"Delighted with the final product- well done upgrades in our master bath. Especially pleased with the quality of the tile work. Generally responsive, occasionally we did find that we needed to call or text to see if /when subcontractors we’re coming, or else a day or more would go by without progress."

"We hired Rekdahl Tile and Stone to install 500 square ft. of tile. Mitch, the owner, did the work. He was meticulous in tile setting. The job turned out beautiful. He cleaned up after the job was complete. He was professional, courteous, and easy to work with. I highly recommend Rekdahl Tile and Stone."

"We are thrilled by the results! Mike and his crew took out 10 boxes of dirt from a hill in our back yard all manually! They then installed a 50 x 4ft retaining wall (fully permitted) on the hill. After that poured a 60 x 10 concrete deck and steps to our new upper deck that now overlooks the pool. They then covered the new wall and existing lower wall with new custom colored stucco. We have now doubled our backyard space and for the first time in 12 years be proud to show off our backyard!

"My boyfriend and I hired Natali after meeting with 4 other contractors. She offered us the best price and she was the most professional and knowledgeable. SoCal builders installed hardwood floors throughout, fully remodeled 3 baths and a full paint job. We then decided to retile the kitchen. Everything looks fantastic, we will use them again no doubt for future projects. Natali was very flexible and accommodating and her crew is very nice as well."
Completely renovating both the guest and master bathrooms. In the master bathroom, we're installing a spacious walk-in shower featuring dual black-finished shower heads, elegant floating benches, and marble wall tiles. Meanwhile, the guest bathroom will have a sleek built-in tub and stylish hexagon tiles.
This project involved adding a new master bathroom to the existing house. The shower features sleek white subway tiles complemented by striking black fixtures and shower door hardware. The bathroom floor is adorned with elegant white marble tiles, providing a seamless and luxurious finish. A white shaker vanity topped with a white marble countertop completes the space, creating a clean and sophisticated look.

"Our project isn't actually 100% complete yet but all that is left are a few minor touch ups. And that's exactly what I want to mention here. remodels done while you are living in the house are invasive and can be overwhelming at times. Sean and Natalie made it as painless as possible. When you reach a point where it's nearly done, there are always tiny details and minor touch-ups to be handled. These folks have made it quite clear that the job is not done until I'm completely happy and every nit I can pick has been exterminated. They will bring back the carpenter, painter, whateverâ even after the Andy Gump has been hauled away and the protective paper taken up off the floor in adjacent areas, if something is foundâ maybe months later, there is no worry about Sean and Natalie standing by their work and doing whatever is needed. Their work ethic and trustworthiness is phenomenal. And let me just mention their tile workâ  GORGEOUS! In our tiny bathroom they relocated the toilet to the other side of the room, removed the old 1942 tub and put in a marvelous shower with a low curb and grab bars, floating vanity, gorgeous glass vessel sink and even replaced the window and put in a larger door for easier access. The bathroom is now much better laid out and feels twice the size even though it's exactly the same dimensions. Best part is, there is practically nothing these folks can't do. So when it comes time to do our driveway, roof, add on a room or convert our garage to guest house or apartment, they can handle everything. Their name says "Property Services" and they really can handle anything your property needs. So far, everything I've been able to compare quotes on has been very competitive too so you won't pay extra for having a one-stop shop. I really like these folks and look forward to a long relationship with them."

"Sean and Kathy Guzman of San Andres Hardware came to my house today and installed a cabinet to put my modems and CPU in. Not only did they install the cabinet but they re-hooked up all the cables once they did. I was so glad they came. In addition to the cabinet I had them install a towel bar. They were on time, very professional, personable & knowledgeable and I DEFINITELY will call them for additional things I need done. I HIGHLY recommend them..... :-) If I could show you a before and after picture I would. BIG difference."

"Victor sent out Nicolas and his brother to do the tile installation. They did an excellent job and cut intricate shapes into the tile to fit around door jambs and the toilet flange. I think someone else would have just put a grout line there. Charged a reasonable fee to remove and replace the toilet. Cleaned up after the job, I even saw them vacuuming an area where they didn't do any work! Victor was patient with me as I had to postpone the job three times because my other contractor didn't finish when he said he would. Would definitely hire them again."

"We recently remodeled our bathroom with McCormick, and it was a fantastic experience. Khaled was informative, patient, and genuinely helpful, guiding us through choices for a perfect design. The team’s professionalism showed in their punctuality and quality. Every aspect was done with care, from tile placement to lighting. The transformation is truly impressive; the bathroom now feels open and luxurious. We’re beyond pleased with the result and look forward to more projects with them."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s always a good idea to keep a box or two of spare tiles after a home renovation project. Tiles can crack from improper installation, heavy foot traffic, and impact from drops. Having some extra tile on hand can make replacement fast, easy, and affordable. Plus, some manufacturers might discontinue particular colors or styles, and slight variations in tile colors between batches could mean mismatched tiles even if your product isn’t discontinued. Having a few spare tiles in storage can help avoid these issues, as well.

Like any painted surface, tile paint can peel and chip over time. However, tile paint can become especially susceptible to peeling during periods of high humidity. Other sources of excess moisture will also cause tile paint to peel faster than normal. And if the tiles are in a high-traffic area, like the entryway floor, tile paint will chip and peel faster.

Your floors should be completely level for tile, otherwise you risk damaging the tiles in the future. When there are even small gaps or hills in the subfloor beneath the tile, this puts more pressure on the tile when you walk around on the floor. With repeated traffic, the tiles are at risk of cracking, and you’ll have to deal with tile repairs sooner than if the floor was completely level.

Glass tile can cost as much as or more than other durable tile types. When choosing the right tile for you, knowing the advantages and disadvantages of each can help you make an informed decision. The pros and cons of glass tile include:

Pros

  • Light-reflecting to add brightness

  • Waterproof and mold-resistant

  • Made from recyclable materials 

Cons

  • High cost compared to similar and more durable materials

  • Usually requires professional installation

  • More easily scratched compared to materials like ceramic and porcelain

Natural stone tiles are durable, heat-resistant, and add timeless elegance to floors, walls, and countertops.
