"Sam did an amazing job. He is a very professional artist at installing porcelain ceramic tile floors. He did our kitchen & laundry room & we are very pleased with the work. We asked for a quote on a bathroom remodel because he does things right from the start to finish."
"Calvin did an excellent job. The tile above my stove and under my window looks beautiful. He really has a knack for placing tile. He was quick, neat, and friendly. He helped me decide a good look in my design. He was kind, considerate, and I was so pleased in the outcome. HE even cleaned up well after the job I would highly recommend him for all tile work."
"Mr. Gerson(& crew) were very professional and on time. I requested luxury vinyl floors installed with base boards and quarter round throughout. They over delivered and were completely done in one day as promised. The look and feel have exceeded my expectations. I am very, very, very pleased."
"Replaced bathroom floor tile, and handled a tricky job well - needed to do significant repair to joists first. Fast, responsive, honest, clear communications all through. Very professional"
"They did an excellent job, and in a reasonable amount of time. The cost was increased by the fact that they had to re-do some work by someone we previously hired who was terrible and unreliable, but it was well worth it!"
"They did very good on my bathroom remodel. Before my bathroom was a mess and looked outdated. Now, it looks more modern. I really like how they did the tiles."
"Mr. Hill and crew did an excellent job refurbishing an outdoor screened-in patio. Job included new doors, screens, paneling, and painting. Quality of work was good. Cost was fair. And they finished in 3 days."
The easiest tile size to install is large tiles, and they’re easier to install than small tiles—the job is faster and simpler when there’s less placing, adhering, and grouting to do. However, when tiles get really big, they’re more difficult to handle, cut, and fit. Standard floor tile sizes are 12-by-12 inches, 18-by-18 inches, and 12-by-24 inches.
No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.
Regrouting is cheaper than retiling, and it involves less work. Grout is available in a wide range of colors, making it a cost-effective way to improve the look of any tiled area in your home.
If you’re looking for a durable tile for a shower floor, consider porcelain, stone, or vinyl tiles. Each of these options, when installed correctly, will stand up well to everything from water and moisture to the impact from a dropped bottle of body wash. These materials are also easy to clean and maintain, making them popular options for shower floors.
Professional installation ensures a uniform, durable surface, and proper sealing, and guarantees workmanship quality, preventing future issues linked to water damage or instability.
