Very professional organization: reliably on site when promised (with several electronic reminders), restored my 21 year old marble floor & counters to like new. They even removed some staining on a mosaic tiled floor the original installer left! I will use them again & highly recommend them!
Sir Grout of Greater BostonVictor did a great job re-grouting, caulking and sealing our marble walk-in shower and bathroom floor. He was very conscientious and moved quickly to complete the job once it was underway. I would recommend him very highly!
Tile TechMy husband and I recently purchased two properties: a home for ourselves and a rental house. Jose was one of the first subcontractors we worked with on our renovation, and were really pleased with the granite options offered through the Angles List deal; normally, you'd expect the leftover,...
OG Surfaces IncPeter and his excellent team of Chris and Chris responded quickly to our now critical situation. They repaired and restored the underlying structural components, replaced the plywood sheathing and finished everything in PVC trim boards.
The remodel was most complicated and involved several moving parts: we wanted to hire the subs (plumbers and shower glass, vanities, etc.) and then Tom Curren did the rest - demo, install shower, new window, drywall, paint, install fixtures, etc. They also provided subs (eg installing river...
Tom Curren CompaniesThey had done a few earlier in the year, and I had them back to check the rest. I've also had them replace a ceiling fan and other light switches. They've always done a good job for me.
Restorers without Borders did a great job restoring my wooden kitchen table. They picked it up and delivered it. Everything was quoted prior to the work being done, and there were no surprises. I had to have the work done by a certain date to have the table back in time for a party, and...

"I wanted a shower expanded. George Mavridis's estimate was very competitive but I hired him because I knew he was honest, quality focused and an open communicator. He has a small crew and excellent subs so he's not super fast. But Mavridis is excellent. One example: The shower needed a new fan, vented through the attic roof. The attic boards were all cut (before my time) in half when insulation was installed. The attic floor was unstable and unsafe. George was very busy but he had his team replace the boards with plywood panels...for 20% less than I expected. Why? Because he wanted to make sure I would be happy when the job was done. I could give 4-5 other examples but you get the point. If you hire George, you'll be pleased."

The organization consist of skilled and ambitious craftsmen dedicated to providing unparalleled customer service and quality workmanship. The organization commits to maintaining professionalism and integrity in every facet of our work to ensure exceptional results and an exceptional experience.
"The initial build went reasonably well. We did find problems which they did come back and fix. I noticed a railing support that was cracked. I was told that I must of done it, that was that. The plugs that cover the screw holes in the stairs are falling out. I looked for some at Home Depot, but couldn't find the right color. I still had Chase's cell #, so I texted him and asked if he could send me some plugs, and I would do it myself. No response. Tried again the next day, still no response. I'm not surprised. Aging the build was decent, price was higher than most. Now that nearly 2 years have gone by, and customer service should be anticipated, nothing. Never again."

"Lester and his team did a great job on our bathroom remodel. He is very detail oriented: the insides of the walls were just as neat and clean as the final finish of the walls, tile, and fixtures. And he was very easy to work with. We hand built a custom cabinet to replace the old bathroom closet. For many contractors, having a homeowner perform part of a remodel could have been difficult for them. Lester took it all in stride and adjusted his workflow to let us do our part. We are very pleased with the final result. We recommend American Bath Works highly and would hire them again in a minute."

All work is performed and supervised by the owner.New Hampshire number 603-881-5052. Mass number is 978-597-2333
"Lou Toppia was just the expert I needed. Not only was I expecting him to refinish my hardwood floors, I was asking him to come in and work miracles to repair the damage done by another contractor who had a damaged machine created wavy distortions to my floors. Lou made them look beautiful again! He was very honest about what he could and could not make perfect and his work always exceeded my expectations. Lou was careful to keep his work area very clean, cleaned up after himself daily and protected my other living areas by sheeting off the rooms he was refinishing. The final finish is so beautiful, with four coats of satin urethane, I think they look better than the factory finish. I would highly recommend Lou to anyone in need of hardwood flooring installation or refinishing."

When it comes to flooring installers, licensing laws vary from state to state. Even if your state doesn’t require your flooring installer to have a license, your municipality or city might, so it’s a good idea to check with your town before getting started. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines.
Hiring an unlicensed flooring installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
There are several countertop options available to fit your lifestyle and needs.
Granite countertops are durable and come in a variety of colors.
Soapstone countertops are prone to scratches and best in smaller kitchens.
Marble countertops are less durable than granite but a good option for busy kitchens.
Slate countertops are stain-resistant, making them easy to clean.
Limestone countertops must be sealed often to prevent scratches.
Acrylic countertops cost less than granite while still providing durability.
Laminate countertops are the most affordable but chip and fade faster.
Wood countertops need monthly sealing to maintain.
The cost to install countertops is $3,105 on average. This project cost can range from $400 to $8,500, depending on the material, edging, and countertop size.
Laminate countertops are generally the most cost-efficient, ranging from $8 to $27 per square foot. On the other hand, slate countertops are considered more luxurious and range from $30 to $90 per square foot. There are also countertop materials priced between those two, including stainless steel, granite, Corian, and wood.
