"Arete tile did a great job! He did a large backsplash area in our in-law suite and around our master bath garden tub. He was my first reply when requesting an estimate on Angi. Showed up at the exact time quoted for the estimate and for the installs. Very quick about providing the estimate. Very professional, friendly and cleans up good afterward. We will have him back to do another area of tile! Also felt that the price for the job was extremely reasonable! My husband does some construction and handyman work and we will be referring anyone looking for tile work to Arete tile!"

"Dave was right on top of everything. He picked up the sliding patio door for me and installed it. Quality workmanship and attention to detail. He is easy to work with and cleaned up after each visit. I am going to hire him again to paint my great room. I would highly recommend him."

"I used Z & J for my recent remodel and truly could not be happier with the work, as well as the guys who came out and completed the work. Zach and his crew were on time, professional, kept me updated and cleaned up literally everything before leaving. I cannot recommend them enough and will be using them for all of my future projects. Do not hesitate to book Z & J"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

If the hearth ends against a wall, you can use a tile cutter as you normally would. However, if the edge of your hearth ends with no surface pressing against it,you may want to look into rounded tiles. These give a smooth edge to your hearth and make sure cut edges aren’t visible. You can also see if the tile you have has pieces that have been glazed or rounded on one edge. You’d then cut the tile and place it normally, with the cut edge facing inward. 

Your tiles will have a significant visual impact on your bathroom, so you’ll want to make a thoughtful decision. Once you land on the tile material that suits your needs and budget, you can consider the color schemes you want. Consider whether you want something modern, classic, or eye-catching.

Options include clay, concrete, and slate tiles. Each offers unique durability, aesthetics, and costs.

Updating your backsplash without removing the tile is possible in a couple of different ways. First, you can remove the old grout and replace it with new grout to give your backsplash a fresh look. You can also change the grout color, which can have a surprisingly large impact on the final appearance of the backsplash. Finally, you can paint the original tile to totally change the look of the backsplash without removing it.

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.
