"I was in contact with three other tile installers and ended up hiring Rich for our kitchen backsplash. Professionalism, fair pricing and examples of other well done jobs. I was very pleased with the result!"

"Fernando and his team did a complete gut renovation of a full bathroom in my East Rock Victorian in 2021. I cannot speak highly enough of his professionalism and the quality of work. He coached me through picking out tile, vanity, lighting and fixtures and I was thrilled with the final result. His crew cleaned up every night - above and beyond what any other contractor would do. Months later, water leaked from an old bathroom upstairs to the new bathroom below and Fernando showed up immediately to inspect and repair."

"Nixon repaired two very extensive cracks in our Corian sink that others did not want to deal with. He also fixed more problems that we were not aware of but could readily see when he showed them to us. Nixon saved us the cost of replacing the whole Corian kitchen counter top and potentially future large water damage. He is easy to deal with and provides prompt service."

"After having my existing floors refinished very poorly by another company, I knew I would not be using them to sand and stain brand new unfinished hardwood that I had installed in the rest of my house. I had called Sal based on a recommendation from a contractor. He came to my house the same day and gave me a very reasonable estimate shortly after he left. He was very responsive and easily reachable for any questions I had before and during the work. His crew was neat, effective and did a beautiful job on my new floors. My only regret is not calling Sal sooner and hiring him for the first job. I would highly recommend him and his company and I plan on using them to redo the terrible job that was done on my other floors."

"There was no project too big or small that Nathan didn’t do for me. I hired Nathan when I first moved to Ossining in October and over the last three months he has been incredibly helpful to me. Jobs included installing a vanity; hanging mirrors, pictures, curtain rods, lighting fixtures; resealing kitchen countertops; bolting bookcases to the walls; but the biggest job was installing new recessed lights and relocating my chandelier as well as replacing my kitchen lights. Like I said, there was no job Nathan wasn’t willing to help me with. Being an older widow, I could not have asked for a kinder, more helpful or more professional contractor/handyman. He was respectful, thorough in completing each job, was very reliable and his pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend Nathan King for all your handyman needs."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You should always use caulk instead of grout where the tile meets the wall. This will help your tile installation look great and last a long time. When you accidentally use grout for the corner seams, you end up making the tiles too rigid. So as the wall shifts over time, your tiles have no wiggle room. This can lead to tile damage, which will eventually require you to do at least a partial reinstallation.

Flooring transition strips can be secured to the subfloor using glue, nails, or screws. For a more secure installation, especially in high-traffic areas, using screws or nails is recommended as it reduces the risk of slippage. However, if aesthetic appeal is a priority, glue provides a cleaner, more seamless finish without any visible holes or screw heads.

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.

On average, tiling a bathroom involves about 12 hours of labor, usually spread over two to three days to accommodate prep work and curing times. A professional tiler can often complete the installation in 6 to 8 hours, whereas a DIYer might take 10 to 16 hours. The total project time is influenced by factors like the bathroom layout, tile type, and necessary prep work, such as removing old tile. The process includes specific timelines for different areas; for example, tiling a floor takes about six hours, while a shower area can take six to ten hours. It is essential to allow for adequate curing time—typically 24 hours each—for the mortar, grout, and caulk, which is why the project extends over several days.

Yes, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.
