Q: Can you cut tiles without a tile cutter?

• <div><p>Yes, but you&rsquo;ll have to use some other type of tool to avoid damaging the tile and possibly injuring yourself. Some alternatives to tile cutters include a glass cutter, angle grinder, and wet saw. Depending on the tile material, you might simply be able to measure and score it with something sharp, like a carbide-tipped pencil, and break it off. Be sure to sand the edge for a smooth installation.</p></div>

Q: Do you grout hearth tiles?

• <div><p>Grouting hearth tiles is one of the most important steps. It seals the tiles so heat doesn&rsquo;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. </p></div>

Q: Is it expensive to change the layout of a bathroom?

• <div><p>Altering the layout of your bathroom will make a big difference as moving or adding plumbing quickly inflates your total bill. While you can recoup more of your cost (in home value terms) by adding a bathroom, rearranging the layout won&rsquo;t affect your home&rsquo;s sticker value. However, strategic placements that allow more light or better flow may increase buyer interest. </p></div>

Q: Can you install tile over tile?

• <div><p>You can technically install tile over tile, but we don&rsquo;t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn&rsquo;t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don&rsquo;t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.</p><p>If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.</p></div>

Q: Can I tile over existing shower tiles?

• <div><p>Yes, you can tile over existing shower tiles, but it's better to remove the old tiles first for the best results. Tiling over existing tiles requires a clean, level surface and proper adhesion. If the old tiles are in good condition, you can roughen the surface to improve adhesion. However, removing the old tiles ensures a smoother, longer-lasting finish and prevents potential issues down the line.</p></div>

Took down 3 dead pine trees between 2 power lines, called the power company and set it it up with them. I appreciate not having to deal with that. They did an excellent job, took down the trees and moved them to a burn pile I have. I recommend this crew to anyone that needs work done

I know it was more expensive because the cost of lumber went up soooo ridiculously high. The job completed was done quickly and when Jacob said it would be completed. Have already referred this company to other people looking for quality work.

"The project was completed on time and on budget. My glass tile backsplash was installed professionally with great care for detail and accuracy. The ability to reach the professional and schedule the appointment was great. He cleaned up the area after completion and was very easy to communicate with during the job. I will definitely use him again to install my floors and any other tile jobs that I have for my home. Overall it was a great experience and I will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great tile and flooring professional."
