"TRUST LUIS ? YOU WON?T REGRET IT. I was referred to LMcoatings and worked directly with Luis on my bathroom remodel. From start to finish, the experience was excellent. Luis gave a fair quote and truly considered my timeline. I needed to move in before the end of January, and he adjusted the schedule to finish on time, which I really appreciated. He personally helped me select tiles, paint, and fixtures, patiently explaining pros and cons instead of rushing decisions. His crew was professional, detail-oriented, and handled everything from demo and cleanup to tile work, plumbing, and structural reinforcement. What impressed me most was the quality of work you don?t see ? everything underneath was done properly. Remodeling requires trust, and Luis delivered a solid, beautiful result. I highly recommend Luis and LMcoatings."

"Austin and his team are amazing! Spencer does the most amazing job at tile. Thanks to their hard work, our work in progress basement is finally finished. It looks more amazing than I ever thought it could look. Austin is always committed to make sure there is communication throughout the entire process and that we are completely satisfied with the work. His prices are very reasonable, and you definitely get your moneyâ s worth when working with these guys. If you have a job that needs to get done, I recommend giving them a call."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

There are several low-maintenance shower floor tiles to consider for your bathroom. Stone tiles are easy to keep clean and only need an occasional resealing to keep them looking their best. Porcelain is another low-maintenance choice, as it doesn’t stain easily. Vinyl is also suitable for easy upkeep. On the other hand, one of the highest maintenance options for bathrooms is wood tile.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.

Ceramic tile adheres best with premixed adhesive or mortar. If you’re installing the tile in an area with moisture, such as a bathroom or kitchen, opt for waterproof adhesive, and if you choose mortar, make sure it’s thick because that is the easiest to work with and ensures the tiles will sit flat.

On average, tiling a bathroom involves about 12 hours of labor, usually spread over two to three days to accommodate prep work and curing times. A professional tiler can often complete the installation in 6 to 8 hours, whereas a DIYer might take 10 to 16 hours. The total project time is influenced by factors like the bathroom layout, tile type, and necessary prep work, such as removing old tile. The process includes specific timelines for different areas; for example, tiling a floor takes about six hours, while a shower area can take six to ten hours. It is essential to allow for adequate curing time—typically 24 hours each—for the mortar, grout, and caulk, which is why the project extends over several days.

The tile spacing you should use will depend on the tile and where you’re installing it. Choosing the right tile spacers to maintain a consistent gap between your tiles is tricky. Generally, tile spacing shouldn’t be less than 2 millimeters on walls and 3 millimeters on floors because of stress relief requirements. Getting it wrong can result in uneven tiles and early repairs.
