"I highly recommend Richard from Tomahawk flooring. I hired them to do carpet installation at a rental property in Westbrook. Lowe’s ended up losing the carpeting I had purchased a few weeks prior and delivered other very inferior carpeting instead. Richard was able to secure new high quality carpeting for me the next day and sold it to me at a fair price. They completed a tricky installation (large odd-shaped room with 2 closets as well as a winding staircase) quickly and professionally. Richard’s team did such a great job on the carpeting that I hired them to replace a vinyl plank floor in my Scarborough home with hardwood. Again, the job was done quickly and professionally, working well into the evening hours so it would be done for me for Easter! I couldn’t be happier with Richard and Tomahawk flooring."

A straightforward professional installation takes six to eight hours, including setup and cleanup. DIY projects often stretch to 16 hours because homeowners must handle layout, cutting, and grouting on their own. Complex patterns or corrective prep work can add additional time, so always confirm the timeline with your tile contractor before work begins.
Tile professionals start with the shower floor, then move up the walls. Setting the floor first lets the wall tiles overlap the floor tile edges, creating a seamless, watertight joint and a clean visual line. Beginning at the base also establishes level reference points that keep wall rows straight and evenly spaced. Following this order minimizes cuts, speeds installation, and delivers the polished finish most homeowners expect.
The best tiles for a shower floor combine slip resistance with durability. Porcelain and ceramic tiles are popular due to their water resistance and variety of styles. Natural stone offers a unique, textured surface but may require sealing. Choose tiles with a matte finish or textured surface to prevent slipping when wet. Consult a professional tiler to determine the best option for your needs.
Yes, you need to waterproof shower walls before tiling to protect against moisture damage and mold growth. While cement backer boards used behind tiles are water-resistant, they are not entirely waterproof.
Applying a waterproof membrane or sealant over the backer board creates a barrier that prevents water penetration into the wall structure. Proper waterproofing is essential to extend the lifespan of your shower tiles and avoid costly repairs in the future.
