"We live in an older house and our floor was a nightmare. We had luxury vinyl flooring installed in the entire downstairs, the stairway platform, and our upstairs hallway. It looks amazing. He did such a great job. We hired him a second time to come back and install new flooring in the upstairs bedrooms and to replace five interior doors in our home after Christmas."

"I have seen the talent, passion, and technique that goes into all of Curt's projects. He won't accept anything less than the highest standard of quality of himself and for his customers. Curt is one of the few guys I would trust to help me with any of my own personal projects. He has a extreme talent and a precision skill set for laying ceramic tile, he does great drywall work and any type of finish carpentry. He is capable of just about anything and he always finds a way, despite any setbacks, to get the job done. I would highly recommend Curt and his helpers for any of your needs of a Handyman!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

Figure out how much tile you need by measuring the backsplash area. Measure the height and length in feet and multiply to get the square footage. Don’t make adjustments for outlets or small cutouts but subtract the square footage for windows or other large obstructions from the total. To account for waste, get 10% more than your calculation.

You can let the tile sit without grout. Don’t panic if there’s a delay between installing the tiles and grouting. A substantial stoppage isn't a problem, provided you keep the tile surface clear of dust and debris. Also, avoid walking over less stable ungrouted floor tiles as they are more prone to premature cracking and shifting.
