Backsplash Installation in Hartford County, CT
The smallest tile job in the house and the one people stand closest to — so every cut, outlet and edge gets looked at properly.
Professional Backsplash Installation You Can Trust
A backsplash is a few square feet of tile that people examine from eighteen inches away while they wash dishes. That changes what matters. Nobody inspects a floor that closely, but everyone notices a crooked cut around an outlet, a grout line that wanders, or an end that just stops without a finished edge.
Tico's installs subway, mosaic, glass, ceramic and stone backsplashes in kitchens, bars and laundry rooms throughout Hartford County, CT. The work is detail work: planning the layout against the range and the window, cutting cleanly around outlets and switches, and finishing the outside edges properly instead of leaving raw tile.
Common problems we solve
- Bare wall between countertop and cabinets that's hard to keep clean
- A dated backsplash that's holding the whole kitchen back
- Painted wall behind the range taking constant grease and splatter
- A previous install with crooked outlet cuts or unfinished edges
The Tico's Approach to Backsplash Installation
Laid Out to the Focal Point
The pattern centred on the range or window, so the eye lands on a full tile, not a sliver.
Clean Cuts at Outlets
Openings cut tight and square, with cover plates sitting flat against the tile.
Edges Actually Finished
Bullnose, metal trim or a mitred return — never a raw cut tile edge left showing.
Finished in Around a Day
Most kitchen backsplashes are set in a day, with grouting after, so your kitchen comes back quickly.

Backsplash Installation Questions, Answered
How long does a backsplash take?−
Most kitchen backsplashes are tiled in a day and grouted the following day. Intricate mosaics or herringbone patterns take longer because of the cutting involved.
Do the outlets need moving?−
Usually not. We cut around existing outlets and switches, and cover plates sit flat over the tile edge. Occasionally a box needs an extender to sit at the new surface depth, which is straightforward.
Can you tile over the existing backsplash?−
Sometimes, if it's flat, sound and doesn't create a depth problem at the countertop or cabinets. More often removing it gives a better result, and it isn't a big job at that scale.
