"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!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you’re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option. Cutting dry also means you can apply tile grout sooner, so it’s better for rushed projects.

Glass tile can cost as much as or more than other durable tile types. When choosing the right tile for you, knowing the advantages and disadvantages of each can help you make an informed decision. The pros and cons of glass tile include:

Pros

  • Light-reflecting to add brightness

  • Waterproof and mold-resistant

  • Made from recyclable materials 

Cons

  • High cost compared to similar and more durable materials

  • Usually requires professional installation

  • More easily scratched compared to materials like ceramic and porcelain

Yes, unfortunately, it is normal for wall and floor tiles to crack, especially when you drop heavy items on tiled floors or place heavy objects on them. Tiles are also more susceptible to cracking when ceramic tiles designed for walls are installed on floors, as these are often not strong enough to handle heavy loads from foot traffic and furniture. Similarly, tiles that are installed incorrectly, lack adequate subflooring, or have other installation problems are prone to cracking. To avoid these problems and the inevitable repair and replacement costs they bring, always hire a professional for tile work and follow best practices for installation.

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.

On average, tiling a bathroom involves about 12 hours of labor, usually spread over two to three days to accommodate prep work and curing times. A professional tiler can often complete the installation in 6 to 8 hours, whereas a DIYer might take 10 to 16 hours. The total project time is influenced by factors like the bathroom layout, tile type, and necessary prep work, such as removing old tile. The process includes specific timelines for different areas; for example, tiling a floor takes about six hours, while a shower area can take six to ten hours. It is essential to allow for adequate curing time—typically 24 hours each—for the mortar, grout, and caulk, which is why the project extends over several days.
