Choose a tile contractor who holds an active NYC DCWP Home Improvement Contractor license, carries liability insurance, and puts a waterproof membrane under every shower and tub. Ask for an itemized quote and photos of finished Staten Island jobs.
Yes. NYC requires a DCWP Home Improvement Contractor license for residential remodeling in all five boroughs, including Staten Island. Licensed contractors must also enroll in the city’s Trust Fund or post a $20,000 surety bond, and print their license number in their ads. You can check any license on NYC’s online lookup.
In our experience, Most kitchen backsplash installations take 1 to 2 days: tile is set on day one and grouted after the thinset cures, usually 24 hours later. A standard 25–35 sq ft subway tile backsplash rarely takes longer. Glass mosaic, natural stone or herringbone layouts can add a day for cutting and sealing.
Sometimes. IN our experience New tile can go over old tile only if the old floor is flat, fully bonded and crack-free, and doors still clear the extra ½ inch of height. We Staten Island floor tile contractors remove the old tile instead, because loose or cracked tile underneath shows through as cracks in the new floor.
Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) installation averages about $6 per square foot installed, with most projects at $5–$10 per square foot, according to HomeAdvisor. Labor alone runs $2.50–$6 per square foot.
For us in Staten Island, A heated bathroom floor costs about $2k on average, and most projects run $765 - $6300 , per HomeAdvisor. Electric radiant mats cost $1,000–$3,200 before tile, and labor runs $5–$10 per square foot. Electric systems suit Staten Island bathrooms because they add almost no floor height and need no boiler connection.
Yes. In our experience Porcelain is the best tile for showers because, under the ANSI A137.1 standard, it must absorb 0.5% water or less, while ceramic wall tile can absorb over 7%. It also resists stains and cracks. Pair it with a waterproof membrane such as Schluter Kerdi, because tile and grout alone aren’t waterproof.
I've seen Tiling a tub surround takes 3 to 5 days. Demo is day one, cement board and waterproofing day two, setting tile day three, and grouting and caulking day four. Wait 24 to 72 hours before using the shower so the grout and caulk can cure fully.
A Schluter-certified installer has completed Schluter Systems’ hands-on training for its Kerdi waterproofing and Ditra uncoupling membranes. Certification shows the installer was trained on the methods in Schluter’s installation handbook, which its system warranty is based on. Ask to see the certificate before you sign.
In our estimation, A tiled tub-to-shower conversion typically costs $6,000–$15,000 for custom tile or curbless builds. Prefab acrylic swaps run $1,000–$8,000, per ThePricer. On Staten Island, our conversions run $6+, including demo, plumbing changes, a waterproof membrane and tile.
A mid-range small bathroom remodel (under 50 sq ft) costs about $6,000–$15,000, and powder rooms start around $3,000, per Block Renovation. NYC jobs run higher: Block reports mid-range NYC remodels commonly reach $25,000. Tile choice drives much of the difference, with ceramic at the low end and natural stone at the high end.
A 1-day bathroom remodel installs acrylic panels over or in place of your tub and walls. It’s fast, but it limits size, color and layout. In our experience we've seen A tiled shower takes about 5 to 8 working days. it allows any tile, niche or bench, and can be regrouted instead of replaced. Choose one-day for speed and tile for long-term value.
