"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."

"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, but you should only put tile directly on drywall in smaller areas that don’t experience excess moisture. For example, a small kitchen tile backsplash could work, but installing tile directly on the drywall in a bathroom or other chronically damp area is not a good idea. Either way, a cement backer board is a far more reliable solution, as drywall is susceptible to moisture and can warp or cause your tiles to crack.

Tile installation can be expensive because it requires more time and labor to install than many other materials. For example, laminate flooring can click and lock into place, and carpet comes in large rolls that you can secure to the floor. On the other hand, tiles need to be cut, laid individually, grouted, and left to cure.

Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.

Yes, cracked tiles allow water to seep through the substrate or subfloor, leading to mold and mildew growth. It can also cause severe structural damage. At the very least, water damage can cause your tile to lift from the substrate, meaning one cracked tile can lead to several cracked tiles. It’s a good idea to waterproof tile in areas with direct water exposure or lots of moisture.

Updating your backsplash without removing the tile is possible in a couple of different ways. First, you can remove the old grout and replace it with new grout to give your backsplash a fresh look. You can also change the grout color, which can have a surprisingly large impact on the final appearance of the backsplash. Finally, you can paint the original tile to totally change the look of the backsplash without removing it.
