Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, as long as matching tile is available. Jacob will tell you honestly whether a patch repair is possible or whether a larger section needs to come out.
Both. Jacob handles bathroom floors, shower walls, kitchen backsplashes, and entryway tile. Each application uses the right setting material for the surface.
A standard bathroom floor takes one to two days including setting time before grouting. Larger projects or full shower surrounds take two to four days.
Jacob works with tile the homeowner supplies or helps source it locally. He will advise on quantity, grade, and suitability for the application before anything is purchased.
Subfloor movement, improper installation without backer board, thermal expansion, and settling are the most common causes. Jacob addresses the underlying issue so the new tile does not fail the same way.
If existing tile is fully bonded, no hollow spots, and the height difference is acceptable for doorway transitions, tiling over it is sometimes possible. If tiles are loose, the substrate is damaged, or there is moisture underneath, the old tile needs to come up first. Jacob checks before quoting.
Grout cracks from movement in the substrate, improper joint sizing, or skipped expansion joints. Jacob checks that the substrate is sound before laying tile, uses the correct grout type for the joint width, and installs movement joints at floor-to-wall transitions.
Backer board installation is part of the scope when it is needed. Jacob does not tile over surfaces that are not properly prepared. If the subfloor needs backer board or cement board, that work is included and quoted as part of the tile installation.
You can, or you can call first. If you have tile already purchased, Jacob confirms the quantity and type for the space. If you have not bought it yet, he tells you the square footage needed and what to look for in the tile spec for your specific application.
