"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 questions, answered by experts

Tile—specifically smaller, mosaic-style tiles—is the best type of flooring for building a walk-in shower base. Shower pans come with a threshold and sidewalls to contain the water, but tile can be set into the shower base. This creates a walk-in shower floor that gently slopes toward the drain to keep water from getting out and into the rest of the bathroom.

In some cases, granite tiles can be installed over existing flooring if the surface is level, stable, and free of moisture issues. However, removing old flooring is often recommended to ensure a secure and long-lasting installation, as well as to avoid height differences at thresholds. Consult with your flooring pro to determine the best approach based on your specific situation.

Here’s another instance of where the answer is you could, but that doesn’t mean you should. Yes, part of the issue is getting the drywall to stay in place on the tiles, and it’s understandable that screws will crack the tiles and cause them to crumble. That’s why it’s a much better idea to screw drywall into studs, not your porcelain or ceramic tile. But aside from issues with attaching the drywall, it’s also about ensuring a smooth application without trapping moisture inside.

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.

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.
