"We are very pleased with the quality of work performed by Custom Tile Solutions. Tom arrived on time to provide us with an estimate and listened attentively to our ideas, asked all the right questions and offered suggestions for the work we were looking to have done. The demolition phase went smoothly and Tom worked carefully to minimize noise and dust. The project included bathroom floor tile, custom shower basin with seat and shower wall tiles. All work was done to exacting standards and the result was outstanding. Tom completed the job within the time frame he quoted and departed the work site taking all leftover materials with him. We cannot say enough about the entire experience with Tom and we highly recommend his company."

"Project: replace tile and waterproofing in shower floor. When I had a leak in my shower floor Robert contacted me and came over the same day to look at the problem. It took a week to get the tiles but he came over the next weekend on his own time and did a beautiful job and even picked up the tile and grout saving me a trip. I would recommend him to family and friends. He does high quality work at very fair prices"

"Tom arrived a little early for both appointments. 1st one was to check out the job, needed materials, etc. 2nd one was to do the repair. Unfortunately, the sheetrock under the tiles had gotten wet & deteriorated so that he couldn't complete the job without having to completely rebuild the structure. Gave me an excellent quote for tearout and replacement (tiles extra). Would have gone with him but my landlord brought in her tile man and gave him the job. Tom was personable, professional and quoted very reasonable prices. Have him do your work. You won't be disappointed."

"We could not be happier with our bathroom renovation! From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly detail-oriented. The transformation is absolutely beautiful — every part of the bathroom was completed with care and craftsmanship. What stood out most was how kind, honest, and trustworthy they were throughout the entire process. They communicated clearly, showed up when promised, and truly took pride in their work. It’s hard to find someone who is not only talented but also dependable and easy to work with. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality work and a stress-free experience. Thank you for creating such a gorgeous space for our family!"

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.

Porcelain is a relatively affordable, mid-range countertop material. It typically costs between $50 to $70 per square foot.

Compared to quartz, porcelain is slightly more affordable, as quartz generally ranges from $50 to $200 per square foot. However, lower-quality, builder's grade quartz can be similar in price to porcelain.

Compared to granite, the price can be similar, depending on the quality of the stone. While granite slabs can range from $50 to $200 per square foot, you can find lower-end granite in the same price range as porcelain. High-end granites will cost significantly more.

Porcelain is generally more expensive than laminate, acrylic, and ceramic, but less expensive than high-end slate, concrete, and marble. A key benefit is that porcelain does not require sealing, which reduces long-term maintenance costs.

Penny tile should be sealed to protect the grout from moisture and keep stains from damaging the look of the tile. If penny tile is in a humid or high-traffic area, like a bathroom, kitchen, or entryway, it needs sealant. Any type of tile and grout is best maintained with a sealant reapplied by a pro every one to two years.

Yes, you can tile over existing tiles in a bathroom, but it is not always recommended. For this method to be successful, the original tile surface must be clean, flat, and free of damage such as cracks, unevenness, mold, or mildew. While tiling over existing tiles can save time and money, there are potential drawbacks. The new adhesive may not bond properly, and the process adds extra weight to the wall or floor. Additionally, the increased height of the surface could interfere with door clearances. For the best and most durable results, removing the old tiles before installing new ones is generally the better option.

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.
