"Heinz provided us with a detailed, scaled, drawing of his plan for the project. After listening to our ideas he redrew the bench; we agreed on the style and he built what we wanted."

"Juan called me before he was heading out to do the work and arrived on time with his helper.  He explained the details of what he was about to do.  I was satisfied with what he was planning to do, and left him and his helper to do their work.  I periodically checked on the work.  When he was finished, he informed me and showed me exactly what he did and asked if I was completely satisfied with his work. He and his helper took under two hours to do the job.  I was very satisfied with his work and I cut him a check and paid him and thanked him for a job well done.  Julian and his helper were very professional, honest, and hard working folks whom I would definitely call again if I need his services.

"I was very impressed. Sonny and his team were wonderful at communicating with me while they were doing the job they were hired to do. They were on time, did great prep and clean up . The neighbors were already giving compliments to me and Sonny about his team’s exterior paint job on my house as we were doing the final inspection. I will definitely be consulting with Sonny about any future projects that arise."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

When choosing tiles for a shower floor, avoid highly porous tile materials, like those with a water absorption rating over 7%. Don’t use non-vitreous tiles, or tiles fired at low temperatures, because they will absorb more water. If you use a highly porous tile in the shower, the tiles can wear down faster, meaning they’ll need to be replaced much sooner.

It’s not a good idea to lay tile and grout on the same day. The adhesive or thin-set that sticks the tiles to the surface needs plenty of time to dry before you can grout. Wait for 24 to 48 hours, depending on moisture levels in the space. The tiles can become misaligned and more prone to damage if you don’t wait.

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.

Popular options include ceramic, porcelain, stone, and glass tiles, chosen based on the area (bathroom, kitchen) and desired aesthetic.

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.
