"Entoni and his team were great. They had few unforeseen challenges once the job started but figured it all out and kept the project moving. They delivered a fantastic finished tile install for my project. I highly recommend them."

"We were extremely happy with the work performed by H&M. Moises, Hector and crew were courteous and did whatever needed to please us. They did most of the renovation in our condo......painting, installation of bathroom cabinets, sink, installed tile floor, etc. They also installed vinyl flooring in our kitchen, living and dining rooms. They had a plumber replace our heating baseboard, I would highly recommend H&M if you want excellent work done!!"

"Olvin and his crew were very hard working. They did an excellent job. Olvin himself is an amazing tile setter and we are very happy with the finished job. I would recommend Owen to anybody looking for a ceramic tile job."

"Here's a polished version of your review for the tile installer: --- I hired Custom Tile Work to install my backsplash, based on a recommendation from the tile store where I made my purchase. Vince did an outstanding job. He was meticulous with every cut, cleaned up each day, and was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Custom Tile Work for any tile installation needs."

"They replaced my bathtub, installed a new vanity, put in new lights and painted a wall cabinet. Not only were they punctual, but very polite and reasonable. I highly recommend them and will use them in the future."

"Remolded my entire first floor had laminate flooring, kitchen and bathroom, renovation, cabinets, backsplash, etc. Alex, Davies, Rich and Juan were very professional, knew what they were doing, and we’re very respectable and kind. Did excellent work cleaned up after wards & we were very satisfied. The owner of RIJ’s was here all the time mostly overseeing his workers and picking up the correct materials (kitchen cabinets, bathroom, stone, and accessories, etc. ) needed to make it all come together. Paul, who was RIJI’s Plumber Did an outstanding job."

"This was my second job with Andy and he was (again) spectacular. He came over quickly and started work right away. He made sure that everything in the area was cleaned off, and super-reinforced to prevent this from ever happening again, and also made sure to independently reinforce the recently installed LED panels. Janni, Michael and Peter were wonderful to work with; they cleaned out all the junk every day and washed everything down when they all finished. The old linoleum floor tiling was also replaced (since some had gotten damaged when the ceiling fell down) - everything looks absolutely beautiful - Andy and his guys are superb craftsmen and I recommend them wholeheartedly."

"I had two separate bathroom jobs done by Kazi and Rahat construction: one bathroom needed a wall rebuilt and retiled (after plumbing work), a new vanity installed and a bathtub reglazed; the other bathroom was a gut renovation. The first project (the 'easy' one): the wall was rebuilt and retiled beautifully: penny tiles had to be replaced, and the job was immaculate: the tiles were laid so nicely that they served to highlight how poorly the original tiles had been installed. I badly needed a new bathtub, but I loved the floor tiles in the bathroom and could not find matching replacement tiles anywhere: Kazi suggested a reglaze on the existing tub, which would allow me to keep my floor, and the tub now looks even cleaner and shinier than new. Vanity was installed even after some tricky plumbing requirements were dealt with - a new coat of paint was also applied, and the bathroom looks amazing. The second bathroom was a bigger project: absolutely everything was removed, a new floor needed to be made since the existing one was slanted, insulation was done and the walls and door were reframed. Waterproof walls were added around the shower along with a new window. The the tiling began - I chose what turned out to be the tiniest tiles for the shower wall, and again, the installation was just about perfect: there are no lines out of whack or gaps in the tiles. The rest of the room was done in subway tiles, which also were laid perfectly. The floor was tiled, a new vanity was installed, along with a medicine cabinet set into the wall and two new lights, a shelf, towel rack and TP holder. Ceiling and walls were painted as well - the final project exceeded even my expectations, and I could not be happier with the end results. Kazi's team were always on time, respectful and pleasant (they dealt well with my older stubborn dog and I managed to work from home with little to no interruption, even when the work being done was on the same floor as my office!). Andres, the man who did all the work in both bathrooms, is highly skilled and a truly patient worker, his tile work is outstanding (I did not have easy tiles to install!). Kazi was on site at least twice a day and was always reachable by phone or text. His team was willing to install all materials I had chosen and offered really good feedback and advice throughout the duration of both projects. I definitely recommend Kazi and Rahat Construction and will definitely be using them again for my next project."

Backsplash Installation 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.

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.

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.

The best types of tiles for a shower are ceramic and porcelain tiles. These materials are durable, water-resistant, and easy to maintain, making them ideal for wet environments. Porcelain tiles are slightly more durable than ceramic. Both options come in a wide variety of styles, so you can achieve the perfect look for your bathroom.

Terracotta tile is a broad term for clay tile that’s been fired in a kiln, and Saltillo tile is a specific type of terracotta tile produced in Saltillo, Mexico. In addition to Saltillo, terracotta tile comes in a range of other shades and styles. You’ll often find it used in buildings throughout Mexico, southern Europe, and the western United States.
