"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

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.

Yes, unfortunately, it is normal for wall and floor tiles to crack, especially when you drop heavy items on tiled floors or place heavy objects on them. Tiles are also more susceptible to cracking when ceramic tiles designed for walls are installed on floors, as these are often not strong enough to handle heavy loads from foot traffic and furniture. Similarly, tiles that are installed incorrectly, lack adequate subflooring, or have other installation problems are prone to cracking. To avoid these problems and the inevitable repair and replacement costs they bring, always hire a professional for tile work and follow best practices for installation.

Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.

It’s important to leave a gap in the corner when tiling to allow room for tile expansion. Leaving between one eighth of an inch to one tenth of an inch is enough space. 

You can lay tile directly on a plywood countertop, but if it’s a high-traffic surface in a kitchen, it’s better to add a moisture-resistant base. Plywood is susceptible to moisture, so if dampness seeps through from the surface around the sink or where you prep food, it can cause the plywood to warp, leading to grout damage, cracked tiles, or mold growth under the surface.
