Q: How do you finish the edges of a tiled hearth?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;t visible. You can also see if the tile you have has pieces that have been glazed or rounded on one edge. You&rsquo;d then cut the tile and place it normally, with the cut edge facing inward. </p></div>

Q: How do costs vary based on different types of tiles?

• <div><p>Tile costs vary by material; for example, ceramic tends to be more affordable than stone. These influence installation timelines and skill requirements.</p></div>

Q: Should grout be lighter or darker than the tile?

• <div><p>The grout shade you choose comes down to personal taste and preference. A darker grout will give you a more dramatic and noticeable contrast with the tile around it; however, lighter grout helps create a more uniform look when blending the colors together. Additionally, a darker grout combined with a patterned tile could be overwhelming to the eye, while lighter grout makes the pattern stand out as the main focus.</p></div>

Q: Should you tile the shower floor or walls first?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you&rsquo;ll want the wall tiles to &ldquo;sit&rdquo; neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to replace tile flooring?

• <div><p>Replacing tile flooring can take a few days for a pro, but larger rooms will need more time. It takes eight to 12 hours for a tiling pro to remove old grout and tiles across 100 square feet. Then, it will take about four hours to prep the subfloor for tiles and another eight to 10 hours for a pro to install new tiles. Your tiling project may take up to a week, depending on the size of the room. </p></div>

"He responded within 15 mins of my inquiry while he was even out of town for Thanksgiving. Came out very promptly to quote the job and came back two days later to complete it. Very good communication and customer service, he wanted to make sure I was happy with the finished product. I paid quite a bit more than the original contractor I had lined up had quoted, but overall I m very satisfied with his work. He even delayed an out of town trip to come back the next day to finish up some trim work, as this was a retrofit project that required modifications to the opening due to height difference."
