Q: What tile trim should I use?

• <div><p>The tile trim you use will depend on a few factors, including design preferences, budget, and whether the project is DIY or not. You might choose plastic trim if you want an easier DIY job that is more budget-friendly. There are also more color options available in plastic. On the other hand, you might choose metal to match your fixtures or for areas with heavy use.</p></div>

Q: Should tile touch the tub?

• <div><p>Tile shouldn&rsquo;t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it&rsquo;s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/your-shower-tile-really-waterproof.htm">tile shower waterproofing</a>.</p></div>

Q: Where can I buy natural stone tiles?

• <div><p>You can purchase natural stone tiles from your local home improvement store or stone distributor. </p><p>Simply put, natural stone flooring is a high-end style that outlasts its wood and carpet counterparts. After finding a style you love, a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/stone-flooring/">stone flooring company near you</a> can help source and install them for a reliably clean look. </p></div>

Q: Do you grout or caulk where the tile meets the wall?

• <div><p>You should always use caulk instead of grout where the tile meets the wall. This will help your tile installation look great and last a long time. When you accidentally use grout for the corner seams, you end up making the tiles too rigid. So as the wall shifts over time, your tiles have no wiggle room. This can lead to tile damage, which will eventually require you to do at least a partial reinstallation.</p></div>

Q: Where do you start tiling a hearth?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s easiest to start from an edge as it gives you a straight line. A problem may arise if your edge doesn&rsquo;t line up perfectly, in which case it&rsquo;s best to start from the center. Some think that starting tile from the center adds a focal point in the center of the hearth. </p></div>

Owner, Matt, and his crew did a great job in a very timely manner. They installed a new chain-link fence at our new residence. I highly recommend Salt Valley Fence Company. And I might add they had great service after the sale.

I'm not real happy with the windows. I think we get some cool air at night. There were a couple of issues. It took them a long time to come out here. They're cheaper. They should have given better information about the windows they're installing. They were good on price and that's what we needed.

Doug was great to work with and did an excellent job. It took a little while to get the quote, but when it was received it was very accurate. Doug and his co worker spent 9 hours on the install and took the time to make sure everything was as he had promised. I would highly recommend him.
