"Very nice guys to work with, good communication, and high quality tile work. We have an apartment building with 20 units, and put in new tile in the common areas, including grout and leveling certain spots. We are very happy with our installation, looks fantastic. They were there to give advice when we needed it, and the whole project was a success."

"The team did drywall repair, painting, coordinated plumbing work, replaced cabinetry and installed thermostats. All work was performed on schedule and on budget. When issues arose (as happens with every project), they communicated with us and brought solutions to the table rather than excuses. They are great to work with and their work is fantastic and priced fair. Hire them, you will not be sorry."

"Mr. Ravi, and his office assistant, Theirsa, were very professional, responsive, and accommodating to any concerns or questions I had. I found his pricing to be reasonable, and he provided me with a realistic timeline. I was very happy with the fencing crew he sent. They were respectful, arrived on time, and communicated with me when they would encounter challenges. A special shout out to Yuvin, Dave, and Vijai*, if you have this crew, you will be very satisfied with their workmanship and overall knowledge. I highly recommend Raifa Construction for your fencing needs."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

Yes, it’s possible to cut tile without a wet saw; instead, you can use an angle grinder, a glass cutter, a snap cutter, tile nippers, or a rotary tool with a tile-cutting blade. A manual tile cutter or snap cutter works well for the larger tiles that wet saws are typically used for, while smaller projects might just require nippers or a glass cutting wheel. If you’re working with large quantities of tile, however, power tools are best.

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.

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.

It’s not necessarily normal for tiles to lift, although it’s one of the common issues people may have with their tile flooring. Tiles correctly installed by pros with expansion joints should not lift over time. However, if the installation was done poorly, you might see tiles tenting or lifting as the house settles. This is more common in high-moisture areas with extreme temperatures.
