Your tile installation questions.

Answers about tile installation, preparation and planning.

Can backsplash tile go over painted drywall?

Often, if the drywall is sound, clean and suitable for tile. If extra preparation is needed, we will identify it before installation.

When is the backsplash pattern confirmed?

After booking and before installation. We use the selected tile and kitchen layout to centre the areas that matter and avoid awkward cuts where possible.

Who handles outlet changes?

We cut the tile around the existing devices. Any wiring, box or outlet changes must be completed by the appropriate electrical trade.

What should I send for a backsplash estimate?

Tell us your city and the approximate backsplash area. Add the tile size if known, and mention whether you want the existing backsplash removed. You can email kitchen photos if you have them.
