Q: What tile spacing should I use?

• <div><p>The tile spacing you should use will depend on the tile and where you&rsquo;re installing it. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/choosing-bathroom-floor-and-wall-tile-spacers.htm">Choosing the right tile spacers</a> to maintain a consistent gap between your tiles is tricky. Generally, tile spacing shouldn&rsquo;t be less than 2 millimeters on walls and 3 millimeters on floors because of stress relief requirements. Getting it wrong can result in uneven tiles and early repairs.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a moisture barrier under ceramic tile?

• <div><p>When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.</p></div>

Q: Do you install shower doors before or after tile?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to install a shower door after the bathroom tile is in place to ensure you have accurate measurements. If you try installing a shower door first, the tile might be too thick to install afterward, or the tile will be too thin and create a gap between the shower doors that allows water to leak. With the tile in place first, you&rsquo;ll know the exact shower door size that you need.</p></div>

If you keep it simple with just soap and shampoo, the one shower niche will probably do the trick. But if you&rsquo;re adding scrubs and soaks, you may need to think about installing two or more.</p></div>

Q: How long do porcelain tiles last?

• <div><p>Porcelain tiles can last 60 years or longer. With high-quality tiles and proper installation, your porcelain tiles may even outlive you, making them well worth the initial investment.</p><p>To help your porcelain tiles last longer, you should clean and maintain them regularly. You don&rsquo;t need any harsh chemicals to get the job done. Rather, use a cloth, hot water, and mild detergent.

"Dan is an experienced tile setter who came highly recommended. I hired him to tile a floor and shower in an apartment bathroom. He went well beyond what I expected to create a level and water tight shower and floor in a older building. The tile work was impeccable and he worked around our schedule. We loved his work so much we kept him on to tile our kitchen backsplash. I highly recommend Dan! You will not be disappointed."
