I tackled the kitchen first.
My budget was somewhat limited, so I went to Home Depot to pick out cabinets that would suit my tastes without breaking the bank. The selection of cabinet styles and finishes was diverse enough that I was able to find something that I liked within my budget, and the personnel present at the time were helpful. I had wanted to use corian for my new countertops, but Home Depot said that they had no one available to install corian. As an alternative, I selected Silestone. Home Depot had a limited number of colors available in Silestone - there are many more options available. I selected a fairly standard sink and a new stove since the existing oven in my home was undersized. The salesperson who was assisting me worked hard to find multiple sales and discount offers that could apply to my purchases.
The problems with using Home Depot became apparent during the tear out and installation process. The people that they contracted with to do the installation, though they were very courteous, did not work well with the personnel at Home Depot nor did the personnel at Home Depot work well with their contractors. I'm not sure where the lines of communication broke down. Either measurements were not made properly for the cabinets or spacer bars were not planned for correctly. Regardless, installation of cabinet units would be delayed for days because the installers would have to wait for additional matching spacers to be ordered. Spacers are not terribly expensive, should just be ordered in excess, and then the extras returned rather than having a kitchen in disorder for longer periods of time to save a few bucks.
Another example of poor communication between Home Depot and its contractors - the existing flooring in my kitchen is slate tile that had been put down after the old cabinets were built in place years and years ago, so it is about 2 inches higher than the original floor. It had been made clear that the floor under the new cabinets would need to be built up with a couple of layers of ply wood before cabinet installation. The contractors started to install the new cabinets without building up the floor first. I had to argue with them, get them to call Home Depot, and then pull out the new cabinets (only one unit fortunately), and do what they were supposed to do. Had things been communicated properly in the first place, I would not have had to argue with them.
They did build up the floor properly. They did set the cabinets properly. The pulls were all hung beautifully (I bought those on line). I had to make them come back to redo some of the toe kicks - they thought they were done, but in reality, the staple gun had run out part way through.
A little electrical work had to be done to make the outlets in the kitchen up to code and to add a little under-cabinet lighting. The electrician that was brought in ran the wiring well enough, but he managed to gouge a hole through my kitchen wall that went all the wall through into the other room. No, it did not get fixed. I have something hanging in a strategic place to hide the crudely patched hole in the other room.
One thing that many people do not anticipate is the long wait between the cabinets all being set in place and the countertop being installed. They have to do the final measurement for the countertop after the cabinets are finally in place. The people who installed the countertop for Home Depot operate out of Shreveport. They did a good job with the installation and told me what they were doing throughout the entire process.
The cabinets, in the end, were set in place properly, but Home Depot does not provide finish work. Any gaps left between your cabinets and ceiling or walls because the cabinets are of a slightly different size or configuration than your previous cabinets are left for you to deal with. They also do not have anyone come to your home to make sure that the work was done correctly.
Home Depot does not include the electrical work in the estimate that they provide. You pay extra for that. Even though your dishwasher is pulled out when the old cabinets are removed, you are held responsible for the cost of hooking it back up. And you also have to pay a plumber to install the sink and faucet fixtures. I also had to pay the plumber to hook up the gas line to the new gas stove. Home Depot is not very good at informing you of these additional expenses. I'm sure it is all somewhere in the fine print of the contract that you sign."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/la/monroe/home-depot-inc-reviews-5679711.htm"},"position":10}]}
Epoxy Flooring Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in Wisner, LA
We bought some ceramic tile back in the summer of 2015 and had it installed in our house. They did a very good job on the install and started and ended about the time they said they would. We have had multiple compliments on our flooring. Would definitely use again.

I have an old house (built int he 1940s) with oak hardwood floors and they looked awful. Mario came by, did some quick measurements, and wrote me out an estimate that was a little lower than others I had seen. He and Josh started work on Monday and finished on Saturday morning. They sanded...

The movers were late, refused to work in the rain, and then left an ice maker fitting loose which damaged our wooden floors.

FAQs for epoxy flooring service projects in Wisner, LA
The cost of an epoxy floor is $2,430 on average, ranging from $730 to $5,300. Factors that impact the overall cost include the total square footage, the type of epoxy, and any decorative options.
The epoxy flooring cost in a one-car garage is $720 to $2,900. However, that cost jumps to $1,100 to $4,300 for a two-car garage, which is 360 square feet on average. Adding decorative flakes to your flooring costs roughly $10 per 250-pound bag, but if you want metallic epoxy, that’ll cost you between $5 and $12per square foot.
An epoxy floor can last between 10 and 20 years, depending on the material and its frequency of use. Factors like heavy foot traffic, sunlight exposure, and the weight of vehicles on it impact the overall longevity.
To ensure your floor lasts as long as possible, clean it often, as debris buildup can scratch the epoxy. Remember never to use any kind of rough pads, only a soft mop, to avoid scratches as well. In addition, if your epoxy coating needs repair, it’s best to repair it as quickly as possible to avoid more significant damage.
Since epoxy products are hazardous to handle, it’s best to leave this job to a professional epoxy flooring contractor. These flooring professionals will have the appropriate protective gear to stay safe during the application process and will use the correct tools needed for the job. In addition, if not correctly applied, the epoxy won’t harden correctly, causing performance issues. Hire a professional epoxy flooring contractor to guarantee a smooth, even finish for your flooring.
Spills like water, oil, or grease can wear down the epoxy's strength, lowering its lifespan. While this damage doesn’t happen immediately, it can accumulate over time, so cleaning up any garage spills as soon as they happen is essential. Avoid cleaning with or using dish soap on your epoxy floors since they will leave an unattractive residue. Instead, you can use half of a cup of ammonia diluted with a gallon of water for cleaning purposes.
Flooring professionals can typically apply epoxy within one or two days, depending on how much preparation or repair the old floor needs before application. However, you’ll need to wait after the application is complete to use the flooring. While you can walk on the epoxy flooring before it fully cures, it can take up to 72 hours for the epoxy floor to fully dry and be ready for full use.
