"They showed up on time was very professional and knew how complete the tasks of installing carpets in both bedrooms and install wood lamanant flooring plus move the furniture and beds to complete the tasks"
"The tile looked great! They were easy to work with & completed the work in a timely manner. I had to spend some time after they left cleaning up & scrubbing something off the vanity, toilet, & bathtub. I m not sure if it was from the grout or caulk. They were the only company I contacted that did everything they said they would do. I would definitely hire them again."
"They did such an amazing job on my bathroom remodel! Everything came out even better than I hoped, and you can really see the care and detail they put into their work. The team was super easy to work with, professional, and made the whole process stress free. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out!"

Saw Re-Bath at the Fall Maryland Home & Garden show and requested a free at home consultation. John Vesperman, who is an owner, came to my home and advised me what they could do for me to fix my problem with my hall bath. I also had him look at my master bath and asked if he could re caulk my tub and walls and install a couple of grab bars plus a new tub spout. He did not pressure me to sign a contract at the time of consultation. He advised me to visit their showroom to see the tub and wall systems in full size to be sure I was getting the color and style wall system and tub I wanted. Only after I was sure I was getting what I wanted did he write the contract. He even gave me a $500 discount for seeing them at the Home Show. After John received the materials he worked with my schedule to do the job, so I did not have to miss any time at my job. John and his father Bill, who is also an owner, came on time and started by laying protective runners in the path to my bathroom not to dirty my carpets and hardwood floor in the entry way. They kept any dust and debris contained not to mess up my home during the demolition of the old tub and tile walls.
Everything went as John said it would. NO SUPRISES. I'm VERY happy with my new hall bath and spruced up master bath. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting bathroom remodeling done. Thanks John & Bill for a great job.

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.
Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.
You can let the tile sit without grout. Don’t panic if there’s a delay between installing the tiles and grouting. A substantial stoppage isn't a problem, provided you keep the tile surface clear of dust and debris. Also, avoid walking over less stable ungrouted floor tiles as they are more prone to premature cracking and shifting.
Yes, it would be best if you waterproofed your shower walls before tiling. The cement backing board behind the tile is not waterproof; it’s only water-resistant. On top of your tile backing board, be sure to use a waterproof shower membrane before you start installing your shower tiles.
