"I recently hired Livingston Tile Setters for a complete tile installation in my home, and I couldnâ t be happier with the results! From start to finish, Jared demonstrated top-notch professionalism, punctuality, and attention to detail. He took the time to understand my vision and offered helpful suggestions that elevated the project. The quality of his craftsmanship is outstanding and the result exceeded my expectations. Not only was the work done beautifully, but he was also respectful of my home and kept the workspace clean. His dedication to getting the job done right, on time, and within budget was impressive. I highly recommend Livingston Tile Setters to anyone in need of tile work."

"I first used All Phase to have a decrepit old outside wall with windows torn down and rebuilt. From the minute I met Zach, I felt comfortable hiring him. He listens, understands and shares his knowledge on the best approach for the best results. He stayed in constant contact and get this, he showed up on time, every time!! The professionalism, workmanship, efficiency and results are amazing. Since that day, I have hired All Phase for outside painting, plumbing and some minor electrical work. I even called him when I was having problems with my pool filter. It was a task most people wouldn't have bothered with. Zach was nice enough to showup again for me. I've already scheduled him to do a major front porch project this spring. I have recommended him to friends and neighbors and every single one hired him on the spot. In fact, they've all thanked me for the referral. I highly recommend calling All Phase today. Not only will you be satisfied, you'll be happy you did...guaranteed!!!"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

Figure out how much tile you need by measuring the backsplash area. Measure the height and length in feet and multiply to get the square footage. Don’t make adjustments for outlets or small cutouts but subtract the square footage for windows or other large obstructions from the total. To account for waste, get 10% more than your calculation.

Your floors should be completely level for tile, otherwise you risk damaging the tiles in the future. When there are even small gaps or hills in the subfloor beneath the tile, this puts more pressure on the tile when you walk around on the floor. With repeated traffic, the tiles are at risk of cracking, and you’ll have to deal with tile repairs sooner than if the floor was completely level.

Installations typically take 1-3 days, depending on area size; repairs are usually completed sooner if the issue is localized.

When cleaning porcelain tiles, avoid products that contain ammonia, bleach, and other harsh chemicals. Acid-based cleansers can damage the tile, though you can clean them with a diluted mixture of one-quarter cup white vinegar mixed with one gallon of hot water. It is important always to use a soft-bristled brush or sponge, since hard bristles and steel wool can scratch the tile.
