"Nate and Joe did an incredible job. Both are extremely quick and meticulous and in their work. It took less than 1 day to cut and install and 2nd day to grout. By noon of the second day, my project was complete. All the cuts were perfect and their attention to detail was amazing. They took great care to protect our floors and countertops during the job and cleaned-up at the end. My wife and I cant stop staring at our beautiful new backsplash. We plan to use Exotic for our Master Bathroom project next. Wholeheartedly recommend Nate and Joe for any tile project anyone is considering."

"Great. He replaced the tile quickly and it looks perfect. Grout is well matched. He also replaced a drain for me. He also rebuilt a step in my backyard on my deck that was rotten and dangerous so that it could be safe again. He has good skills and is always prompt. He also has great communication skills. He is a great handyman."

"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"

We pride ourselves on our clear and concise communication. We want to ensure we provide you a quick, quality service on time and on budget.\n\nWe joined this business because we were tired of calling ten contractors to only get two to come out and bid. Then having to wait another 2-3 weeks to even get the bid before even scheduling service. Waiting around for weeks then just to have the project delayed and go way over the estimates didn’t feel right.\n\nWe are provide our clients the pricing quickly and transparently either on our website or right on a 15min consultation video call. We do everything to plan for issues that could arise on a job before they happen and, we inform our customers before the job begins if any changes would be expected.\n\nOur technicians have years of experience in the industry and pride themselves on quality and attention to detail.

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they’re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn’t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn’t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.

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.

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.

Yes, but you’ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.
