"REVIEW FOR CARIFA TILE 2/26/2025 CARIFA TILE JUST FINISHED installing beautiful 2-foot by 4-foot tiles in my tub surrounding and it is stunning. From my first call to the final finish, I was well cared for by the staff at CARIFA TILE. Joe Dismuke personally reviewed and refined my wants and needs for the project with me. Though this was a small project I felt CARIFA TILE considered me an important customer. Ciera, the project manager for my job, was hands-on from day one informing me of each step of my installation. Gustavos is a master craftsman who expertly installed my tiles, and I appreciated that his work area was contained and kept clean. I am extremely pleased with the entire job and all of the personnel who helped make it an easy process for me. I gladly recommend CARIFA TILE. Thank you everyone. Linda"

"The professionals of Krumlauf Floors were an answer to a prayer. I needed a tight timeframe turnaround on the installation of a hardware floor to provide a safer walking surface upon my husband's return from a Rehab Hospital. Krumlauf Floors came through in a way that was prompt, courteous, and proficient. I would recommend them and use them again."

"Organizing the quote was simple and quick - the estimate was received at the same time as the company visited the home the first time. Scheduling was straightforward. Within 3 weeks of accepting the quote, work started. The crew was respectful, as quiet as is possible when removing an old backsplash, and exceptionally hardworking. Our backsplash was done beautifully in about 7 hours. Owner checked in on the work once during the day, and followed up a few days after was completed to ensure we were happy with the job. I will definitely consider them again for future projects. This company was not the lowest quote, but was close to it."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can tile a shower as a DIY project, and you can save hundreds of dollars in labor costs by doing so. However, you’ll need to rent or buy quite a few tools and supplies for the job, including a saw, tile nippers, and a new shower pan. In terms of the work itself, you should be prepared to tackle a variety of different tasks, including measuring and ordering materials, removing old tile, waterproofing the wall, adding rows of tile, grouting, and more.

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.

Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.

Per the International Code Council, walk-in shower floors should have a minimum slope of 1/4-inch per foot (or a 2% slope) towards the drain. The slope should be no steeper than 1/2-inch per foot (or a 4% slope). This helps safely direct water into the drain rather than all over your bathroom.

To make a small bathroom look bigger, choose light-colored tiles in a medium- to large-format size. Lighter colors like white, cream, or light gray help open up a room, making it feel larger and more airy. While it may seem counterintuitive, small tiles can actually make a bathroom look smaller because the increased number of grout lines creates a busy pattern that visually shrinks the space. Instead, opt for medium- or large-format tiles for a more seamless, expansive appearance. For the best effect, pair your tiles with a matching or similarly colored grout to create a continuous surface that enhances the illusion of a larger area. Avoid dark colors, heavy patterns, and contrasting grout, as these can make the space feel more confined.
