"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."

"Chris from Rochester Renovation did an impeccable job. I am very picky and expected excellent work. He did not disappoint. There wasn't a single scuff on my walls from the removal of the old trim, flooring and toilets. He was very tidy and clean. The carpets were protected with cloths and his work areas were free of garbage. He took all of the old materials with him along with the scrap produced by the job unless there was something I wanted to keep. The tile was installed with precision and care. If he wasn't sure how I'd like something done, he asked. I felt he respected my opinion and included me in the process to ensure my satisfaction. He honored my opinion on the pattern of the tile layout, the grout color, the grout line width, caulk color, trim, etc. I was as included as I wanted to be. His trim work was also impeccable. The toilets were replaced with care and, frankly, it didn't look like he'd ever been there once he was finished...other than leaving me with beautiful floors! I felt comfortable leaving him in my home when we weren't able to be there. As a bonus, he didn't smoke. The tile looks incredible. I chose an odd size (6x24) and he handled it with no issue whatsoever. I have had many compliments on his work. I highly recommend Chris and would hire him again."

"Everything was great from start to finish. We appreciated how much information Jon provided about the process and his recommendations. He gave us a quote if they did everything but took it off if we had time to do the work beforehand ourselves. The day of everyone was respectful of the house and keeping the area clean and the results are amazing. We absolutely recommend and plan on using LNJ floors in the future!"

"Excellent - I ended up hiring someone to help with shopping and finishing piece - waste of time and money. Jill's service was by far the most useful and best value in my decorating process.

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

Yes, but you’ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.

Larger tiles can be difficult to install because they’re heavier and bulkier than their smaller counterparts, which makes them harder to haul around and put in place. Plus, if you don’t install the tiles correctly, they could crack or break. For these reasons, it’s best to hire a professional for large-format tile installation.

Silicone caulk shouldn’t be used in place of grout because each material serves its own purpose. Thanks to its flexibility, silicone caulk is good for sealing around the perimeter of tiled floors, where movement and expansion might occur. However, grout is more durable, making it a better option for the joints in between tiles, which need to withstand constant weight and foot traffic.

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

The cost to install porcelain tile is about $1,930 on average. Porcelain tile prices range from $880 to $3,000 or more. The average cost tends to be higher than ceramic tile because porcelain tile is very durable. Porcelain tile rating also factors into the material cost. Tile ratings are as follows:

  • Grade 0: Walls only

  • Grade 1: Walls and light traffic floors

  • Grade 2: Rooms with light traffic, but not kitchens or hallways

  • Grade 3: Kitchens, hallways, and entryways

  • Grade 4: Any area, interior or exterior

  • Grade 5: Highest durability good for any area, interior or exterior
