"Ari and his brother were clearly skilled at doing tile work. They were very exact and gave good attention to detail. They were careful to approach the job so that I would be satisfied with the decisions to be made and the outcome. They are reliable, hard workers, and very pleasant."

"We are so happy that we chose Damien and his crew for our basement reno. They were professional and excellent communicators. We had a lot going on...including drywall installation, new flooring and a new closet. The end result was beautiful! We highly recommend Innovation Contracting and look forward to working with them again."

"Lynn has helped me with multiple project. Installing railing, installing a hot water tank after trying to keep an old one running, painting, and more. He’s constantly busy with work but always answers the phone, explains things in depth in a way that homeowners can understand issues occurring, is extremely fair with the cost of his craft, and has experience in just about all areas one can suggest. If you need help with a home project, I’d highly recommend reaching out to All Phase."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all best tile for a dog shower. Consider your budget, tile durability, aesthetics, and, most importantly, practicality. Avoid tiles your dog will slide around on. Pebbles are a great non-slip option, but are pricey and tricky to install. Glass might look modern, but it’s not scratch-resistant. Small, floor-rated ceramic or porcelain tiles are economical and have many grout lines that make the surface more slip-resistant. Pick a matte finish rather than a shiny tile if you want it to hide stray mud and hairs better.

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.

Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you’re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option. Cutting dry also means you can apply tile grout sooner, so it’s better for rushed projects.

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.

The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic. 

For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.
