"It went perfectly.  Tim kept every promise he made!  This is our 11th renovation and our FIRST to be on budget and on time.
Tim and his team are a delight to work with.  Nothing was straight forward but Tim and his guys were always helpful, patient and honest.  Great problem solvers.  We found Tim on Angie's list.  As it turns out he is a very respected and loved person on the island.  We feel very grateful!

"I’ve been preparing my house for the market, and Michael Popkin has been a real partner. He has been enthusiastic and has helped identify areas of the house for improvement. I hired him to replace tile and grout in two bathrooms. He took out a wheel chair lift, replaced shower heads, and laid down new wood laminate flooring for two upstairs rooms. His rate has been very reasonable, and I’m proud to show the house he has helped make new."

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.

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

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.

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. 

Here’s another instance of where the answer is you could, but that doesn’t mean you should. Yes, part of the issue is getting the drywall to stay in place on the tiles, and it’s understandable that screws will crack the tiles and cause them to crumble. That’s why it’s a much better idea to screw drywall into studs, not your porcelain or ceramic tile. But aside from issues with attaching the drywall, it’s also about ensuring a smooth application without trapping moisture inside.
