"Jon did an excellent job installing our tile shower. His price was reasonable, he showed up when he said he would and finished the job in the time frame he quoted. I highly recommend Jon!"
Honest and skilled. 7 years experience in tile and flooring. I'm an Ironworker. Worked on large commercial projects(high rises, bridges, midrise). I come with variety of certificates (welding,first-aid,signalling,rigging). Lots of classroom hours and training that cross relates into pretty much anything.I currently had to step away from ironwork due to large changes in my personal life. Im capable and willing to do any job big or small.
"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."
"Very well! We are so happy with the finished bathrooms. Bryce did our work and he got things done quickly. Reeds also had the best rate from three bids we compared."
"We had a tub to walk in shower conversion. Our experience with Apple Plumbing/Bath Planet was great. The estimator - Jon, was professional and knowledgeable. He listened to our needs and gave good advice. He allowed us time to consider and was available for questions. The owner, Bob, also came by after the contract was signed to check over the project and gave good advice. Because this was a health need, the company graciously worked to get the project done quickly. The contract was signed on 8/14 and the conversion was done on 9/4-9/5. The installer, Clay, and the plumber, Jake, arrived promptly at 8 a.m. on the start date and were efficient, considerate of cleanliness and very competent. They worked hard to meet all our needs and to get the project done quickly and professionally. Their work is not cheap, but you definitely get what you paid for. We are confident that the follow-up and willingness to satisfy will continue if we have any questions or concerns. We would also mention that the office staff were also very friendly and helpful. We would happily recommend this business to our friends."
"Michael and his team did great job on me and my husbands kitchen. They communicated with us throughout the whole process, and were clean and friendly while they were in our home. I definitely would reccomend Superior Stone to anyone looking for new countertops."
"Was very happy with the work that was done. Very professional and done in a timely manner, and did what he said he was gonna do. Great craftsmanship. Thanks again"
Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.
DIY is possible for small projects. Professional services ensure precision and long-lasting results.
Yes, you can tile over existing shower tiles, but it's better to remove the old tiles first for the best results. Tiling over existing tiles requires a clean, level surface and proper adhesion. If the old tiles are in good condition, you can roughen the surface to improve adhesion. However, removing the old tiles ensures a smoother, longer-lasting finish and prevents potential issues down the line.
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.
Yes, construction materials like tile, lumber, drywall, and hardware can be disposed of in a dumpster, just not in your regular garbage. As you’re planning your project, just make sure to rent the correct size of dumpster based on the scope of your needs and be aware of weight limits. Tile weighs a lot (along with other construction materials), and your costs could increase if you exceed the weight limit in your contract with the dumpster provider.
