"Ivan did a great job for us. He removed an existing stone backsplash in the kitchen and installed a tile backsplash in its place. Quality of the work was outstanding. Ivan arrived on time, kept dust and debris to a minimum and cleaned up after his work. His work followed installation of new countertops and he was essential to that process. He discovered a number of problems with the countertop installation that provided the support to the stone store for installation of replacement countertops. Also, the price for this work was fair and competitive. One of the things that set Ivan apart was his desire to come by and see the job in order to quote it competitively. He also provided input on tile and grout selection. Bottom line is that we recommend Ivan for any tile work and plan on having him do additional tile work in our home."

30+ yrs in home renovations, decks,kitchens and baths,quality finish and pride. No job to small,also repairs. I take pride In making people smile with quality workmanship and service. Please do not ask me to give an estimate over the phone or through text,there is an important step in giving an estimate by the presence of the contractor.
"My husband I bought a shell of a home that pretty much needed new walls and floors throughout. Shawn did that work as well as many other remodeling tasks like installing a new door and fixing a roof leak. He did great work and did it in a hurry as our current home was being sold and we were on a strict timeline. He kept us informed of all costs along the way. Both the expected and unexpected. We'll be hiring him again in the near future to install decks."

"We bought carpet and laminate from Brooks Flooring. The installation was so shoddy, we are having to replace the carpet less than four years after it was installed. They came out numerous times to "fix" the problem, which consisted of stretching the carpet to try to fill in the gap between the living room and the laminate in the dining area. Of course, three hours later, the gap was back. The carpet was cut too short and the installers tried to Mickey Mouse it instead of repairing it correctly. After trying to get it fixed, they basically said it was out of warranty and pretty much "ghosted" us. One of the employees said he would come out on a Friday and look at it - we're still waiting. Guess he didn't specify which Friday."

You can install new tile over an existing backsplash, but pros recommend taking the old material down first. Layering tile creates a gap where moisture can collect and makes it harder for the new adhesive to bond. Removing the original backsplash gives you a flat, clean surface, prevents interference with outlets or countertop space, and helps the finished project last longer.
To prepare a painted wall for tile, fill any cracks or holes in the existing paint. Use sandpaper to create an even, slightly rough surface for ideal adhesion. Next, gently wipe the wall with a damp cloth to remove dust, grease, or debris. Finally, apply a bonding primer before attaching the tile.
Gluing a backsplash is an effective installation method when you use the correct adhesive. Use cement-based or thin-set mortar along with mastic as needed to secure ceramic tiles. This method provides a strong, durable bond and is ideal for glass and stone installations when surfaces are properly cleaned and prepared. Adhering tiles with the proper adhesive ensures a robust and long-lasting finish.
Measuring your backsplash area is essential to determine the exact amount of tile needed. Begin by measuring the height and width of the backsplash in feet, then multiply these dimensions to calculate the total square footage. Do not adjust for small outlets or minor cutouts; only subtract the space occupied by large windows or significant obstructions. Finally, add 10% extra to account for waste, ensuring you order the precise quantity required.
