"This was one of the best experiences I’ve had with a contractor. We bought a house that needed significant work. I had several contractors in the house at the same time and they all worked well around each other. Redemption flooring owner is an honest and amazing human being. We got to know each other a bit over the course of the time it took to put hardwood floors down and later tile floors. Great personality, and just an all around great human being. Prices were reasonable and the work was emasculate !! Our floors loook fantastic!"

"Despite the insane delays of the pandemic and my project considered 'non-essential' - I had started project 2/2020 - they finished 8/2020. It sounds bad but they kept me informed and once project started they took care of all the challenges along the way. Great crew - skilled, neat and courteous. I knew from the 1st 5 minutes of Curt's visit that I was in expert hands to handle the entire project. He was professional, worked with my personal tastes and needs and the final product is beyond my expectations. His estimates were accurate, he was fair with add on's (so were team that dealt with them) and handled the issues quickly and fairly with manufacturers and subcontractors. They were also good with communicating what would happen each step of the way so I could adjust my 'in house' business around them with limited hassles. What is different about them - and made a big difference for me - was that they order and warehouse every element - cabinets, hardware, plumbing fixtures, appliances, trim etc. and don't start the job until its ALL ready - so once they start there are no delays. This helped avoid all the 'supply chain' issues of the pandemic. It may mean waiting - but when you're dealing with NO kitchen /bath - you want the job done as quickly as possible. The delays we dealt with were more part of the process than gaps in scheduling due to poor management of contractors and crews. That also made the entire process less stressful. I would definitely work with them again and recommend them highly."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of tile flooring can vary significantly based on the material and maintenance. Generally, tile flooring can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, but high-quality, well-maintained ceramic tile can last 75 to 100 years. To achieve a longer lifespan, you should clean the tiles and grout regularly, reseal the grout annually, keep the floor dry, and avoid placing extremely heavy items on it to prevent cracking. Choosing a high-quality tile (Grade 1) will also contribute to its longevity.

The best bathroom floor tiles are strong enough to withstand the weight of a clawfoot tub. However, professional tile installation is essential. If the tiles are uneven or improperly fixed, they may crack under the pressure. Be careful when installing the tub—if it drops or drags on the tiles, it could easily cause scratches or cracks.

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.

There are a few different tools you can use to score tiles. Manual tile cutters or tile scribes work well for scoring in straight lines. Tile nippers are one of the best options for scoring because they can make small and irregular cuts that larger tools may not be able to handle.

There are several tools that you will use together to install tiles. Four of the most basic tools needed in tile installation include a notched trowel for applying tile adhesive, a tile cutter or saw for cutting tiles to size, tile spacers for creating the appropriate amount of space between tiles, and a grout float for applying grout.
