Laminate & LVPMurray mixes pre-war homes near State Street with post-war ramblers further out, so two houses on the same block can need completely different prep. Work in Murray leans toward substrate work before anything is set, because what is behind the old tile decides how long the new tile lasts. Tell us the room and we will come look at it.
Through the 1970s and 1980s the usual backing for wall tile was paper faced water resistant gypsum, the green board most people picture. It resists damp. It is not waterproof, and once water gets past a grout joint it stays in the board. Cement backer board only came into general use during the 1980s. That is why so much of the work in this kind of housing starts with what is behind the tile rather than the tile itself.

Yes. Murray is inside our Salt Lake County service area and we quote work across the whole county.

It is almost never the right call. Tile lasts on a flat, sound, properly waterproofed substrate, and covering a failing one hides the reason it failed. The old material comes out first, and what is behind it gets repaired.
We also work in nearby cities.
