"These folks know it all. My bathroom was completed in just over 2 weeks. They replaced my sagging waterlogged floor, created a walk-in ADA compliant shower, took a vintage buffet and refinished it and created a beautiful vanity, installed a beautiful tile floor and tripled my storage by creating a giant custom bathroom linen closet that I still have not been able to fill completely. The bathroom space is the same but feels twice as large. We have other projects and we will be calling them. Oh, and my home is a manufactured home. Communication was key and constant. They arrived on time every day and would stay late to fix that days schedule work. It came in under budget. Love Ron, Terry, Shelia and others."
"Well, I hope this is showing as a five star review. This was definitely a five star job by footprint floors. I really cannot say enough good things about them. Eduardo was a consummate professional throughout, and Benito who actually did the work on the floors is a master craftsman. I wish I could post pictures here. Hopefully Eduardo will put it on his Instagram feed. They took our floors which were covered with vinyl flooring, plywood, carpet, and decades of crud, and made them look brand new. They are simply beautiful. I just really cannot say enough good things about this entire experience. if you are looking to get hardwood floors refinished, look no further. These are your guys."
"I am very happy with this company, their professionalism and the quality of their product and work. I would recommend them to family and friends. One thing - if you are replacing a tile floor - make sure they tarp EVERYTHING in the room they will be ripping old tile from. My crew didn't, and I had extremely thick layers of dust throughout my entire house, to include countertops/kitchen utensils/etc. Upon speaking about this issue with the company, they say that is not the norm and apologized profusely. So they should, just make sure they do. Other than that above issue - I couldn't have asked for a better product and install. The team was professional, courteous, and friendly. They were fast and efficient. Definitely use them."

"My bathtub was stuck in the 60’s. The tile was pink and the tub was peeling. Michael came out, was incredibly professional and gave a reasonable quote. His work far exceeded my expectations! I feel like I took a time machine and jumped to a modern spa. I absolutely love it!!!! We are refinishing our kitchen countertops next and Michael will be our first call."
"They do a good job with quoting the granite counter fabrication, tear-out of old counters, etc. They were much less conscientious with the backsplash, and basically did not do what they quoted, which led to a series of mistakes and a bad outcome. They quoted using 1/4 Hardy backer board behind the back splash, but cut corners and installed the backsplash tile over the old lumpy sheet rock, by using too thick an adhesive/mortar base. This led to an uneven tile application with high and low tiles, which would have been avoided if they did what was quoted. the back splash had to be corrected by the homeowner after they left, in addition to the cutouts for outlets, which were not adequately precise in size or location. I would not recommend them unless you are capable of fixing their mistakes. They will not reply to you after they have been paid. Their number one priority was completing the job in one day, irrespective of quality. Too bad, showing up 1.5 hr late and cutting corners contributed to a poor outcome. They could have done better and earned a 5-Star review. With regrets."
There isn’t a one-size-fits-all best tile for a dog shower. Consider your budget, tile durability, aesthetics, and, most importantly, practicality. Avoid tiles your dog will slide around on. Pebbles are a great non-slip option, but are pricey and tricky to install. Glass might look modern, but it’s not scratch-resistant. Small, floor-rated ceramic or porcelain tiles are economical and have many grout lines that make the surface more slip-resistant. Pick a matte finish rather than a shiny tile if you want it to hide stray mud and hairs better.
When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.
You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.
There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they’re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn’t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn’t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.
Grouting hearth tiles is one of the most important steps. It seals the tiles so heat doesn’t transfer under the tiles so easily, which can be dangerous. For this reason, heat-resistant grout is a must. Grout also prevents dust, dirt, and any other material from gathering between your tiles. If this happens and those buildups are flammable, a fire could start between the tiles.
