"This s the second time we have used Tim at Pacific Builders. He is very personable and easy to work with. He will bend over backward to make sure you are satisfied with his work. When he gives you a quote on a job he explains the variables and sticks to it. We would definitely hire him again."

"The whole process was pretty smooth.  John discussed with me what was desired and offered suggestions on alternatives for design and material to use.  I wanted to reuse some of the existing material which he was happy to do.  After we agreed to go ahead with the job, John was on schedule for starting the job.  He was accurate with his labor estimate.  He returned material to the supply houses that was not needed.  He and his workman were respectful for our property and left the job site clean.
I will use John again for various odd jobs as needed."

"He has done quite a bit of installs for us. He has done top tier installation in travel trailers and RVs, which is very difficult. He is so good with his measurements. He is punctual, on time, and dedicated to his work. He knows his job and he takes care of what he needs to at the time. He is a well put together gentleman. We have referred him to other RV companies as well."

"Alex arrived on time for his estimate.  He was courteous, clean-cut and I immediately felt at ease with him.  Alex asked and answered questions for the project, the time frame, and my expectations.  He later called me with the estimate and we set an appointment for the work. On the first day of work, Alex again arrived on time with all tools to complete the job.  I believe he worked two days on this project.  When he was done, he cleaned up the work area.  Alex finished on time and on budget."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

Yes, provided you aren’t installing drywall over it. But you can skim coat it, apply new tile right on top, paint it, or stencil it. For more budget- and DIY-friendly options, you can install beadboard or apply decals. Just make sure that the current tiles are in good condition and prepped well for the paint or adhesive to stick.

You should always use caulk instead of grout where the tile meets the wall. This will help your tile installation look great and last a long time. When you accidentally use grout for the corner seams, you end up making the tiles too rigid. So as the wall shifts over time, your tiles have no wiggle room. This can lead to tile damage, which will eventually require you to do at least a partial reinstallation.

Travertine is a natural stone, while porcelain is ceramic. You can enjoy the best of both worlds with porcelain travertine tiles. Some people prefer porcelain to travertine because it doesn’t require regular maintenance and it’s easier to clean. Porcelain travertine looks like the real thing but only costs $3 to $6 per square foot.

Different types of tile cutters may work best depending on the type of tile you are cutting and the size of your project. There are two main types of tile cutters: manual and electric. Manual tile cutters are quick and easy to use for small projects and softer tile materials, but they can only make straight cuts. Electric tile cutters make light work of big projects and can cut through harder materials.
