"Exceptional work. Vinyl siding as removed and JamesHardie siding was installed on 3 exterior sides of my home. This work was completed in two and one half days. The work was outstanding and our home looks beautiful. The workers were professional and diligent. The owner was a pleasure to work with. He was immediately responsive with the initial estimate and for any follow-up items. He was professional and courteous. We would definitely use Inspired Exteriors for any future work."

"We love our walk-in shower. The whole process was very smooth and a good price. Sam listened to what we wanted and patiently helped us choose the best options for our needs. There was absolutely no rushing or pressure!! Installation was scheduled a short time later. Installation was smooth, professional, and completely cleaned up when Sean and his team member were finished. It looks great!!"

"Initially had very fast turnaround time to have my shower installed but was then hit with several delays. On my installation day; however, Micah and Sinan were great."

"Service was great from sales, to installation, to post installation support. Very responsive, very professional. It's hard to find in this 'space'--there are a lot of shady people in basement water damage/repair, and this place exceeded expectations. We've had our repair in place for 4+ years, with only 1 small issue on a wall seam crack, and that was fixed within 24 hours of reporting the issue. Stand up place! Thank you for such great service and support."

"We hired Martin’s Home Improvement for an extensive home renovation project . We had windows, siding, three bathrooms, and changes in the floor plan done. We couldn’t be happier about how every single project turned out. The work crew was very professional, respectful to our property, and showed excellent craftsmanship. The tile work in the bathrooms is immaculate, and windows, siding, drywalls are installed perfectly. We couldn’t be happier on how our home turned out. We are glad we put our trust in Martin and his crew for our house renovation . We highly recommend Martin’s Home Improvement !"

"I was very satisfied with the quality of the drywall repair that A Step Above did for me. I had several rooms in my house in need of some major TLC and they definitely delivered. They let me know about pricing and what to expect up front and answered all of my questions while being professional throughout the entire process. Everything turned out great and now you can't even tell where the damage was in the first place."

"Mike, Mary and Rich took a bathroom from 1948 to 2018! Our bathroom was a complete disaster, with old tile, plumbing and a cast iron tub. Now I would be proud to show in a magazine. A miracle. They arrived on time, stayed within budget and were very nice. Completely comfortable having them in our home! Highly recommend!!!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.

If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.

Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.

While tile is the best option in the bathtub, don’t forget to consider the flooring around the wash station. Moisture-holding carpet is a no-no, but is tile or vinyl better for dogs? Tile flooring is tough, moisture-resistant, cool, and scratch-proof. However, it’s more tricky to install and costs more than vinyl flooring. If you opt for vinyl, select tough luxury vinyl flooring; otherwise, canine claws could quickly damage the surface of standard, budget vinyl.

Different types of tile cutters may work best depending on the type of tile you are cutting and the size of your project. There are two main types of tile cutters: manual and electric. Manual tile cutters are quick and easy to use for small projects and softer tile materials, but they can only make straight cuts. Electric tile cutters make light work of big projects and can cut through harder materials.

Glazed ceramic tiles don’t need to be sealed because the glazing already offers some protection against moisture. Unglazed ceramic tiles need to be sealed to keep the porous tile safe from moisture and staining. However, both types of tile can benefit from sealing. Sealant can make the tiles easier to keep clean and offer more resistance to water, spills, and stains.
