"Removal of existing tile in our laundry room and replaced with new tile. They were a joy to work with. Came in and unhooked and moved washer and dryer to garage, removed very heavy 8ft door and removed old tile all in about 90 minutes. Next day installed new tile and grouted Did an excellent job with no mess and cleaned up everything. New tile looks great! Fast, friendly, reasonable and quality work Would recommend to anyone!"

"Tony was very friendly in helping me quote my project and recommend tile shops. He was a bit difficult to get scheduled to do the work, but once he made the time for my project and started the work he did an amazing job. My kitchen backsplash was chevron and had many cuts to do during the install and everything turned out beautiful."

"Jimmy is precise, professional, polite and considerate. He called ahead to let me know he was on his way and when I could expect him. Although we agreed on a later start time, he arrived 45 minutes earlier than the original time because he knew I wanted to get an early start on the project. He was very careful not to scratch the walls or furniture. He has an excellent work ethic and is reasonably priced. I am grateful for the work he did and I will definitely call him again as well as recommend him to my friends."

"He called me within 10 minutes of the request, was at my house 2 hours later, and worked in both my entire first floor and 2 upstairs bathrooms over a 2 week period. His attention to detail and professionalism is second to none. I will be hiring him again for some backsplash work in the kitchen. He does excellent laminate and tiling work."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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. 

You can let the tile sit without grout. Don’t panic if there’s a delay between installing the tiles and grouting. A substantial stoppage isn't a problem, provided you keep the tile surface clear of dust and debris. Also, avoid walking over less stable ungrouted floor tiles as they are more prone to premature cracking and shifting. 

You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered). 

The tile spacing you should use will depend on the tile and where you’re installing it. Choosing the right tile spacers to maintain a consistent gap between your tiles is tricky. Generally, tile spacing shouldn’t be less than 2 millimeters on walls and 3 millimeters on floors because of stress relief requirements. Getting it wrong can result in uneven tiles and early repairs.

If the hearth ends against a wall, you can use a tile cutter as you normally would. However, if the edge of your hearth ends with no surface pressing against it,you may want to look into rounded tiles. These give a smooth edge to your hearth and make sure cut edges aren’t visible. You can also see if the tile you have has pieces that have been glazed or rounded on one edge. You’d then cut the tile and place it normally, with the cut edge facing inward.
