"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 :-)"

"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

Generally speaking, it is better to cut tile wet when using a fast-moving wet saw to reduce dust and chipping. However, tile can be cut dry when using just about any cutting tool. Dry cutting will result in a bigger mess and may increase the risk of chipping or cracking, but if you’re just making small cuts, dry cutting is a safe and viable option. Cutting dry also means you can apply tile grout sooner, so it’s better for rushed projects.

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.

It’s easiest to start from an edge as it gives you a straight line. A problem may arise if your edge doesn’t line up perfectly, in which case it’s best to start from the center. Some think that starting tile from the center adds a focal point in the center of the hearth. 

Penny tile should be sealed to protect the grout from moisture and keep stains from damaging the look of the tile. If penny tile is in a humid or high-traffic area, like a bathroom, kitchen, or entryway, it needs sealant. Any type of tile and grout is best maintained with a sealant reapplied by a pro every one to two years.

For glass tile, you want to use unsanded grout. Sanded grout is a stronger and grittier cement grout that is great for installing tiles with wider gaps and into joints. However, it is susceptible to scratching glass tile and is more difficult to use in thinner gaps. Unsanded grout, while more expensive, is easier to fit between thin gaps and is less harsh on delicate materials, like glass tile.
