"Pyramid was recommended to us by a friend who has done a lot of remodeling and has priced granite in many locations in the area. She was right--after shopping around for a granite or quartz countertop for our guest bathroom remodel, Pyramid Granite had the best selection AND best price. We were looking for something that would coordinate with existing tile in the bathroom and it was easy to find several choices at Pyramid. They were very professional, helped us make a decision, came out to measure and delivered the product ON TIME. We ultimately settled on granite and our countertop is gorgeous--we will definitely be coming back when we remodel our primary bathroom! Ask for Temon--he is great!"

"William did a marvelous job installing a new tile floor on our screen porch. He was meticulous to detail and also installed a new screen door. He left the area in impeccable shape. We definitely will use his services again."

"So this takes a tiny bit of telling but it's worth it. Mr. Handyman came in to install a backsplash and the original job fell below our expectations. When I bought my concerns to Dan - who I believe runs the show - he drove out to see for himself and offered a complete redo of the job at no cost to us. The incredible contractor who came over to fix things had to spend about 5X the time of the original installation to fix everything, which included reinstalling drywall before doing the actual backsplash. Not only was the new job absolutely perfect, but he went above and beyond in every possible way on our behalf. While this could have had a different outcome, I can say without qualification that Mr. Handyman earned my loyalty for as long as I live in this area. I highly recommend them."

"I bought a home built before 1978 and found that there was some asbestos floor tile in the basement. I reached out to D&H Demolition and they immediately came out to take a look at the project and provided a free estimate. They were very helpful and answered all my questions which made me feel a lot safer about the situation. I hired them and they took care of the work the very next day! Overall I was very pleased with their price and quality of work. Highly recommend!"

"I would highly recommend L&T contractors. They installed vinyl plank flooring in my basement. Also, they constructed a new deck. The workers are very personable and dependable. They were always on time."

"The work was generally satisfactory. The toilet was successfully installed (it is stable and there are no leaks), the installation of the new vanity/sink/faucets were also well done. To install the mirrored medicine cabinet, the workers overcame a significant challenge accommodating a design flaw in the cabinet that emerged during installation (although the cabinet was supposed to be capable of both surface and recessed mounting, it's design wouldn't allow the door to open if it was recessed) -- the contractor devised and implemented a solution on the spot. The contractor also successfully modified the light switch installation so that it was attractive cosmetically by doing some minor carpentry. The contractor also installed the two ceiling lights and provided and replaced a defective wall switch (thereby addressing a problem we had feared would require more specialized electrical work). A couple of minor issues with the final results might have been avoided and the Owner, Omar, was away on family matters and the chief manager (who had done a terrific job on a previous window installation) said he couldn't provide an initial firm fixed estimate, so we agreed they would track their work hours instead. This caused some consternation at the end regarding final price. However, when Omar returned, he offered an adjusted price which we agreed to. The lesson was, for this contractor, to obtain an estimate for work planned (as we had done on a previous job they performed) and no issues would arise. Omar provides quality work at reasonable prices and is very responsive. It was primarily his unavoidable absence at the outset that caused the less than straight A ratings we've provided. We would hire his team again and his lead supervisor is also a skilled and ingenious problem solver for this work as well."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

While you shouldn’t use thinset mortar on its own as a floor leveler, it can work alongside other products to help level floors. For instance, you could start with a self-leveling compound, let that dry, then apply backer board with thinset mortar to help fully even out the floors ahead of laying tile.

You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.

Tiles last for around 100 years or more. Tiles on backsplashes can last even longer since they’re less likely to crack under foot traffic or from accidental drops, but even tile in high-traffic flooring can last a century or more with proper installation and upkeep. Porcelain tiles are denser and stronger than standard ceramic tiles, so they’ll last longer, often pushing past the 100-year mark.

Yes, you can install a backsplash directly onto drywall, provided the wall is properly prepped, clean, and dry. For best results, especially in kitchen areas, your walls should be made of moisture-resistant drywall, often called green board. If your current wall isn't moisture-resistant, it's recommended to replace it before installing the backsplash. For even greater protection against water damage, you can remove the existing drywall and install a tile backer board or cement board instead. While properly installed standard drywall is typically strong enough to support a backsplash, some local building codes may require water-resistant materials in kitchen areas, so it's a good idea to check.

In some cases, granite tiles can be installed over existing flooring if the surface is level, stable, and free of moisture issues. However, removing old flooring is often recommended to ensure a secure and long-lasting installation, as well as to avoid height differences at thresholds. Consult with your flooring pro to determine the best approach based on your specific situation.
