"We wanted to extend our laminate flooring throughout our first floor. JRH worked quickly, got our old carpet removed, and installed the laminate, meshing into the existing laminate perfectly."
"I have hired Steve Ellis twice. Once was two years ago and the other was just this week. Both times he tore out floor tile that was installed incorrectly and then installed new floor tile. The first time was in the laundry room. Ditra mat was originally under the tile and was not thinset to the floor. So the tile was moving and grout was coming out where the traffic areas were. Tile came up in whole pieces. The second time Steve came he tore up the existing tile in the pantry, spare bath and master bath. All of which was incorrectly installed by someone else. Steve and Jeff installed new tile with backer board underneath. They did an excellent job! It looks beautiful! Very professionally done. I know, now, that my tile will NOT move because it is installed correctly. I would not use anyone else to do any work that I need done. The pricing is fair, the resulting work is excellent and they were on time each day and completed the job when they said they would. I couldn't have asked for a better job from Steve and Jeff. I have had very bad experiences with OTHER contractors in the past 40+ years. So I know a good/excellent job when I experience it."

"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 good experience! Everyone is very nice and punctual. I was given a bid a year ago and was finally able to have the work done. Then kitchen tune up came in this year they were able to match last years estimate. Delivery time frames were very accurate and reasonable. The kitchen was useable everyday during the remodel. I had a cabinet that needed a new bottom, due to having been cut out by a previous owner to accommodate a taller fridge and never had been repaired. The cabinet was rebuilt and works and looks great. I also wanted access to a lazy Susan from the dining side of the kitchen, which was installed beautifully. My back splash isfantastic! I had decided on a tile mosaic, which took some great talent to cut and install. It turned out beautiful."
"Victor did exactly what was agreed upon. We had a problem with the bullnose tile not entirely covering wherte the vinyl coving was. He was knowledgeable how to solve it be cutting tile to cover and installing a metal piece on top. It made his time to get the job completed take quite a bit lpng"
Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
Glazed ceramic tiles don’t need to be sealed because the glazing already offers some protection against moisture. Unglazed ceramic tiles need to be sealed to keep the porous tile safe from moisture and staining. However, both types of tile can benefit from sealing. Sealant can make the tiles easier to keep clean and offer more resistance to water, spills, and stains.
Like any painted surface, tile paint can peel and chip over time. However, tile paint can become especially susceptible to peeling during periods of high humidity. Other sources of excess moisture will also cause tile paint to peel faster than normal. And if the tiles are in a high-traffic area, like the entryway floor, tile paint will chip and peel faster.
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.
How long painted tiles last ultimately comes down to the quality of the paint job and how much wear and tear the tiles get. It’s possible the paint job will only last about six months if the tiles are in a high-traffic area and they weren’t properly cleaned, sanded, and primed prior to painting and sealing. Well-painted tiles in a low-traffic area should last at least a year.
Tile—specifically smaller, mosaic-style tiles—is the best type of flooring for building a walk-in shower base. Shower pans come with a threshold and sidewalls to contain the water, but tile can be set into the shower base. This creates a walk-in shower floor that gently slopes toward the drain to keep water from getting out and into the rest of the bathroom.
