding company, and I believe the best one that I have ever dealt with on any home project. Jason and Eric essentially rebuilt my deck: new floorboards, moved my steps and made them more senior-friendly, and installed black, aluminum handrails that matched my front porch railing and backyard fence. It turned out perfectly and was exactly what I wanted! It is beautiful. They also installed a back door and repaired and wrapped (in vinyl) my basement door which had had wood rot. It looked like an entirely new door and frame. I just cannot recommend this company enough. Jason always called me and arrived exactly when he said he would, the workmanship was high quality, Jason and Eric were both so pleasant, friendly, and polite. They worked very efficiently and cleaned up after themselves each day. It was refreshing to deal with such a reliable, professional company that exhibited such an excellent work ethic. I will be using Installation Pro for my next project and you should too."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they’re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn’t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn’t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.

Yes, you can install a backsplash directly onto drywall, provided the wall is properly prepped, clean, and dry. For best results, especially in kitchen areas, your walls should be made of moisture-resistant drywall, often called green board. If your current wall isn't moisture-resistant, it's recommended to replace it before installing the backsplash. For even greater protection against water damage, you can remove the existing drywall and install a tile backer board or cement board instead. While properly installed standard drywall is typically strong enough to support a backsplash, some local building codes may require water-resistant materials in kitchen areas, so it's a good idea to check.

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.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.

If the hearth ends against a wall, you can use a tile cutter as you normally would. However, if the edge of your hearth ends with no surface pressing against it,you may want to look into rounded tiles. These give a smooth edge to your hearth and make sure cut edges aren’t visible. You can also see if the tile you have has pieces that have been glazed or rounded on one edge. You’d then cut the tile and place it normally, with the cut edge facing inward.
