"Beyond any doubt.. Diamond Tile and Stone is the ONLY tiler that I will recommend to anyone. After contacting several other local tilers, they were the only ones who were completely willing to come out and look at my self-remodeled bathroom without question. It was a very difficult space for me to remodel (1930's bathroom) and I had some fears about the space that was to be tiled and how the finished product would look. When the owner of Diamond Tile and Stone came out to my house to look at my project he immediately put my fears to rest, and took the job on without question. The cost of the tile project (tub surround) was quite reasonable as we were on a tight budget and they did a fantastic job with a very impressive quality of work. Additionally, they were very friendly and extremely easy to work with from start to finish. I feel fortunate to have found Diamond Tile and Stone."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.

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.

Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.

On average, tiling a shower costs between $1,800 and $5,000, with most people paying around $2,700. The price of this project depends on multiple factors, including the kind of tile you choose, the size of your shower, and labor rates in your area. If you decide to tile your own shower (instead of hiring a professional), it’ll likely cost $800 to $1,400.
