"We needed to repair our bathroom floors and we where very happy that we went with 360 Exact Marki was a pleasure to work with he answered my questions and didn’t give me the run around like most companies will and he shows when he said that he would. Jeremy who worked on our bathroom was very professional and polite and he asked me a question about the way that i wanted to have the floor tiles and I was very impressed with the fact that he took the time to ask me about the way that I wanted them to look, and the time that he spent on it and the quality of the work he did was amazing.I will definitely hire them again and look forward to working with them again in future. Thank you so very much for the amazing job!! Casey Dalcin"

"We wanted a partial bathroom renovation (removing old wall and floor tile set in concrete and replacing the tile and some fixtures) but several large contractors either declined our job as too difficult, or submitted bids far beyond our budget. Buffalo Backsplash owner and head contractor Jarrett Kowal looked it over and said “Sure, we can do that”. He gave us an estimate well within our means and proceeded to do a great job, despite encountering the usual problems of construction in a very old house. Kowal and his crew are uniformly skilled craftsmen and nice guys. We warmly and enthusiastically recommend them."

"My 70 year old bathtub looks brand new and I am so pleased! Chris and Masum did a fabulous job...they were helpful, courteous and professional. They answered every question I had, and cleaned up my bathroom very well. Munro staff, Joanne and Diane, very friendly and gave me instant quote directly over the phone. I would definitely recommend Munro if you want a new and affordable tub and or tile!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Larger tiles can be difficult to install because they’re heavier and bulkier than their smaller counterparts, which makes them harder to haul around and put in place. Plus, if you don’t install the tiles correctly, they could crack or break. For these reasons, it’s best to hire a professional for large-format tile installation.

Glass, ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone are all excellent choices for tiling a shower floor. Some glazed finishes can be slippery when wet. Your tiling contractor can provide more information on which tiles will work best for your shower floor.

Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.

It’s important to leave a gap in the corner when tiling to allow room for tile expansion. Leaving between one eighth of an inch to one tenth of an inch is enough space. 

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.
