"We cannot say enough good things about JE Sanchez Remodeling! The 2 men came to our house, gave a quote on several projects, and showed up promptly to begin work. They were both so knowledgeable and competent, and so respectful. We are so VERY pleased with their work, and would definitely recommend them for any home repairs! One project was some flooring that had water damage to it. They repaired it and replaced new tile, it is beautiful! Another project is replacing screen on our porch, and putting new ledges up. We also have some ceiling repair that needs attention. We are very confident that when it is all done next week we will be so happy with their hard work. I know that any future repairs/remodeling we need, we will sure know who to call! We are confident they can handle any of our requests."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional services ensure precision and long-lasting results.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn’t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.

If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it’s in good enough condition to lay new tile.

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.
