"I just read the review in the “Remodeling - General” category dated 08/22/2017. I must say that my experience with Eric precisely mirrored those that were most eloquently expressed in that review. I am beyond pleased with the results of the bathroom remodel in which an ancient bathtub with its tired acrylic walls was removed and replaced with a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. As Eric consistently exceeded expectations in all aspects of this two-week project, I highly recommend him for your remodeling projects. As a result of the initial design consultation, Eric provided me with a detailed and what proved to be a remarkably accurate estimate of the costs. In fact, plumbing was the only item to exceed estimate due to a few hidden surprises that only revealed themselves when the walls were laid bare. Eric had advised us that this might be the case, so it was not unanticipated. The demolition phase involved removing the old bathtub, acrylic panels and underlying sheet rock. Also several layers of old flooring were removed. The resultant detritus was all quickly bagged and removed from the site. The hall and stairs leading to the bathroom were left clean upon completion of work each day. Eric amalgamates his intelligence, knowledge, experience, skill, and intense pride of work to produce an end result which defines the word "quality". I was continually impressed with how he could identify problem issues in advance, which allowed him to design and smoothly integrate solutions into the project. As the project evolved toward completion, his suggested a number of design improvements that significantly enhanced the final appearance. The finished tile work was simply superb. Eric engaged top-notch sub-contractors for the plumbing, glass and Wedi shower system (done by a certified installer). I noted that Eric was always careful to co-ordinate with the sub-contractors to ensure the intersections of their tasks and his went smoothly. We could not be at home at all times, but were very comfortable leaving him to work on his own. He was even careful to make certain that our intrepid indoor cat did not sneak out. If you want first class work done with attention to detail and executed with consummate skill by a really nice guy, look no further."

"I can’t recommend Clint and Footprint Floors any higher. We were feeling a little stressed with getting our tile kitchen floor installed and Clint made the whole process easy, and stress free. We had an old home with a non ideal subfloor. Josh was the installer, and he is a 10/10. The job was bid for 2-3 days but ended up taking about 6 due to a rotten subfloor. Instead of cutting corners as most would do, Josh replaced the subfloor and took the necessary time to make sure the floor was level and that the job was done right vs fast. Josh has an amazing attention for detail, and we couldn’t be more happy with how the floor turned out. Hire Clint and Josh if you want a perfect floor install for a very fair price."

"Had Empire install wood, carpet and tile in my house. The installers for the wood flooring were great. I need them to break it up over 2 weekends and they were very accommodating. These guys did a great job on the floor and made sure that all was cleaned up when they finished. The tile installer was phenomenal. He was very helpful with the pattern my wife wanted. The floor looks amazing. They did a good job installing the carpet but, I have never had an installer take all the remnants and scraps. If I ever needed a piece for a patch, I’m out of luck. All in all, they did a good job."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes. You can tile over tile if the old tile is in good shape, but this will also create a thicker floor. As a result, you may have to remove and readjust baseboards and other room trimmings and potentially even raise door heights to work with the higher floors. In most projects, it’s best to remove the old tile before installing a new tile floor.

No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn’t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.

If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it’s in good enough condition to lay new tile.

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all best tile for a dog shower. Consider your budget, tile durability, aesthetics, and, most importantly, practicality. Avoid tiles your dog will slide around on. Pebbles are a great non-slip option, but are pricey and tricky to install. Glass might look modern, but it’s not scratch-resistant. Small, floor-rated ceramic or porcelain tiles are economical and have many grout lines that make the surface more slip-resistant. Pick a matte finish rather than a shiny tile if you want it to hide stray mud and hairs better.

It’s not necessarily normal for tiles to lift, although it’s one of the common issues people may have with their tile flooring. Tiles correctly installed by pros with expansion joints should not lift over time. However, if the installation was done poorly, you might see tiles tenting or lifting as the house settles. This is more common in high-moisture areas with extreme temperatures.
