"I cannot say enough about Edgar Diaz and his crew. He tore up my wood floor and replaced it with porcelain tiles in a pattern to blend into the rest of the room – all from a picture I showed him. The old underflooring was poorly done and he created a smooth, flat surface for the tile. He took up tiles that were not quite right and made it perfect. I just love it!"

"The Babcock's have worked on our home over the past six years. From remodeling, to renovation, to repair work. In 2017 they installed a tremendous flagstone and brick courtyard which truly brought the house and garden together. The Babcock family are honest, professional, hardworking people, dedicated to pleasing their clients and a delight to work with. We highly recommend the Babcock's, not only for their building expertise but also for their friendship."

"Javier and his team did a beautiful job installing Saltillo tile in the living room and tiled the staircase. They were on always on time and always professional. Work was finished on time. Javier went the extra mile in planning and making sure we were happy every step of the way. I highly recommend him and his work."

"I am so happy with the BCI Acrylic product. There were so many options to choose from. I have found it to be low maintenance and very easy to clean. I had two showers remodeled and I am very satisfied. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a bath remodel."

"We had our original, 31 year old cheap, fiberglass one piece shower replaced by Statewide. All the men that we worked with on this project were all very friendly, yet professional. The worker that installed our beautiful, light gray shower with modern brushed chrome hardware was excellent in his work. He laid down huge cloth walkways so he wouldn't track through the house. He was very careful and cleaned up everything each day. We are very pleased with the new shower and feel it is a real upgrade which will help when we sell the house."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Tiling can be DIY with the right tools and skills, but challenges like ensuring evenness and appropriate adhesion often warrant professional handling.

Yes, it would be best if you waterproofed your shower walls before tiling. The cement backing board behind the tile is not waterproof; it’s only water-resistant. On top of your tile backing board, be sure to use a waterproof shower membrane before you start installing your shower tiles.

Whether you want to match your tile trim with grout comes down to your personal preferences. If you match the two, it can help your tiles to stand out while providing a clean, cohesive look. On the other hand, you might opt to match your tile trim with your tiles. The best option will depend largely on your tile design, as well as how it fits overall with the rest of your room.

Per the International Code Council, walk-in shower floors should have a minimum slope of 1/4-inch per foot (or a 2% slope) towards the drain. The slope should be no steeper than 1/2-inch per foot (or a 4% slope). This helps safely direct water into the drain rather than all over your bathroom.

When working on your bathroom floor tiling, you should always tile the floor first and then refit the toilet afterward. This has both practical and visual advantages—the tile will have a better seal, and the installation will look cleaner.

On the other hand, when you try to cut the tiles to fit around the toilet, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. It’s a lot more work, it’s hard to be precise, and mistakes or miscalculations can lead to future moisture damage to the tiling, grout, and subfloor.
