Porcelain tile installation as backsplash
If sanded properly, it is okay to install porcelain tile over laminate
as a back splash behind a stove? Also, can porcelain tile be installed directly onto solid oak wood? Oak has been part of house for 25 years. Ideally, I would use 1/4" backer board, but 1/4" thickness is still too much in this situation. Thanks. |
