"Steve arrived on time, was professional and courteous.  He performed work both at our home and at our vacation rental.  At our house, he replaced our screen and the latch to screen door as freebie.  The latch was a great bonus as I didn't even think to ask for this repair of our broken lock, but it is a huge help as we have pets that like to let themselves out the door occasionally and we were using a propped up stick to keep closed.  Steve also was a great help at our vacation rental in Kaanapali.  He did some paint touchups, reinstalled a cabinet and safe, as well as do a check of the drains to the sink and adjust our cabinet doors.  As I have found in the past that finding good help on Maui is not always easy, working with Steve was easy and his price was reasonable (also something hard to find).  I am happy to say I now have a handyman on Maui that I can rely on and have Steve scheduled to come back to the house in the next week for other repairs.

Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

Silicone caulk shouldn’t be used in place of grout because each material serves its own purpose. Thanks to its flexibility, silicone caulk is good for sealing around the perimeter of tiled floors, where movement and expansion might occur. However, grout is more durable, making it a better option for the joints in between tiles, which need to withstand constant weight and foot traffic.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

When choosing tiles for a shower floor, avoid highly porous tile materials, like those with a water absorption rating over 7%. Don’t use non-vitreous tiles, or tiles fired at low temperatures, because they will absorb more water. If you use a highly porous tile in the shower, the tiles can wear down faster, meaning they’ll need to be replaced much sooner.

If you’re out of spacers for your tile installation, you can use pennies. Each time you place a tile, stick the pennies around the edges (on the sides and the corners). Like working with spacers, you’ll want the same amount of space around each tile before they set.
