"Mr. Wolffe was given the impossible task of restoring our 30 year old Saltillo tile flooring including replacing some of the tiles. The job took much longer than expected but was still performed within the estimate. It was not easy to find a tile professional familiar and willing to work with Saltillo tiles. We are delighted with the quality of Mr. Wolffe's work and grateful to have found him. Bob and Claude Poole, Oley, PA."

"What an amazing job they did! I absolutely love my new porch. He kept me informed every day, making sure he was fulfilling my request. A very nice, professional, yet personable man. Always cleaned my yard at the end of each day. I would highly recommend you call him first before anyone else."

"Robert is a multi-faceted individual. He did our interior painting and fixed our ceiling down in our base that was destroyed by water. Also fixed the ceramic tile in my kitchen that was damaged. His rates are reasonable and he does a wonderful job. I would definitely hire him again."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

Your floors should be completely level for tile, otherwise you risk damaging the tiles in the future. When there are even small gaps or hills in the subfloor beneath the tile, this puts more pressure on the tile when you walk around on the floor. With repeated traffic, the tiles are at risk of cracking, and you’ll have to deal with tile repairs sooner than if the floor was completely level.

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you’re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option. Cutting dry also means you can apply tile grout sooner, so it’s better for rushed projects.

Tile will almost always last longer than laminate flooring, regardless of the type of tile installed. Porcelain tile can last for 75 years or more with proper care, and even less durable ceramic tile will last for 60 years or more, provided they’re installed by a tile professional. On the other hand, laminate flooring has an average lifespan of around 20 years, and you might only get 10 to 15 years out of low-cost laminate flooring. As such, tile will add far more value to your home than laminate.
