Best backsplash installation pros near Mecca, CA

"Michael responded almost instantly to my request for assistance in replacing my kitchen backsplash. He came to my home the following morning to provide an estimate of the project cost; he arrived precisely on time; and he provided me with several design options, expert advice, and a very reasonable price to complete the job. Accordingly, I hired him to do the work. When Michael and his assistant, Dylan, came back to install the replacement backsplash, they worked very efficiently and effectively; they were both very affable and professional; and they were extraordinarily thoughtful and careful in keeping the entire work area as clean as possible. I am delighted with the final outcome of the project, and I am pleased to highly recommend Michael Allen Tile to anyone looking for an experienced, competent, reliable tile contractor."

"We hired Sam and his professional team to remodel our master bathroom, guest bathroom, remove some lighting and to install recessed lights in the kitchen. We are very pleased with the work they did! All the bathrooms are gorgeous and the recessed lights are perfect. Sam and the crew worked at the house every day until the remodeling was completed. They worked very professionally and efficient. Definitely perfect craftsmanship. Sam was also easy person to work and talk with, very comit man to all of our requests. We’ve absolutely found our contractor!"

"Today, Kris and one of his employees came to remedy my complaints.  He explained that he hired a tile layer (who did my job) through a general contractor who he often works with and offered to find the same limestone and have someone else replace the tiles that were gouged, chipped and not layer evenly at no additional cost.  The other alternative was to sand down the lip of the poorly placed tiles and grout.  I chose the later. In addition, they cleaned and grouted areas that they missed before.  
Kris was eager to remedy the problems I identified and put me on his schedule to clean my limestone floors next year at no charge.  He is truly and gentleman, eager to do a good job for me, who had the misfortune of a couple of problem employees who no longer work with him."

"Bought a house to be flipped, replaced any damaged areas and bring the house up to date with modern features. The bathroom needed re-tiled. The driveway was badly in shape , layered and designed concrete was used. All the kitchen cabinets were stripped and refaced . Stained that matched the decor. The roof was replaced with new shingles."

"I have a 2 bed/1bath townhouse.  The bathroom is small which is why I wanted professional input on how to make it a better space, perhaps ideas on storage/built-ins etc.  I thought that we would discuss (in general) cabinets/tile/paint etc and that he would be able to show me a 3-D picture of what my bathroom would look like once remodeled.  Maybe I got that idea from the title on the voucher or I watch too much HGTV.
He showed up on time and was professional.  I don't remember his name.  But he said that my bathroom was 'too small' to create a 3-D picture.  I found that a little ironic since the quote given to me was $10,000 for a remodel of my small bathroom. Especially considering that I wanted to keep my floors and I already had a marble countertop left over from the kitchen remodel.  
Beyond that, he did not have any additional design ideas on how to make the space more usable.  He did show me pictures of tile work from other jobs, which was nice, but I was expecting more.  
So be warned, if you have a 'small bathroom' they will NOT be able to provide a 3-D rendering of your bathroom.  Basically I paid $49 for a quote.

"Chris contacted me after my review was posted and asked what he could do "to make things better."  He did everything I asked him to do and more - including completely replacing the tile floor when all that was really necessary was fixing a few tiles. He did the work himself and does indeed do the beautiful work mentioned in other reviews. I'm saw much improvement in timeliness, punctuality, and professionalism - he seems to have been going through a bad patch and is really working to turn things around. This time I would consider working with him again.


9 weeks for a very straightforward bathroom redo - no construction; just swapping out fixtures and adding tile - need I say more? The job still isn't really finished; I just reached the point where I had enough. To be fair, maybe a week of that time is down to the fact that there was no water shutoff in the condo for the bathtub and the HOA isn't especially accommodating about such issues. But on the whole, they were out maybe once or twice a week - if at all. The work itself was mediocre - and sometimes it had to be redone to get it to that standard. The floor tiles aren't well aligned and more than one is cracked; the grout wasn't sealed; the vanity top was initially installed at an angle from the wall (at one point 3/4" away from it) and without the stopper to operate the drain. I began to get the impression that he was just dropping off not-very-competent workers and leaving them to work unsupervised. That was particularly a problem because I couldn't be at home myself - Chris has a key but he didn't seem to be very careful about who he let in to work without supervision or who he gave it to, and he still hasn't returned it.
Chris was more than willing to pick up items I couldn't manage - like the tub - but actually getting it done took repeated phone calls and didn't happen until the vendors started threatening to cancel the order or charge storage. He was also happy to accommodate some of my more finicky requirements - except they didn't get done. I had some issues about charges and payments and had asked for a detailed breakdown - the last message I received from him was he was going to have Liz send it that day; then he would call me to discuss it, and come out to fix the leak in the shower head he had installed (this would be the second attempt to fix the leak) - none of that happened.
There are two or three other jobs that I need to hire someone to do - it definitely won't be Most Wanted Construction.
