"This company is amazing! I can't actually say enough good things about them. From the beginning the owner came out and measured the space. He was very professional and just an overall great guy! One thing that stood out about this company; once they give you the quote, it does not change, no matter what they find. So you can rest easy that you will only pay for what you were originally quoted. On the lead up to the project, the communication was top notch. We easily coordinated materials, start dates and project completion dates. On the first day of the project, everyone arrived on time. The company owner, his foreman and the installation crew arrived. We walked the space with them one last time to ensure everyone was on the same page. The crew began working and they were amazing! So professional, hard working and their workmanship was impeccable! They barely took any breaks, just methodically worked. I was so impressed with them. Even as the project was happening, the company owner checked in with us at the end of each day. The project was completed on time, and the floors are so beautiful! We will be recommending this company to everyone! You can't go wrong with them! Thank you for all your hard work...you're a rare company these days that "walks the walk" and follows through on everything you promised."

"I had an emergency no power at all late Saturday night. This company called me right away and helped first trouble shoot the problem over the phone. He was willing to come right over if need be. With his help over the phone we resolved the issue and he didn't even charge me anything at all. They are a very helpful, efficient, and honest company. I will definitely call this company for all other issues I have in the future."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Glass tiles are among the most difficult to install. This is because their transparency makes the adhesive visible, and any imperfections on the opposite side are also likely to be visible. Glass tiles also must be handled carefully during installation, as they are prone to scratching. For these reasons, glass tiles often require professional installation to get the most out of their beauty and unique look.

Grout lines should typically be between 1/8 to 3/16 inch thick. This ensures enough room for the grout to dry properly and makes them wide enough to look clean and professional. If grout lines are too small, it can be easier to see imperfections in the spacing. 

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

When choosing between porcelain and ceramic tile, the best option depends on your specific needs, budget, and project application. Porcelain tile is generally more durable, denser, and harder than ceramic, making it a good choice for busy, high-traffic areas. It also offers superior moisture resistance, making it ideal for moisture-retaining spaces. However, porcelain is typically more expensive, and its hardness can make it brittle, potentially causing it to crack if a heavy object is dropped on it. In contrast, ceramic tile is a more budget-friendly option with lower material and installation costs. It is softer and easier to work with, making it a great choice for DIY projects. While not as durable as porcelain, ceramic is still a quality material suitable for many home applications, particularly small, decorative projects.

The tile trim you use will depend on a few factors, including design preferences, budget, and whether the project is DIY or not. You might choose plastic trim if you want an easier DIY job that is more budget-friendly. There are also more color options available in plastic. On the other hand, you might choose metal to match your fixtures or for areas with heavy use.
