"I have lived in my house for 23 years, and have never had anyone clean for me. I hired Muna's services to deep clean, and was more than pleased with the job that the team of 4 did. They were very though, I am going to have them back every month to do general cleaning. The only reason I didn't give them a 5 on price was that I don't have pets or children living here, so thought it was a little high. They were all very friendly and courteous ."

"Final product was excellent and was happy with both the garage interior and roofing work quality. Some hiccups with respect to project length and costs but again happy with the end product. Kept us apprised of changes as they occurred and was forthright about costs which we appreciated."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install a backsplash directly onto drywall, provided the wall is properly prepped, clean, and dry. For best results, especially in kitchen areas, your walls should be made of moisture-resistant drywall, often called green board. If your current wall isn't moisture-resistant, it's recommended to replace it before installing the backsplash. For even greater protection against water damage, you can remove the existing drywall and install a tile backer board or cement board instead. While properly installed standard drywall is typically strong enough to support a backsplash, some local building codes may require water-resistant materials in kitchen areas, so it's a good idea to check.

Impact, water infiltration, or shifting subfloors often cause damage. Regular inspections help prevent significant issues.

Grout lines should typically be between 1/8 to 3/16 inch thick. This ensures enough room for the grout to dry properly and makes them wide enough to look clean and professional. If grout lines are too small, it can be easier to see imperfections in the spacing. 

A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.

The number of boxes of tile you need depends entirely on the amount of tile in each box or case. Different manufacturers package their tiles differently, and boxes contain different amounts of tile depending on the size, shape, and material. Often, the amount of area that a case will cover is listed in the product description. To calculate the number of boxes you need, take the total square feet of the space and divide it by the number of square feet the box will cover.
