"Chris and his coworker did an amazing job on my kitchen backsplash. There was a lot of drywall damage existing but he was able to put up new drywall along with a pristine job of installing g the new tile. He also did some wood trim work for us around a window and installed a tow kick plate. Both also beautifully done. What really stands out about this company is their professional attitude. Chris communicated his pricing and availability very clearly, showed up on time and did the work cleanly and smoothly. They are nice men and I was very comfortable with their process. Their quote wasn’t the cheapest, nor by far the most expensive, but I went with them because they seemed the most professional dependable and knowledgeable as they produced their quote. I would definitely hire them again."

"I worked with Nixon and his team at One Smart Project to install hardwood floors in two rooms and on the stairs. They came to my house and gave me a quote within a day. They helped me choose the ideal color and size for my rooms and offered several flooring options and types. The team arrived on time and completed my project in two days."

"These guys were amazing. I hired them to install a new backsplash and to fix some cracked grout. John came out to my house within a day and set up his associate Allen to be at my place right before the holidays. Allen was punctual, professional, and really educated me about the things I should do and lookout for with my tiles. He even found out that I needed extra tile in my shower - where I had no clue that I even had an issue there. As soon as I got the extra tile, John and Allen scheduled to come back right away and finished the job without a hitch. They stayed in constant contact with me and updated me every step of the way. Having hired a lot of contractors recently, I have to say I am very pleased with the care and attention these guys gave me. A"

Backsplash Installation 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.

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.

The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.

You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.

If you’re handling your tile removal yourself, seal the room using painter’s tape and heavy-duty contractor bags to prevent dust and shards from escaping. Use a claw hammer or a pry bar and a mallet to get behind the tile and pry it away from the floor or wall. Once your tiles are all removed, sweep everything into contractor bags for disposal, being careful not to overfill them. Make sure you wear a dust mask, safety goggles, and work gloves to keep yourself safe from injury while you work.
