"I had a great experience from start to finish with Joe. He responded to my project request within an hour of posting it. Unlike some of the other providers, Joe had availability to start my project in a matter of days. He was super flexible when we had a Covid diagnosis in the house—easily changed our installation date for the project. He showed up right on time the day of the project. He wore a mask the whole time (which I did not ask him to do) but I really appreciated that he did so without needing to be asked. In terms of the actual project, he installed a ceiling fan in our bedroom. There was no existing fan or light, so he had to route electric and brace the fan from the attic. He did an awesome job! Start to finish was about 6 hours. When he finished, he showed me the final results and then he vacuumed up and left the place spotless. We are incredibly happy with the outcome! His rates were reasonably priced and I will definitely be using his services again. Thanks Joe!"

"Gary Brown was very pleasant and helpful in the demolition of our old home. Very infomative, promt, and thorough, on when it was to be done, and how it was to be done. I would recommend Gary very highly. We are still working with Gary on the plans for our new home."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

You can use sanded or unsanded grout for a shower pan, but sanded grout isn’t the best option for shower walls. For those areas, you’ll want to use unsanded grout, which works well on vertical surfaces and is less likely to slump than sanded grout. Alternatively, you can use epoxy grout for shower walls.

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.

On average, tiling a shower costs between $1,800 and $5,000, with most people paying around $2,700. The price of this project depends on multiple factors, including the kind of tile you choose, the size of your shower, and labor rates in your area. If you decide to tile your own shower (instead of hiring a professional), it’ll likely cost $800 to $1,400.

The lifespan of bathroom tile can be 50 years or more, depending on proper installation and regular maintenance. A well-done tile job, whether it's a new installation or a retiling project, can last for many decades. To lengthen the life of your tile, it's best to have it installed by a professional and to perform regular maintenance. This includes routine cleaning, resealing, and regrouting as needed. With proper care, you can expect your tile to last 10 years or more before needing major repairs or retiling, especially in high-traffic areas where tiles can wear out more quickly.
