Backsplashes and kitchen floors across New Castle County.
A backsplash is a small area of tile that gets looked at more closely than any other surface in a house, because it sits at eye level, directly under the lights, on the wall people stand facing while they wait for a kettle. That changes how it has to be set. Everything is fitted around obstacles rather than despite them: outlets, switches, the window over the sink, the gap under a cabinet run and the ends where the tile has to stop somewhere deliberate. Cutting a mosaic sheet cleanly around a row of outlets while keeping the pattern running through is most of the skill, and it is exactly the part that looks wrong forever if it is rushed. The same applies to where the run terminates, which wants a proper edge rather than a raw tile. Kitchen floors are the other half of this, and they take the hardest wear of any floor in the house, which is why tile and luxury vinyl plank both make sense there. Where a kitchen floor meets the room next door, the transition is planned rather than covered. Same boundary as any other room: surfaces are the work, and moving plumbing or adding circuits is licensed trade work that gets referred out.
Floor and wall tile, mosaic, marble and pattern work, set to a layout that is planned before anything is stuck down.
02Hardwood, luxury vinyl plank and laminate through living space, laid to run with the room rather than against it.
03Shower walls, floors, pans and niches, with the waterproofing prep done before any tile is set over it.
05Subfloor flattening, old flooring removal and tile repairs, which is where most failed floors actually went wrong.
Tile is not a trade you can rush or hand off halfway. The person who measures your floor is the person who sets it.
Substrate checked flat and sound first, because tile telegraphs every dip and every soft spot beneath it.
Where the full tiles land and where the cuts fall is decided before anything is stuck down.
Set to a line, spaced consistently, then grouted and trimmed so the edges are finished rather than filled.
Where a job crosses into licensed plumbing or electrical, you are told plainly, not sold it.
