"I had a shower pan leak and Ancelmo was able to come in and rebuild/re-tile my entire shower in four days. I can only review the beauty of his work on the outside and unable to review the installation of the new shower pan with proper water sealing. I can only have faith and hope the leak does not rear its ugly head. The entire job was executed without much disturbance and mess. The cost relative to the work performed and the time it took was exceptional! I would recommend Ancelmo to any future customer, and would hire again myself!"

"Pyramid was recommended to us by a friend who has done a lot of remodeling and has priced granite in many locations in the area. She was right--after shopping around for a granite or quartz countertop for our guest bathroom remodel, Pyramid Granite had the best selection AND best price. We were looking for something that would coordinate with existing tile in the bathroom and it was easy to find several choices at Pyramid. They were very professional, helped us make a decision, came out to measure and delivered the product ON TIME. We ultimately settled on granite and our countertop is gorgeous--we will definitely be coming back when we remodel our primary bathroom! Ask for Temon--he is great!"

"We have lived through many remodeling projects over the years and Looney's Grout & Tile is the absolute BEST at what they do. What an incredible find! Jorge and crew were so skilled, efficient, and kind. The marble shower tiling project that had once seemed such a chore transformed into an inspirational makeover. That is some serious renovation magic. Awkward shower enclosure becomes a showstopper! We cannot thank Looney's enough for this whole process...from the quick and easy estimate to the consummate professionalism of our star installers. We are beyond thrilled. If you are reading this and wondering whether to start that tiling project of yours, please take this as a sign to contact Looney's; you will love the results!"

"We hired Sam for dry wall repair after a pipe burst and water valve replacement. Since we had him there he also replaced a shower drain and did our kitchen backsplash. He was professional and always on time. Prices are very fair. He did great work on all projects. Will definitely use him again."

"Marconi and his team were excellent. They did a superb job with the installation of new hardwood flooring on our first floor: livingroom, dining room, family room, office and foyer. They were punctual, professional, reasonably priced and they completed the work on time. They were detail-oriented and the work they performed was noteworthy. Bottom line: I will definitely use Marconi again for other projects I have."

"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!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

There are a few different tools you can use to score tiles. Manual tile cutters or tile scribes work well for scoring in straight lines. Tile nippers are one of the best options for scoring because they can make small and irregular cuts that larger tools may not be able to handle.

You can lay tile directly on a plywood countertop, but if it’s a high-traffic surface in a kitchen, it’s better to add a moisture-resistant base. Plywood is susceptible to moisture, so if dampness seeps through from the surface around the sink or where you prep food, it can cause the plywood to warp, leading to grout damage, cracked tiles, or mold growth under the surface. 

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.

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.

Regardless of the material, basic square tiles will never go out of style. Neutral colors like white, grey, beige, and black will always be in demand in residential and commercial settings. Certain designs, like herringbone and hexagonal patterns, are considered timeless. Porcelain and porcelain-like tiles will also never go out of style.
