"While at first glance the work looks good the contractor could use some lessons on detail. Basically, CR is painting the tile with a durable, highly adhesive paint. When painting it is customary to remove from the wall fixtures that can be removed in order to paint "behind" them-- i.e. light fixtures, electrical plates, etc. CR did none of that. They merely taped over the fixtures and went to town. The result is that around all of those fixtures I can still see a thin border with the original blue/pink tile. Worse, we informed them that one of the light fixtures would definitely be replaced with another with a smaller footprint and they still painted around it so now we have a large blue border around that fixture. In addition, CR failed to properly coordinate work with the general contractor resulting in some tiles going unpainted entirely. Some of those unpainted tiles were eventually painted but not all of them. Our experience with the durability of the product is mixed. The work in the hall bathroom has stood up to heavy use. There has been very little chipping and zero peeling. However, in the master bathroom the shower floor began to peel up less than a year after the work was complete. We called CR and it came out to repair. That repair peeled up less than a year later. We called again and CR repaired it again. It peeled up again and we called again. This time I was informed that to properly repair the peeling they would need at least $300 additional dollars. This was quite frustrating given that the shower floor had never lasted more than the one year warranty. Rather than pay for a repair I felt should have been done for in the course of doing good business I made the repair myself. I stripped off all the old paint, scuffed and etched the tile, and then used a contrasting textured concrete paint to refinish the shower floor. I looks much better and thus far has stood up much better than the original work. Overall, the quality of the work could be better as well as customer service. The product seems to be good if applied properly."

We had a yellow cultured marble roman tub, which had a large step (which was dangerous) to enter the tub.  We removed the step, made a wood side panel for the tub, retiled the floor area where the step had been, installed marble around the top of the tub, and then had Miracle Method spray the interior of the tub to make it white.

Bob came to bid the job and provided very complete prices for the different options we were considering.  Very professional and a wealth of information.

Cory was our technician.  He was excellent, fast, on time and meticulous.  He explained everything, and was excellent at protecting the surroundings.  We are so very pleased with the result.  He is a gem!

Thanks to everyone at Miracle Method!

"Sent photos and got a quote for the work.  It was evident in the photo there was a high surround on the two sides and wallpapered walls.  I was assured it was no problem.  
Week 1:  Workman 1 arrived on time (8:30 a.m.) and was quite pleasant.  He assured me the wallpaper would not be a problem, there would be no paint on it, he would paint right to the edge of the sink and all would be protected.  He began on sanding old finish off the sink.  I checked in a couple of times that morning and saw that the surround had not been sanded except in a couple of small places.  During the afternoon, another workman, showed up and did not introduce himself, was in and out a couple of times.  Prior to painting, workman 1 showed me regular masking tape and that it might tear the wallpaper.  I gave him my roll of blue painters tape and was surprised they didn't use a type that would not tear the wallpaper.
The work was completed that afternoon and I was told not to use the sink for 48 hours.  On the third day, I went in to inspect the result.  It looked fine but there was a small line of paint on the wall paper across the front top of the surround.  Then I ran my hand over the surface of the sink and it was rough, like it had been sprinkled with grit before or during the painting process.  Not just on part of the sink but around the bowl, in the bowl, on the surround, everywhere.  I have had a tub and two sinks refinished (not by this company) and the surfaces came out smooth and perfect.  This job was not even close.  I called owner to complain and was told a little bit of grit might have fallen on it while painting and was assured all would be repaired to my satisfaction.  I also asked why was I not warned of a second workman coming and why didn't he introduce himself as he was in my home?  I found that to not be professional behavior at all.
Week 2:  Workman 1 came back, sanded for a while and then said he was ready to leave.  I asked about the repainting and he said he had to do more sanding than expected and any painting hadn't been scheduled.  I asked when it could be done and we set a date and he left.
No call from the owner.  
Week 3:  Waited a week and workman 3 showed up.  He was very cordial, set to work, sanded and painted.  I looked it over and it looked good.  I waited 48 hours and went to check on the sink.  Better than first time on the flat surface around the bowl.  Then I checked the bowl and it was rough.  i checked the surround and it was rough.  I checked on the bottom and side facings and it was rough.   Basically, it was a crap job but I was stuck with it.  I am very unhappy with the service provided by this company and I would not recommend them to anyone!
No call from owner regarding quality of work but a message to pay the bill.
You might wonder why I didn't use the same company that did the tub and two sinks and I would have but that company no longer exists.  I went to Angie's List to get a reputable company to do the work and didn't find it there.

"We signed contract on 4/15/2013 and were told by salesman that jobs were approximately 4 to 6 weeks out.  The night we signed the contract, ask for a floor sample to be sent to me so I could pick out counter top and paint.  The salesman also said that this product would never mold or mildew, especially the joints, because their product was formulated for heavy moisture areas. (Later found out that is NOT true, from another customer.  Salesman also stated that we wouldn't probably hear anything for a couple of weeks, then we would get a phone call to set everything up.
By May 15, I had repeated tried to contact salesman, via phone and email as to why no one had contacted me to set up install and why flooring sample was not sent.  Salesman never returned any phone calls and then only via email did I receive any response.  Each time with an excuse as to why nothing was happening.  FINALLY received flooring sample (a index card size on June 3rd), followed by a phone call on June 5th, from someone at the Rebath office asking if they could come do the tear out on June 7th, with drywall repair on the 8th and install on the 10th and 11th.  I stated it was a little short notice and was told if I didn't take that date then it would possible be another 3 to 4 weeks out.  So wanting to get the bath done--since they had half of my money (3,600.00), I along with my husband agreed.
When I arrived home on the 7th, from work, which was around 2:30.  It was a fairly hot day---the front door to my home was standing open.  No one was going in or out and the tear out guy was in bathroom, with very little work done.  Because of the soffit work--we ask him to save the insulation so it could be placed back into attic, he did so.  Tear out man was in home till late in the evening--not something you want to happen due to most people have to work the next day.  He kept leaving front door open, all the while the air conditioner was running to keep up!  It was our understanding that all the old dry wall would be tore out, but that gentleman said that because it was not spelled out on contract that he couldn't do it and if we wanted him too, that would be a work change order, which would cost us more.  (ONCE AGAIN--was told something different from salesman, and this was not our first construction project!).  He also left a mess on the floor from the removal of the old tile--my husband had to get the shop vac out to get up the debrie!
The drywaller's arrived on the 8th--there was texture on the old drywall.  We asked installers if they were going to match the new drywall with the old by putting on texture, since all tear out was not done.  They said no, but could do it for a $100 more money.  We didn't agree to it because I refused to be nickeled and dimed!  They finished their work quickly, putting on the first coat of mud over taping and stated they would be back on Tuesday (Jun 11th) to sand and put second skim coat on joints.
Installer showed up on Monday, June 10th on time.  YEA!  He was friendly, respectfully of our house and very efficient!  However the tub that my husband and I ordered and thought we would receive--was the wrong size.  A new one was brought out at Rebath's expense.  (Later found out the salesman had wrote down the wrong size!)  The installer was there late into the night on Monday and cleaned up very well when his part was finished.
The drywaller's didn't arrive the next day.  I call Rebath by 4:00pm to find out what happened and they were surprised that they didn't show up and I was asked why I didn't call before 4:00 to see where they were!  How is that suppose to be on the customer.  After a couple of more phone calls between myself and the very nice lady that answers the phone at Rebath, it was arranged that they would come out later that week.
My husband also had to make repeated phone calls to have Rebath to come back out and finish the job.  Because they promise by them was to put your bathroom back and in better shape!.  By Friday of that week--Rebath sent a gentleman out to finish the job--put the door back onto the bathroom and cut it down to fit since the new floor made the toekick stick up too much and the door wouldn't shut.  They also needed to put the baseboards back onto the wall and connect the plumbing up at the sink. 
A two day turn around that is promised by Rebath in their advertisements, turned out to be a week long job--only to be finished and done right after much inspection and phone calls!!!!!!
After a total of 7,200.00 spent, I can only hope their product holds up like they promised!  Leary due to the fact that their promises haven't meant nothing yet!

"Our overall experience with GCS has been very good, the owner (Dennis) has done whatever it takes to make us happy with this project, We must give kudos to the tile setter Doug, he started early and stayed late, he even worked on Saturday and Sunday so that we could have our bathroom done ASAP, and the job Doug did was incredible, our shower and floors look so amazing. The only negative was some of the workers didn't quite understand the meaning of doing a job right the first time, and was more concern about going on to the next job, it was mostly little things, but they were still important to us, but Dennis came over and fixed or will have it fixed, so I'm not going to dwell on that. My wife and I are very please with the overall quality of our new bathroom and the work that GCS performed, in fact we've already hired GCS for our next project, to install new floors and do other repairs/upgrades around our home.

"All good.  Added window locks on upper floors (sash windows, young kids) and repaired/replaced some original locks in doors to make them work properly.
We've used them for all kinds of things over the last 3 years - pretty much do whatever we've needed done.
