"Let's add a + to the 5 stars, as Jeramie exceeded my expectations! I first retained Jeramie to do the kitchen backsplash in my almost hundred year old house. The challenge was retaining the existing tile backsplash at the gas range and incorporating some of the same (extra tiles I had saved) with new tiles of a different dimension. Jeramie did an excellent job installing an accent strip of the old tile that tied the whole look together. A couple of months later, I had Jeramie return to repair the original bathroom floor. We had both thought the broken tiles could be replaced, the floor cleaned and re-grouted. After working on a section, it was clear that the very old floor couldn't be salvaged and new tile should be installed. After checking the door clearance, how level the floor was and the placement of the radiator, Jeramie recommended installing new tile on top of the old. He had experience doing this and said it was the most efficient and cost effective way to go. A week later, I was thrilled to see the beautiful new floor which undoubtedly adds value to my home. When it came to fix my fireplace hearth floor, of course I called tried and true Jeramie. This was another challenging project. The original clay tiles at the edge of the hearth were broken. There were chunks missing and the overly thick grout was cracked and loose. Instead of just replacing the border, Jeramie checked the entire hearth and discovered that all the tiles were loose. He ripped everything up, reinstalled the best salvaged tiles with smaller grout lines that lined up with the new mosaic tile border. The border edge was then trimmed with wood that took care of a floor plank that was lifting on one side. In addition to the excellent work that Jeramie performed, he was a pleasure to work with. He communicates well, shows up when he says he will, quotes fairly, listens, problem solves and explains. In a prior life, I worked in an architectural firm, so I have a good sense of design, understand what can and can't be done, and am a stickler regarding details. Like I said at the start, Jeramie exceeded my expectations. I recommend him highly and intend to keep retaining him for future projects!"

"Yuriy (and Nikolai) did a masterful job of installing large-format porcelain tile in my dual-bathroom remodel. He worked closely with my carpenter to determine intricate framing for aspects like a subtly sloped shower floor (to facilitate a zero-threshold shower with linear trench drain), built-in t.p. holder, wall-mounted toilet and more. Yuriy made three different tiles (floor, walls and accent wall) sing. He nailed the grout-lines and gave experienced input so that I didn't make short-sighted, rookie decisions/mistakes. He and Nikolai were a pleasure to see every day (for two weeks!) and were reliable, prompt, long-working and didn't go missing or flake-out like most contractors can do. He recommended a great electrician and let me know that Octagon Construction performs full remodels."

"Yes, the job was well done and on time. We had a problem with the tile and grout in our walk-in shower. He explained what the problems were with the original installation and then cleaned the tile and replaced the grout. He also installed shower bars which will help us from falling in the shower. We highly recommend this gentleman."

"We needed to re-grout our shower. They were a little higher priced than other bids, but had great reviews, so figured was worth the cost. It was. They were quick to schedule, quick to do the work. The work looks great and there was a minor imperfection that I sent them the day after. They were back withing 24 hours to fix it. I recommend."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Figure out how much tile you need by measuring the backsplash area. Measure the height and length in feet and multiply to get the square footage. Don’t make adjustments for outlets or small cutouts but subtract the square footage for windows or other large obstructions from the total. To account for waste, get 10% more than your calculation.

Glass, ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone are all excellent choices for tiling a shower floor. Some glazed finishes can be slippery when wet. Your tiling contractor can provide more information on which tiles will work best for your shower floor.

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

The best paints for shower tiles include epoxy, latex, or acrylic. Ideally, you should look for paints that are waterproof and mildew-resistant if you plan to paint shower or other bathroom tiles. You can even find waterproof paints made specifically for tiled surfaces, which will be the best option for shower tile paint that lasts as long as possible.

DIY is possible for small projects. Professional services ensure precision and long-lasting results.
