"Carlos and Marco did an excellent job installing 12” X 24” ceramic tile on my front porch. They removed the old tile and meticulously cleaned and prepared the concrete subsurface. They made sure that my wife and I were informed of each step of the project and showed up early and at the promised time. They cleaned up after each day and made sure to communicate with us each day. They did such a good job on the porch, I gave them another project to install back splash tile in a spare bathroom. I recommend Carfy Tile for any tile work you may have."

"He seemed just very honest and he has already come back once and said he would if I needed him. The bathroom tile, walls, floors and bath tub look just beautiful. I will try to post a picture!"
"Steve is fantastic a true craftsman attention to detail great. Watched him make his tile layers pull up a number of tiles when he did not like how they were set. Went out of his way to make sure my fireplace project would look great picking out the granite and new style stone work. He is a little slow but once he is there he stays on the job working saturday sunday and a holiday day. he him self started about 10:00 AM everyday but had a employee of his there usually around 8:00AM. Steve is old fashioned and personable when you get to know him. Would use him again in the future. "
"Matt with Mighty Blue showed up on time, was professional , and provided excellent service. We had all of our carpet, tile, and upholstery cleaned at what we would consider a very reasonable rate. I would highly recommend this company to any one. We were very satisfied with this service and will definitely be calling them again. "

"1) Kitchen: The cabinets were refaced and new granite countertops, sink, plumbing fixtures, oven, and microwave were installed.
|2) Master Bathroom - Complete remodeling of the bathroom including a large walk-in shower, ceramic heated tile floor, vanity, and toilet.
|3) Redecorating of the second bathroom, and three bedrooms including painting/wallpapering of walls, custom drapes and blinds, new plumbing fixtures, toilet paper holder, and towel holders/rings.

|Overall, I was very pleased with the job. All the Cabinet Clad employees and subcontractors were very polite, courteous, and clean and the quality of their work was uniformly excellent. There interactions with me overall were characterized by professionalism and integrity. There were a few situations where the communication could have been better, particularly when design plans were changed or the subcontractors' schedules needed to be changed. However, having said that, I would still highly recommend Cabinet Clad of KC. Their work was first class and I am thoroughly enjoying my upgraded kitchen, remodeled master bathroom, and redecorated bathroom and bedrooms."
You can put hot pans on porcelain countertops. Porcelain is highly resistant to heat—it’s manufactured at around 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit, so it can withstand a ton of heat without cracking or damaging. Even though the high heat is a plus, you should still be cautious when putting hot surfaces on porcelain countertops.
Altering the layout of your bathroom will make a big difference as moving or adding plumbing quickly inflates your total bill. While you can recoup more of your cost (in home value terms) by adding a bathroom, rearranging the layout won’t affect your home’s sticker value. However, strategic placements that allow more light or better flow may increase buyer interest.
Regardless of the material, basic square tiles will never go out of style. Neutral colors like white, grey, beige, and black will always be in demand in residential and commercial settings. Certain designs, like herringbone and hexagonal patterns, are considered timeless. Porcelain and porcelain-like tiles will also never go out of style.
You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered).
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.
