"Tony is a great guy and very meticulous. He did a full walk in shower and pan in ceramic tile including floor. We also had him do our kitchen backsplash. Been tiling 30 years, and knows what he’s doing. I would highly recommend."

Customers say: Quality work

"Tony did an amazing job on my tile install for the bathroom I am renovating. I am an Interior Designer and have uses different tile masons. Tony is efficient, clean on the job, and is a problem solver which is great when you run into snafo's like a bowed wall. With some minor adjustments to the mortar he was able to make the wall look level event though it was not. I would definitely hire Tony again."

"LEN WAS VERY PROMPT IN COMING OUT AND GIVING US AN ESTIMATE AND ANSWERED ALL OF OUR QUESTIONS. WHEN THE JOB WAS STARTED THEY DISCOVERED MORE WORK WAS NECESSARY THAN ORIGINALLY PLANNED. HOWEVER, THEY STUCK TO THEIR ORIGINAL PROPOSAL. HE WAS THERE WITH THE CREW AND THEY WERE NEAT AND PROFESSIONAL. THE WORK TOOK LONGER THAN PLANNED, BUT THEY COMPLETED IT QUICKLY THE FOLLOWING DAY. THEY DID A GREAT JOB OF CLEANING UP WHEN THE WORK WAS COMPLETED."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s possible to cut tile without a wet saw; instead, you can use an angle grinder, a glass cutter, a snap cutter, tile nippers, or a rotary tool with a tile-cutting blade. A manual tile cutter or snap cutter works well for the larger tiles that wet saws are typically used for, while smaller projects might just require nippers or a glass cutting wheel. If you’re working with large quantities of tile, however, power tools are best.

Here’s another instance of where the answer is you could, but that doesn’t mean you should. Yes, part of the issue is getting the drywall to stay in place on the tiles, and it’s understandable that screws will crack the tiles and cause them to crumble. That’s why it’s a much better idea to screw drywall into studs, not your porcelain or ceramic tile. But aside from issues with attaching the drywall, it’s also about ensuring a smooth application without trapping moisture inside.

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. 

Yes, unfortunately, it is normal for wall and floor tiles to crack, especially when you drop heavy items on tiled floors or place heavy objects on them. Tiles are also more susceptible to cracking when ceramic tiles designed for walls are installed on floors, as these are often not strong enough to handle heavy loads from foot traffic and furniture. Similarly, tiles that are installed incorrectly, lack adequate subflooring, or have other installation problems are prone to cracking. To avoid these problems and the inevitable repair and replacement costs they bring, always hire a professional for tile work and follow best practices for installation.

Yes, it would be best if you waterproofed your shower walls before tiling. The cement backing board behind the tile is not waterproof; it’s only water-resistant. On top of your tile backing board, be sure to use a waterproof shower membrane before you start installing your shower tiles.
