"Unlike most contractors, Jason called within minutes of being contacted. Did the work within a short time frame. About the work: We had water damage from a leaky pipe, and shower drain in our downstairs bathroom. We hired a local plumbing company to replace our whole house plumbing. After the plumbing was done, we were left with a half open wall of rotted studs, and floor plate on one side, and cutouts in the drywall on ceiling, and one other wall. Jason replaced the wall plate, and repaired the studs. Patched, and replaced the drywall. Installed wall tile, new toilet and vanity. Thanks to Jason our bathroom, and adjoining wall look fantastic, like the nightmare never happened."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

Common problems include cracks, loose tiles, and grout discoloration. Proper maintenance prevents many issues.

If you’re looking for a durable tile for a shower floor, consider porcelain, stone, or vinyl tiles. Each of these options, when installed correctly, will stand up well to everything from water and moisture to the impact from a dropped bottle of body wash. These materials are also easy to clean and maintain, making them popular options for shower floors.

Different types of tile cutters may work best depending on the type of tile you are cutting and the size of your project. There are two main types of tile cutters: manual and electric. Manual tile cutters are quick and easy to use for small projects and softer tile materials, but they can only make straight cuts. Electric tile cutters make light work of big projects and can cut through harder materials.
