"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."

"Tile and Marble Elite Design did a great job installing Porcelain tile in our home! They were meticulous with the installation and took the time to make sure the job was done right. They have done two rooms in our home and we plan on having them do multiple other projects in the future. Overall great experience!"

"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."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

For best results, you should remove the toilet in a bathroom before removing tile or installing new tile. If you don’t remove the toilet, it will be harder to fully waterproof the tile around the toilet, which could increase the risk of mold growth or plumbing leaks. If you have trouble removing the toilet, hire a plumber to help.

It’s possible to walk on a clay tile roof, but you run the risk of breaking or cracking the tiles if you’re not careful, so it’s best not to walk on it if you can avoid it. If you or a contractor needs roof access, be sure to distribute your weight evenly and step on the portions of tile that are also supported underneath, which depends on your tile design. Walking on any roofing material is inherently dangerous, so wear rubber-soled shoes and use safety equipment if you need to access your roof.

Yes, you can install a backsplash directly onto drywall, provided the wall is properly prepped, clean, and dry. For best results, especially in kitchen areas, your walls should be made of moisture-resistant drywall, often called green board. If your current wall isn't moisture-resistant, it's recommended to replace it before installing the backsplash. For even greater protection against water damage, you can remove the existing drywall and install a tile backer board or cement board instead. While properly installed standard drywall is typically strong enough to support a backsplash, some local building codes may require water-resistant materials in kitchen areas, so it's a good idea to check.

You can purchase natural stone tiles from your local home improvement store or stone distributor. 

Simply put, natural stone flooring is a high-end style that outlasts its wood and carpet counterparts. After finding a style you love, a stone flooring company near you can help source and install them for a reliably clean look.
