"Very well. If you use a sink that is not purchased from Pacific Tile (stainless only), be sure it is available early on in the installation process, to ensure it can be installed."
"We did a split project with Kurt and his team. We had a mother-in-law suite and we wanted to turn it into a full size bedroom with half bath instead since we are expecting our second child. They were recommended to us from a friend and I couldn't have been happier. To start, they were able to beat the price of another contracting group in the area by a pretty decent bit, and on top of that, were willing to do more as well. I demo'd the wall, but they took over after that. They moved all of the wall positions and rebuilt the walls to make the smaller bathroom and bigger bedroom. The drywall job was fantastic. John (or Jon) was the one who handled most of that. He hung the walls and smoothed out the mud. He was absolutely meticulous about it too. I haven't seen a smoother drywall job thus far. Kurt also tiled the bathroom which looks fantastic. Level as can be and the grout-lines are perfect. They installed the toilet (which I actually said I would do) as well as the vanity. When they ran electric through, they set me up with a line attached to a switch for a vanity light in case I wanted one and kept it behind the wall marked and ready for me. There are little details like that that make all the difference in there work, prepping for the future and making sure things will last. They left me a nice access hatch to the ceiling and made a nice molding for it which was an awesome addition for when I need to get up there. We said we would paint the rooms, but they wanted to at least prime them, and I'm very happy they did. They fixed a cracking ceiling and re-painted the whole thing too which is an amazing improvement over before. Overall, we aren't unhappy about a single thing. Kurt has been very responsive after-the-job about just questions on general things and that just shows the work ethics and quality of he and his group. Would I recommend them? Absolutely, without a doubt in my mind. Will I use them again? We already have asked and have two more projects for them later this year. If you have a project, HIRE THESE GUYS!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
Tile countertops can be an excellent and budget-friendly option for a kitchen, provided they are installed correctly. It's important to choose tiles, such as ceramic, that are heat-, water-, and scratch-resistant. When the grout is properly sealed, it will resist stains, making the surface easy to clean. Tile is also considered a sustainable material. For a cohesive kitchen design and added protection, you can pair a tile countertop with a matching tile backsplash.
It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.
Bathrooms are naturally moisture-rich environments, so choose a durable, water-resistant tile for your tub surround. Porcelain and ceramic are two popular options that are also quite affordable. Glass is another good option that’s also low-maintenance—you just need a glass cleaner like you would use on the bathroom mirror. Natural stone tile is porous, but it’s still a viable option if you choose it in a glazed version.
It’s easiest to start from an edge as it gives you a straight line. A problem may arise if your edge doesn’t line up perfectly, in which case it’s best to start from the center. Some think that starting tile from the center adds a focal point in the center of the hearth.
Different types of tile cutters may work best depending on the type of tile you are cutting and the size of your project. There are two main types of tile cutters: manual and electric. Manual tile cutters are quick and easy to use for small projects and softer tile materials, but they can only make straight cuts. Electric tile cutters make light work of big projects and can cut through harder materials.
