Cost guide
Porcelain costs more upfront but lasts longer on floors in El Cajon homes. Ceramic works well on walls and light-traffic rooms at lower cost. The choice depends on where the tile goes, how much traffic it sees, and your budget for replacement in 15+ years.

How it works
Before hiring, know what your job requires. Assembly, repairs, and small installations under $1,000 fit a handyman. Structural work, electrical changes, plumbing modifications, or anything needing permits requires a licensed contractor. Asking the right questions upfront saves money and headaches.
