"Erin did an amazing job on building a custom deck, framing and installing french doors and finishing all drywall and necessary trim. I get comments on the work constantly. He was professional, friendly, open to suggestions, worked in a clean, timely manner and as if he was working on his own home. I can't wait to call and hire him for my next job."

"A American Cleaning Bob's Rob Cartwright responded promptly to our call and arrived quickly to give us an estimate. The company's main focus is on carpet and upholstery cleaning, but they also do re-installation. The estimate, which included quality padding, and cleaning after installation, was reasonable and we were impressed with Rob's professionalism. That's understandable in retrospect, as he has been with the company since 1991 and holds a “Master Textile Cleaner” Certification, according to the company's website. He arrived on time for the installation, completed the re-installation efficiently, and left the carpet looking cleaner than it ever had. We were very pleased. We will certainly hire A American Cleaning Bobs the next time we need carpet work done."

"Well. 1st plumber who looked at the system said shower valves needed to be replaced but that was a problem because there are no access panels. Chaub plummer advised valves were good quality and there was no need to replace. He replaced/installed new hardware and did a great job in a timely manner."

"We wanted our old fiberglass shower stall in our master bathroom replaced with new tiles on the shower floor and shower walls. Ethan did an excellent job and we're more than happy with the result. He was always punctual and courteous. He kept the work area neat and organized and very respectful of the other areas of our home. The work was done on time as scheduled and within the estimated budget. It was great working with him and I highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for a hard-working professional who does an excellent job."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Installing kitchen countertop tiles on a mold and moisture-resistant cement backer board is one of the best options. When fitted correctly on top of a plywood base, it’s stable and long-lasting. Old-fashioned cement board is economical, cuts neatly and easily with a circular or jigsaw, and screws into plywood without any difficulty.

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.

Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.

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

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.
