Some grout lines are inconsistent, there was small amounts of grout left on tiles. Some tiles bulge out. I will say he did help me figure out how to tile out the window in my tub (other installers had no idea what to do) and it was a pretty slick install. Props to Bruce on that. I would probably use Bruce again. He came out quickly after I called for initial evaluation, had a reasonable bid to me fairly quickly, and started work fairly soon after I accepted even though it was around the end of the year. He also drove from Indianola to my place in Ames. That alone is worth a bunch because other installers I got estimates from took forever at every step of the bidding process and they were in town.

Brian was very professional and knowledgeable. He was prompt with his quote and scheduled the installation within a week of my acceptance. The installation took a day and half, which is typical for both furnace and a/c. Sheets were laid on the floor so they wouldn't soil the carpet. His installer was very competent, professional and polite. I have the utmost confidence in his abilities. The sheet metal./duct work was very tight and looked very good when completed. Every thing was cleaned up when the job was completed and there wasn't a speck of dirt left on the floor. I'm a very picky consumer and I'm completely satisfied with the job.
Once the job was complete, Brian brought me the warranties and the paperwork for the rebates. (Which he had already filled out for me and all I had to do was sign and date.)

Part of that time was because the glass was ordered from a factory. The other chunk of time is because they continued to try calling my husband who was out of town and unreachable. He called their office prior to leaving town, gave them my number, and told them he would not be able to take calls. They called him several times, then stopped and waited for him to call them back. Very frustrating for me who expected the window to be installed before he returned. When they finally came to install the glass, they weren't even sure they could finish the job because they thought the person doing the measurements screwed up. They finally figured everything out and completed the job. Then, they asked for payment on the spot. My husband had told the office that the neighbor who broke the glass would be paying for it, but since she wasn't home, I was hounded for payment. I'm not the type of person to be hounded and said as much. I understand needing to collect payment for services rendered, but we had already talked this over with the people at his office and they knew payment was to come from out neighbor. He was a lot nicer and called his boss who said he would like payment by the end of the day. Horrible communication. We won't use this company again. I'd rather pay more for a company from out of town than deal with this company again. We should have checked around more.

FAQs for dishwasher installation projects in Earlham, IA
If your refrigerator needs to be repaired, contact an appliance repair company to diagnose the issue and repair your refrigerator. It’s okay to leave it plugged in and running, but unplug it if it makes unusual noises.
Signs that your refrigerator may need repairs include:
Food items are not being held at the correct temperature (between 35 and 38 degrees Fahrenheit)
The fridge is using too much energy and seems to run all the time
Loud and/or unusual noises
Possible causes include:
A damaged door
Faulty condenser coil
Malfunctioning control board
Contacting an appliance repair professional as soon as possible can help save items in your fridge from spoiling. Common fridge repairs include the compressor, control board, thermostat, defrost motor, coils, and ice maker.
In most cases, appliance warranties do not transfer to new owners. However, some exceptions apply. To check the status of your appliance warranty and whether you can transfer it when you move, review the terms and conditions of your warranties or consult your home warranty service. When purchasing a new appliance or one from a previous owner, be sure to pay attention to its warranty status, including the type of coverage and any exclusions.
Typically, most appliances last anywhere from 10 to 15 years, depending on the appliance, brand, and amount of use. Keeping a regular maintenance schedule, including cleaning and tune-ups, also helps appliances last longer. Dryers, gas stoves, and refrigerators tend to last the longest, averaging about 13 to 15 years. Microwaves and dishwashers tend to last about 10 years on average.
The average cost to repair an appliance depends on the appliance, make, model, the part that needs repair, and how long it takes to replace or repair a part. The following are the average repair costs for the most common appliances:
Refrigerator: $200–$300
Freezer: $90–$500
Oven, cooktop, range: $100–$500
Microwave: $50–$400
Dishwasher: $160–$300
Garbage disposal: $70–$250
Washing machine: $50–$450
Dryer: $100–$400
Appliance repair contractors may charge $40 to $120 per hour for labor, and most also provide the replacement parts necessary at an additional cost. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays and emergency fees may apply if you need your appliance fixed immediately.
The cost of home appliances ranges from $350 to $8,000 or more, depending on the brand, type of appliance, and features. Additional cost factors include any hookups that need to be installed, such as gas, plumbing, or electrical. Keep in mind that major appliances, such as refrigerators, washers and dryers, and water heaters, will cost more than minor appliances, such as microwaves, due to the size, complexity, and essential nature of the item.
