"Entoni showed up early, ready to work! He worked efficiently and carefully. I asked for a patch on tiles that needed to be replaced. He communicated with me every step of the way to ensure I would have a job that I loved. Unfortunately, my original tiles are discontinued, so we talked about sizes that would work best. Entoni did an excellent job on the patch and gave me a reasonable price. Entoni communicates with you to make sure that he job he does is to your satisfaction. I would recommend him for any tiling project and will use him again for any future work I need done."

"Aldo and his team are extremely professional and respectful. He gave a fair price and did an amazing job. He always comes on time, and cleans up after work. I can’t say enough good this about him and his work and I would recommend him 100%. He’s done everything from plumbing, electrical, drywall and tiles. I hired him to install a kitchen backdrop and rehired him for multiple projects. Just recently he finished installing a new shower stall, vanity, lighting and bathroom floor. He also installed new lighting and replaced the basement drop ceiling with drywall."

"Rave reviews for Dominick and the crew at HD Renovations. We partnered with them on a high-visibility commercial bathroom modification project at UBS Arena in Elmont, and they knocked it out of the park. Dominic showed up right on time with the exact crew size needed, scoped the work accurately, and finished ahead of schedule. When tight counter clearances and tricky fixture fits came up, Dominick didn't hit us with nickel-and-dime surcharges—he took the initiative to fix it on the fly and ensured everything lined up perfectly. Proficient, meticulous, and handled on-site changes with complete professionalism. Reliable commercial trades are hard to come by—HD Renovations is top-tier. Looking forward to the next job with them."

"Words cannot describe how well these guys did and everything they worked with us on. We had several small jobs and deck work. They painted our high vaulted walls and ceilings. They fixed our shower plumbing and added an acces panel for the shower. They installed a new ceiling fan. They re-faced our rotted deck and replaced several joists. Replaced both sets of stairs and set them in concrete. Amazing woodworking, professionalism, punctual, truly good people that you can actually trust. All work was done in a very timely fashion. We will definitely hire again for various projects around the house."

"Back in February 2024 Lovely Homes Renovations did an amazing job! The level of professionalism and the work ethic of the workers were outstanding. I am very happy with our new primary bathroom! Leo listened to what I wanted and the result is amazing. The pricing was fair and transparent, the quality of the work done by Sergio and Leo is fantastic, and the customer service was above and beyond. I would hire them again in a heartbeat."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You can, in theory, tile your fireplace hearth with most tiles. However just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. For example, it’s much better to use unglazed tiles because glazed tiles are more resistant to cracking under extreme heat. Porcelain is more heat-resistant than ceramic, but you can still design the hearth as you like by putting the most heat-resistant tiles directly under the fire and, if it matches your style, add more decorative tiles further from the center of the fire. 

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.

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.

Using caulk is one of the simplest and most recommended methods to finish glass tile edges. It creates an elegant seam between the glass tile and the adjacent area, along with a waterproof seal. With this method, you want to use a caulk color that matches the grout and, along with the grout, compliments the tile. Make sure the caulk line is smooth and even. Alternatively, you can use a bullnose or tile trimming to edge, however, that will also require caulk to seal.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.
