"Hector was a joy to work with. He ably guided in pick the best tile (we made him order multiple samples) and patiently humored our pickiness, even coming by several times to talk over the best options, before we’d even signed! Throughout the demo, install, and cleanup, he and his small crew was professional and considerate of our family. We even added some work mid-project, and he transparently let us know that would be extra hours, but I’m so glad we did. It looks fantastic."

Customers say: Terrific value

"My tile floors were cleaned and sealed, they now look terrific. George and his Father, went out of their way to cover stains and nicks. George even said he would return to lift a heavy plant when I purchase a new saucer. And he left a cleaning product to maintain my floors. I certainly highly recommend him."

"Lindgren Construction is the best. I hope to work with Eric again. 
I own a rental property in Hollister with a long triangular yard with public access on both sides. 
I wanted a tall redwood fence around the side and back perimeter of the property: a total of over 370
linear feet. I am staying in Arizona and needed to hire a contractor site unseen.. 
I made contact with Eric and we communicated regularly via telephone and text. In all his dealings
with me he was clear and respectful. 
The existing fence had to be removed.
It was a mix of old railroad ties, horse wire, and ancient redwood. Against the back fence was overgrown weeds and
possibly some trash that would need removal. Yucca plants grew on the back fence and would need cutting before the
new fence could be installed.  County approval would be needed.
Eric gave me a quote, which was too high. He then redesigned the fence to 5' to lower the cost.
The job was begun and finished within four days of receiving my down payment. 
There were some adjustments along the way..I asked to have it stained. He used a very good quality
light redwood stain. We had some huge Yucca trees in our driveway encroaching on the neighbor's garage.
Eric offered to remove it for me, and did so on the last day of the job. . In all things
it was easy to work with Eric. He clearly went out of his way to do the best possible job. My renters
report his workers where great people to be around. 
The finished product is beautiful. It shows excellent craftsmanship and good esthetic sense.
 I have only given him four stars on price because it was a lot for me. I did no price comparison.
I can tell you it was well worth the expense. My property is much enhanced?way more than I expected
when we started. It's beautiful! Eric is a great guy who will go out of his way to do a great job.

"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You can lay tile directly on a plywood countertop, but if it’s a high-traffic surface in a kitchen, it’s better to add a moisture-resistant base. Plywood is susceptible to moisture, so if dampness seeps through from the surface around the sink or where you prep food, it can cause the plywood to warp, leading to grout damage, cracked tiles, or mold growth under the surface. 

While you shouldn’t use thinset mortar on its own as a floor leveler, it can work alongside other products to help level floors. For instance, you could start with a self-leveling compound, let that dry, then apply backer board with thinset mortar to help fully even out the floors ahead of laying tile.

Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.

Travertine is a natural stone, while porcelain is ceramic. You can enjoy the best of both worlds with porcelain travertine tiles. Some people prefer porcelain to travertine because it doesn’t require regular maintenance and it’s easier to clean. Porcelain travertine looks like the real thing but only costs $3 to $6 per square foot.

In some cases, granite tiles can be installed over existing flooring if the surface is level, stable, and free of moisture issues. However, removing old flooring is often recommended to ensure a secure and long-lasting installation, as well as to avoid height differences at thresholds. Consult with your flooring pro to determine the best approach based on your specific situation.
