Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

Do tilers offer remote or virtual services?

Because tiling is a manual, in-person job, it is not typically considered a remote project. But if you come across a profile that states the tile company is offering remote services, ask them what those services include.

Can you tile over tile floors?

Yes, you can lay tile over existing tile floors (or a backsplash). Although it’s generally best to pull up your old flooring, you can simply place tiles on top if your existing floor is in good condition.

Before you start, examine your tiles carefully for mold, cracks or unevenness. Provided none of these is an issue, you can begin laying your new tiles. 

But if this is your first time laying tile — or if you want to ensure that the job is done right — save time by hiring a tiling professional near you

What do you need to lay tile?

If you’re laying a new tile floor, you’ll likely need an assortment of tools and supplies, including (but not limited to):

  • Tile
  • Tile adhesive
  • Tile trim
  • Tile spacers
  • Underlayment
  • Sealer
  • Caulk
  • Level
  • Goggles
  • Gloves
  • Trowel
  • Carpenter’s square
  • Grout
  • Sponge
  • Tape measure
  • Etc.

If you don’t have all of the tools, equipment and skills necessary to lay tile in your home, consider hiring one of the best tile contractors in your area.

Can you tile over drywall?

Yes, it is possible to lay tile over drywall. If you’re looking to lay a tile backsplash in your kitchen, you can certainly do it yourself — but hiring a professional may save time. 

Before you tile over your drywall, make sure the wall has a smooth surface with no bumps or cracks. Start by using a compound to seal up any crevices, then sand the drywall and clean up the dust. Then, lay a coat of primer on the drywall to get it ready for your tile. 

Does tile flooring increase home value?

Having a tile floor may increase your home’s value, but it might depend on the type of tile you install and the trends in the real estate market.

Chat with your realtor or a real estate expert to figure out what types of home repairs and remodeling projects you should tackle before you put your home on the market. It might make sense to add new tiles when renovating your kitchen or bathroom, for example. 

If you decide to include new tiling in your home remodeling project, contact the best tile installation pros near you to get free estimates.

What is the best tile?

There are many different types of tile to choose from, and they all have unique benefits when it comes to aesthetics, longevity, durability and safety.

Porcelain and ceramic tile are often popular in kitchens and bathrooms because they are water-resistant, making them a go-to choice for floors and backsplashes. Marble tile is also a great choice for kitchen and bathroom floors, and granite tiles are popular for countertops. 

Consult with a tile installation professional to figure out what type of tile you should install in your home.

How can I get my grout clean?

Dirt, mildew and grime can make your grout lines look downright tragic. If you have the ability, DIY tile and grout cleaning is definitely doable. Your main obstacles are time, project size, availability of the right materials and effort. Your first step in tile and grout cleaning is making sure the surface area is cleaned of basic dirt and buildup and wiped down. Be sure not to use a bleach-based cleaning agent, which could react dangerously with the vinegar used in later steps.

Depending on the delicacy of your tile and grout, it may be wise to start with water and friction before proceeding to a cleaning solution. In the shower you can spray the area while brushing gently, or use a spray bottle filled with warm water on countertops or floors. If water won’t do the trick, try a solution of equal parts warm water and white vinegar, and repeat the gentle brushing motion. This combination should begin to lift dirt and grime from the grout. For additional tile and grout cleaning power, baking soda applied directly to grout lines and sprayed with your water vinegar solution can help suds off sticky grime. If your DIY cleaning solutions aren’t doing the trick, store-bought sprays and pastes may have more cleansing power. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning and enjoy your sparkling clean grout.

Tile and grout cleaning supplies include:

  • Old standard or electric toothbrush
  • Stiff bristle brush
  • Spray bottle
  • White vinegar
  • Commercial grout cleaner

How much does it cost to clean tile and grout?

The national average cost for tile and grout cleaning ranges from $190 to $250. Pros may charge a flat fee or by the square foot. Rates can vary depending on the type of tile and grout you have (more delicate tiles may mean specialized products or careful handwashing), how dirty your tile and grout are, and what part of the country you are in (regional labor rates and costs to do business affect costs). For example, one floor cleaning company charges 75 cents per square foot for tile and grout cleaning for projects that permit cleaning by machine. Another company may charge $30-$50 per hour for hand-cleaning of tiles. Companies often charge a minimum fee for services to ensure their business expenses are met when they accept a job, no matter how small. In addition, a tile and flooring cleaning professional may charge added fees, such as $25 or more, to move heavy furniture or appliances.

How long does it take to lay tile?

Depending on the pro’s expertise, the size of the project and its complexity, the time it takes to lay the tile will vary. For some projects, it may take a few hours to lay tile while others will require several days of work. 

When planning a tiling project for your home, get free estimates from the best tile contractors near you and ask them how long it would take them to complete your job.  

What’s the difference between porcelain and ceramic tile?

Ceramic and porcelain are some of the more popular types of tile, but there are a few differences: 

Porcelain Tile

Ceramic Tile

More durable, have a longer lifespan

Cheaper, easier to install

Better for high-traffic areas

Recommended for interior floors, walls

Slightly more water-resistant

Softer, easier to cut

We are really happy with the tile work that MX Tile & Flooring did for us on our backsplash. Would definitely recommend and will be using for future tiling needs.

Andy was extremely responsive and professional. We moved in to a new house and fireplace tile didn’t fit with our design plans. Andy got rid of the old tile and installed the new tile. Beautiful work and great to work with! Highly recommend. You can see the before- black/gray tiles and after! Huge difference

Extremely frustrated. We completely redid our kitchen and after having them come to tile, the chalking turned my tile green on the bottom.

Two thumbs up for Modern Tile Installations!! I did a kitchen renovation and had demo'd the kitchen floor down to the joists myself. Thiago and team then built up from there putting in wall to wall subfloor and the tile. I'll be using them again for my bathroom floors. Straight grout lines and tile-to-tile levelness was expected since Thiago had high ratings and testimonials - so my critical area was regarding the new kitchen tile being level with the existing hardwood floors in the house. That came out perfectly and am so happy I did the extra work and planning with Thiago so that I have no transition steps up-down from tile to wood, nor transition strips across the top where the tile and wood meet. After the tile went in I installed kitchen cabinets and appliances on top - in other words the tile is fully wall to wall. My original subfloor was diagonally layed planks with small gaps between them, plus they had many knots/holes in the wood such that it was not appropriate as a base for the materials/tile, so that's why I had to demo down to the floor joists so that a new subfloor could go in. I'm still working on the finish carpentry i.e. baseboards, door casing, so ignore those unfinished areas in the photos. My tile is 12"x24", porcelain, Daltile Astronomy Nebula.

I would highly recommend working with Northland Tile Works. Aaron was skilled at his trade and I was very happy with the results. Competitively priced and I would hire again for another tile job.

Dave responded quickly with a quote to tile our kitchen backsplash and we were able to start within several weeks of accepting his quote. We had a lot of issues with our wall that Dave repaired before tiling could begin. Our tile had irregular edges making it trickier to work with, but Dave did a beautiful job lining everything up and we couldn't be happier with the end result. We plan on having him back to tile our tub surround as well.

Was looking for someone to fix the shower floor slope because the water never drained correctly. When Gerrit came out from McCarty Tile & Stone, I asked him if he could just tile over the existing tile to fix the slope. He said it would not be an issue. He explained what would need to be done, asked about tile and quoted a fair price. There was no pressure from him to do any unnecessarily work. It was a two day project and he started that day. After each day he cleaned up and no mess was left behind. I believe he enjoys what he does and it shows in his work. I now have a tile guy.

Did fast work to redo a portion of our backsplash. Required taking down tiles, putting up new ones and cutting tiles in a straight line. A little on the pricier side but job estimate didn't require as much time as was initially quoted.

Thiago was extremely professional and responsive throughout our entire project. He helped us in picking out a tile and grout that turned out beautiful. Him and his crew did a great job installing the tile, paying attention to detail along the entire way. When finished he ensured I was happy with the work. He also completed the job a day ahead of schedule! I’ll be using him again on future tile work.

Modern Tile Installations tiled my 80 year old bathroom floor and walls. Thiago and his crew did an excellent job. They were courteous, punctual and professional. I love my new bathroom. I would hire them again. Before (blue) and after.

It went great. This was the most stress free, easy, project we have ever hired for. Chris was so easy going, knowledgable, and prompt. I have never hired someone who didn’t require a deposit or ask to be paid anything until the job was completed. We purchased our own tile, Chris offered to pick it up at the Tile Shop, however the tile shop delivered to us. Never had a project go so well. I would recommend them to anyone

Working with Tec Tile was our best thumbtack experience. They were very communicative with fast responses. I had some inspiration images of what I was trying to achieve and they worked with me to get exactly what I wanted. They created a backsplash that looks like a marble slab out of 18x18 tiles that I had purchased by making their install look seamless as possible. I’m keeping g their info on file for friend and family who need tile work in the future!

Fantastic Job! Confirmed the leak with our old shower tile and made the plan to install new tile. The entire team was great. Quick and efficient while still paying attention to detail. They even patched the ceiling where the leak was coming through. Highly recommended and will use again in the future!
