"It went very well. They showed up on time the day agreed. He and his workers began the small programs completed in just a few hours. They left the space clean and took all the trash and damaged tiles. The owner is extremely professional and kind. Very thorough. Could not ask for a better experience. They were THE BEST!"

"Flavors did and outstanding job fixed our badly botched tile work in our bathroom. He is very detailed oriented and you would even know he was there when the job is complete. He is very neat and cleans throughout the project. If anyone would like to be completely satisfied hire Flavius Tile. You won't be sorry.."

"Bob Bedford and the great guys from Bedford Builders worked on my Dad’s house this past winter. Bob was very quick to respond to our initial request for him to view my Dad’s house and provide him with a quote. He was extremely patient when walking his home with us, as we discussed options and ideas. He took great notes, and provided my Dad with a detailed quote quickly. I was hoping for a rather specific timeframe, as I was about to have another baby, and it would have been easier to remodel without any of his grandkids in the house. He was very understanding and was able to start the job exactly when we needed. Bob and his team were so very organized and professional from day one, and this carried on throughout the entire project. The kitchen and bathrooms had not been fully remodeled in over 50 years, so it was more than a typical renovation. The kitchen and two bathrooms had to be completely gutted and rebuilt. The kitchen remodel involved relocating the refrigerator and taking a piece of a wall away, installing recessed lighting, crown molding, reworking sink and oven locations, adding a dishwasher and widening the entrance to the kitchen. They also took their time and did an amazing job with the very detailed floor tile pattern. All new cabinets and hardware were installed, and Quartz countertops and a stone backsplash were also installed to perfection. Both the master bath and guest bath were also completely gutted to the studs. Both bathroom remodels required reworking of the existing footprint by removing a closet to open up the bathroom more, and expanding a bit into the existing wall to create a larger master shower. Both bathrooms had exceptional custom tile work in the showers, counter work and cabinets. They also completed beautiful woodwork were needed on the first floor and master bath. Bob was extremely patient throughout the process, and always made sure to explain all of the steps along the way. If an issue arose, he explained it thoroughly and provided an option for a resolution. I absolutely cannot say enough about the QUALITY of the work that was provided by Bob and his team. They are the epitome of professionalism and caring about the quality of their work. We would absolutely recommend Bob Bedford and Bedford Builders to anyone for any size project or remodel."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Flooring transition strips can be secured to the subfloor using glue, nails, or screws. For a more secure installation, especially in high-traffic areas, using screws or nails is recommended as it reduces the risk of slippage. However, if aesthetic appeal is a priority, glue provides a cleaner, more seamless finish without any visible holes or screw heads.

When choosing tiles for a shower floor, avoid highly porous tile materials, like those with a water absorption rating over 7%. Don’t use non-vitreous tiles, or tiles fired at low temperatures, because they will absorb more water. If you use a highly porous tile in the shower, the tiles can wear down faster, meaning they’ll need to be replaced much sooner.

The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic. 

For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.

Removing old tiles can be more complicated, but it can also be more manageable, depending on your circumstances. Typically, old tile is hard to remove because the adhesive had loads of time to bond with your wall, becoming a formidable foe between you and your new tile installation project. On the other hand, old tile in high-traffic areas can become loose, making it much easier to remove.

If you’re out of spacers for your tile installation, you can use pennies. Each time you place a tile, stick the pennies around the edges (on the sides and the corners). Like working with spacers, you’ll want the same amount of space around each tile before they set.
