"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."

"Mr. Ravi, and his office assistant, Theirsa, were very professional, responsive, and accommodating to any concerns or questions I had. I found his pricing to be reasonable, and he provided me with a realistic timeline. I was very happy with the fencing crew he sent. They were respectful, arrived on time, and communicated with me when they would encounter challenges. A special shout out to Yuvin, Dave, and Vijai*, if you have this crew, you will be very satisfied with their workmanship and overall knowledge. I highly recommend Raifa Construction for your fencing needs."

"After he left the project. The mini split air conditioner that he selected and installed did not work. Upon further research, it was actually low-rated for energy efficiency. I picked a better minister, and he complained about fixing it and threatened to have me repair it, and it took four months to get it replaced. I had to use a space heater for the four months that I waited for the repair. Even though that new mini split was already delivered. We had many arguments, and he used foul language. It was unpleasant working with him and unprofessional to work with."

"I recently hired Lovely Homes Renovations to install a brand-new stove, as well as a washer and dryer in my new apartment, and they did a phenomenal job. Leo took the time to explain the different options available and provided a clear understanding of how everything would work. I was extremely satisfied with the quality of their work and the professionalism of their team. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend Lovely Homes Renovations to anyone in need of reliable home improvement services."

"Installation started later than anticipated and took longer than what I was told but the end product was worth it! My floors came out beautifully. I also appreciated the fact that there were no hidden fees and I was able to stay within budget. I would recommend the company."

"I hired Zain and his team to repour the concrete in front of my house. He is extremely professional to work with, and I was always impressed by how he responded to unforeseen challenges, such as Con Edison taking over much of the block halfway through the project. He also built a garden area for me in addition to repairing an iron gate for me that was in disrepair. Highly recommended."

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. 

Penny tile should be sealed to protect the grout from moisture and keep stains from damaging the look of the tile. If penny tile is in a humid or high-traffic area, like a bathroom, kitchen, or entryway, it needs sealant. Any type of tile and grout is best maintained with a sealant reapplied by a pro every one to two years.

Your floors should be completely level for tile, otherwise you risk damaging the tiles in the future. When there are even small gaps or hills in the subfloor beneath the tile, this puts more pressure on the tile when you walk around on the floor. With repeated traffic, the tiles are at risk of cracking, and you’ll have to deal with tile repairs sooner than if the floor was completely level.

Figure out how much tile you need by measuring the backsplash area. Measure the height and length in feet and multiply to get the square footage. Don’t make adjustments for outlets or small cutouts but subtract the square footage for windows or other large obstructions from the total. To account for waste, get 10% more than your calculation.

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.
