"Jose Luis and his crew were GREAT!! We had to have tile and some drywall redone in our bathroom. I feel that he and his crew were highly skilled and organized. I would call him again for any other similar work I need done. Priced reasonably and for great quality work. I am so grateful for my bathroom looking like new and pretty. Jose Luis and his crew were also kind and thoughtful which is hard to find in any industry - muchas gracias :-)"

"Job: Backsplash Installation Value: Great We had the entire backsplash installed in the kitchen. We had ALL our own supplies. Their quote was the most affordable to our budget. Scheduling was easy and very prompt. Work was immediately started when they arrived. The entire kitchen was completed in about 6-7 hours. I'd like to mention that we were about 10 tiles short and they even offerd to go and pick them up for us at no extra cost; I called the location and they were back completing the job within 30m. They also noticed some grout missing on the floor tiles where the tiles met our cabinetry. I had left over grout and they fixed/completed that at no extra cost either. Needless to say I was very happy with the job done including the little extras."

"Jason, owner, did the ceramic, saltillo and talavera tile installation himself. He is very exact and methodical in his approach to laying out the tile first and making sure the design and layout are what you want before he adds grout. He is most knowledgeable about preparing the surfaces before begin tiling. Excellent worker, cleans up and fair pricing."

"Israel and his team started with a shower pan and tile job that turned out so well, we kept them on board to help us finish a 1949 triplex renovation. Seph installed numerous doors and windows, built a small deck, replaced fences and gates, and resurfaced and painted three concrete patios. Israel's crew quickly and expertly installed new laminate flooring, added two concrete driveways, and even helped us install five new window AC units. Quite simply, this company completed every request we made in short order, in good quality, at a very fair price. We are so thankful we found them. We just wish we had found them years ago."

"Came and installed our backsplash tile and floating shelves we had. Was not an easy job due to the type of tile and difficulty of installation of these shelves, but these guys knocked it out of the park! Very pleased and will definitely be calling them back to do our bathroom tile next!"

"The install was done pretty good, but they didn't keep their word on installing baseboards as promised multiple times by Ramiro. Would encourage customers to read your estimates and contract before signing. I read similar review previously but didn't pay too much regard since many A reviews. The day they finished tile Ramiro shook my hand and promised again they'd be back to install baseboards 2 days later. Never showed, called or text me. I really felt bad being that their work was pretty good but their word meant nothing."

"It went wonderful. Steve’s attention to detail and care for your home is second to none. I highly recommend him for your project. We were so happy with the work he did in our kitchen that we had him back a month later to do tile work on another area. We intend to have him remodel our bathrooms next year. Again, I can’t recommend him enough. You will not be disappointed."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.

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 number of boxes of tile you need depends entirely on the amount of tile in each box or case. Different manufacturers package their tiles differently, and boxes contain different amounts of tile depending on the size, shape, and material. Often, the amount of area that a case will cover is listed in the product description. To calculate the number of boxes you need, take the total square feet of the space and divide it by the number of square feet the box will cover.

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.
