Backsplash Installation for Reno homes, priced clearly and installed carefully.
A backsplash protects the wall behind the sink and stove and sets the style of the whole kitchen.
We help you pick tile that suits your counters, then install it with clean cuts around outlets, windows and cabinet edges.
Reno has about 120,491 homes, and the typical one was built around 1989; 38% went up before 1980.
Ceramic, porcelain, glass or stone compared on cost and upkeep.
Pattern laid out so cuts fall at the edges, not the middle of the wall.
Grout color chosen to hide wear, and sealed where the material needs it.
Typical installed prices in Nevada. Your own price depends on the size of the job, the materials and the condition of what is there now.

Final details and a walkthrough so you know everything works.
Small mosaic and handmade tiles take longer to install, so labor costs more per square foot.
Outlets may need box extenders after tile goes on; it is a small part of doing the job right.
Kitchen work that changes plumbing, electrical or gas lines, or moves walls, needs a permit; cabinets, countertops and paint on their own usually do not.

Nevada requires a contractor license for work of $1,000 or more in labor and materials combined, and for any job that needs a building permit or involves plumbing, electrical, heating or air-conditioning work, whatever the price (NRS 624.031). You can look up any contractor on the Nevada State Contractors Board website before you sign.
It can be, but it is the fastest way to grow a budget, because plumbing, gas, venting and wiring all have to follow. Often better storage or an island fixes the problem for less.
Send the form or call. After a walkthrough you get a written quote that breaks the work down by cabinets, counters, labor and the rest, so you can compare it fairly.
