"This was a small job cleaning and resealing a slate floor. He came when he said he would to look at the job. Estimate was a little slow in coming. Once we made that connection he worked with me to get the job done in a timely manner. I am looking forward to seeing how long the nice finish is going to hold up I would recommend this businesd"

"Doors look very nice but I would like to be happier with the hinges. They are soft close and work fine on the smaller doors but not as good on larger doors and take room inside the cabinets because they extend inward but I would still use Newman again"

"Steve was such a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend him as a tile contractor. He installed our backsplash and it looks absolutely beautiful. He arrived when he said he would and was the most tidy contractor I have met in quite awhile. Bonus that he is genuinely a super nice guy! I will be using Steve in future projects."

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

When working on your bathroom floor tiling, you should always tile the floor first and then refit the toilet afterward. This has both practical and visual advantages—the tile will have a better seal, and the installation will look cleaner.

On the other hand, when you try to cut the tiles to fit around the toilet, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. It’s a lot more work, it’s hard to be precise, and mistakes or miscalculations can lead to future moisture damage to the tiling, grout, and subfloor.

When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.

The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic. 

For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.

Deciding between using a shower pan or tile will likely come down to the shower’s design. You can learn how to install a shower pan liner, but it has a standard look similar to most other showers, though there is some flexibility for material and color choices. Tile, on the other hand, can be customized and is set directly into the shower base. However, a shower tile floor is more difficult to install than a shower pan.

Tile removal costs about $2 to $7 per square foot unless you do it yourself. When you hire a pro, tile installation costs $5 to $45 per square foot. Costs vary widely, but they depend on the tile material (custom-made stone tiles cost significantly more than plain ceramic tile), location, and tile size.
