"This is the second time I used The
Floor Magicians and as before I was very impressed.  Originally
I had intended on using ceramic tile in two bathrooms I was
remodeling.  When Rob came out for a consultation neither he nor
I knew exactly what we would be dealing with as far as subfloor
condition and thickness. I was very concerned about having a smooth
transition from the hardwood flooring to the tile and Rob was very
accommodating of this. We scheduled a date of install and we agreed
that I would do the demolition and subfloor replacement and after
several reschedules including a custom shower enclosure being delayed
over a week, my daughter being born early, changing material from
ceramic tile to groutable vinyl tile, as well as a few other things,
I thought we were finally ready to go. I called Rob up and he and
his son squeezed me in to their booked schedules only to realize when
they arrived that I just had the drywall finished the day before.
Rather than install the tile and risk the drywall dust settling into
the wet grout, Rob insisted that we wait and they come back another
day. I felt really bad but consented. When the dust had settled and
I cleaned it up, they came back and laid the tile to perfection. We
have gotten many compliments on the tile and the threshold transition
is non-existent. I forgot to mention with the crunch of my slightly
premature newborn daughter I didn't have the time to install the
finish layers of the subfloor I had planned on. As I had taken a
full week doing the base subflooring, I knew there was no way I was
going to fit it in and so I asked Rob what he would want to add that
to his scope of work. Rather than commit highway robbery due to my
desperate situation he was very reasonable and I kid you not they did
that part of the job expertly in about 2 hours. I ultimately paid
them a little extra due to the delays and my satisfaction with the
job without them asking for it even though they were entitled. I
will definitely use The Floor Magicians again..

Backsplash Installation FAQs, answered by experts

To maintain tile and grout, clean the surfaces regularly with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and wipe up spills promptly to prevent buildup. It is also important to reseal the grout every 1-2 years to maintain its durability.

It’s easiest to start from an edge as it gives you a straight line. A problem may arise if your edge doesn’t line up perfectly, in which case it’s best to start from the center. Some think that starting tile from the center adds a focal point in the center of the hearth. 

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.

It’s possible to walk on a clay tile roof, but you run the risk of breaking or cracking the tiles if you’re not careful, so it’s best not to walk on it if you can avoid it. If you or a contractor needs roof access, be sure to distribute your weight evenly and step on the portions of tile that are also supported underneath, which depends on your tile design. Walking on any roofing material is inherently dangerous, so wear rubber-soled shoes and use safety equipment if you need to access your roof.

When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.
