"Ancelmo Molina of CM Tile was prompt, efficient, communicative and affordable. We had a small job, too small for some contractors, but Ancelmo jumped right in (on a national holiday!) and he completed the project in one morning. Good work at a good price - I recommend CM Tile, it was a positive experience for us, Chris D. Springfield, VA 22150"

"Grout Masters can do more than grout. They removed shower doors, repaired damaged wood, saved and re-used tiles for the repair area and re-tiled the shower floor for us. They installed shower shelves and caulked everywhere needed in the bathroom. They were super knowledgeable about the process and materials. We are so happy with their work!"
"We used Samâ s Home Improvement to create our backsplash. He had a good price, and we were very impressed with his subcontractor, Luis Quispe, who actually did the tile work. He understood our plans, gave some suggestions, and was flexible with changes. The end result is fabulous."
"Haroon, showed up on schedule, provided excellent customer service and performed a high quality carpet repair job. Outstanding work, I would use him again and refer him to others."
"I've previously used Nicholas & Associates (N&A) for a bathroom remodel (2016) and this time (March 2018) for a complete kitchen remodel & master shower renovation. The contractor's site visit was comprehensive and practical without any pressure to increase costs above my budget range. I was provided recommendations on where to save and where to invest money to get the most from my remodel. From start to finish, N&A's team inspired complete confidence. They completed the project ahead of schedule and below the estimated cost. Workmanship, Electrical, plumbing, walls, tile, lighting, appliance installation were all done to exacting standards and no re-work! Employees were on time, professional, courteous, and cleaned up after themselves every day. My friends and neighbors were amazed at the high quality of this. This renovation has significantly increased the value of my home. Call Nicholas & Associates for exceptional work at a better price!"

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.
The cost depends on the type of natural stone. High-end stones can cost as much as porcelain, but it depends on the specific material. For example, the cost of flagstone pavers is typically $2 to $6 per square foot,which is much more budget-friendly than porcelain. Outdoor slate tile can cost as much as $35 per square foot,which is about the same as porcelain.
You can put hot pans on porcelain countertops. Porcelain is highly resistant to heat—it’s manufactured at around 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit, so it can withstand a ton of heat without cracking or damaging. Even though the high heat is a plus, you should still be cautious when putting hot surfaces on porcelain countertops.
If you hire a professional to install a new floor, you can expect to pay between $50 and $75 per hour for labor. It takes two days on average to install a new floor as part of a bathroom remodeling project, but your timeline depends on your bathroom’s size and layout.
