Q: How long does it take to tile a shower?

• <div><p>Most professional shower tile installations take between six and eight hours, depending on the size and complexity. Most projects get completed in a single workday. DIY-ing the project takes around three to four days or roughly 16 hours. However, this will vary based on the skill level of the person completing the work.</p></div>

Q: Does the floor have to be completely level for tile?

• <div><p>Your floors should be completely level for tile, otherwise you risk damaging the tiles in the future. When there are even small gaps or hills in the subfloor beneath the tile, this puts more pressure on the tile when you walk around on the floor. With repeated traffic, the tiles are at risk of cracking, and you&rsquo;ll have to deal with tile repairs sooner than if the floor was completely level.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to tile a shower?

• <div><p>On average, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-tile-a-shower.htm">tiling a shower costs</a> between <b>$1,800 and $5,000</b>, with most people paying around <b>$2,700</b>. The price of this project depends on multiple factors, including the kind of tile you choose, the size of your shower, and labor rates in your area. If you decide to tile your own shower (instead of hiring a professional), it&rsquo;ll likely cost <b>$800 to $1,400</b>.</p></div>

Q: Do you need backer board for tile on concrete?

• <div><p>A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn&rsquo;t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.</p></div>

Q: Can I cut tile without a wet saw?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;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&rsquo;re working with large quantities of tile, however, power tools are best.</p></div>

"It took a lot of phone tag to finally get the technician to our house, but once here he was efficient and professional and did an amazing job. The chip was in the edge of a white quartz countertop, very difficult to match perfectly, and the repair is absolutely invisible. Not the lowest bid, but worth the price."
