"Our 30 year old porcelain tub and tile surround were showing their age, with small leaks in the grout and caulking that kept recurring and requiring attention.  It is a bathroom used by teens so we wanted something easy to clean and maintain.  From the first phone call, Porcelite was an easy company to deal with.   The owner, Mr Wachter, came out and provided an estimate for installing a liner over the tub and wall surround.  He came back a second time to address concerns I had about the drywall behind the tile surround.  He provided an estimate, including removing some tile and replacing some drywall behind it just to be on the safe side.  We scheduled the work.  The Porcelite guy showed up as scheduled, installed the liner in about 7 hours, and we could use it the next day.  It looks great, very bright white, and is much easier to maintain than the old tile was.  It was a straightforward job from start to finish.

"The entire process went very well. I called Rodney at 9am and he was able to show up at the home just before 10:30am to do an estimate. His pricing was reasonable and they were able to haul everything away same day. It was efficient and smooth. Would definitely recommend and use them for future needs."

"I am a senior with a background in construction.  After reviewing many contractors and speaking with some of them, I immediately knew I hit the jackpot when I spoke to Danny.
 
1.  He knew exactly what I needed and wanted done when I first spoke to him.  This entailed the replacement, repair, and installation of the items listed above with attention to quality in materials, prevention of future problems, a fair price, and a commitment to starting and showing up once the job was initiated.  Danny exceeded every expectation in these regards!
2.  I silently knew in advance manufacturers, quality and cost of exterior doors (including the french door), storm doors, door locks and deadbolts, leak-proof door sills for 6 inch exterior walls and a leak-proof barrier on the bottom of the door frames.  Without knowing of my preferences, Danny suggested the identical manufacturers and materials I had in mind.  At this juncture, we met and I hired Danny to perform the work.
3.  I am beyond pleased with the outcome of Danny's effort on this project.  As an example of his integrity, he asked me to trust him in the design and installation of an exterior octagonal window in a bathroom.  My wife and I were literally blown away with a handcrafted symmetrical waterproof tunnel and inside wall frame he created - more akin to an artistic piece than a window.
4. Inside work was always minimally invasive using tarps and soft shoes rather than work boots.  Outside and inside cleanup at the end of each work day was respectfully performed leaving no mess.
I would recommend Danny to anyone requiring any kind of interior or exterior installation, modification, or repair as I have seen firsthand examples of his experience, skills, and personal and business ethics.  In fact, Danny is presently working on costs to replace our roof."

"First, the painters moved all of the furniture my wife and I couldn't move, removed the venetian blinds, and covered the carpets, kitchen cabinets, and counter tops with canvas or plastic sheeting.
The painters then spackled, sanded, and caulked  all of the nick, cracks, nail pops, and dings in the walls and ceiling. They also caulked all cracks between the baseboards and the walls, and between the crown molding, walls and ceiling. The ceiling was then painted with two coats of ceiling white, the walls with two coats of satin wall paint, and the trim with two coats of semi gloss white. The painters were prompt, pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. Each day before the left, the painters cleaned  the areas that they were painting so my wife and I could use the kitchen and family rooms. The finished work was beautiful.
My wife and I have used Timothy's Home Improvements in the past and I am sure we will use them again.  We are very pleased with their work. I highly recommend Timothy's Home Improvements, to anyone who needs a quality and trustworthy contractor.

"Earl and Robert went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction, not only making my back porch safe but attractive as well. My porch was a mess. The wood was rotted in some places, the paint was chipped and it was a real eyesore and hazard. They arrived on the day promised and got to work as expected. The communication was good and any issues that came up were addressed immediately. I never felt left out of the process and Earl even went over the color palate with me and suggested ones based on the color of my house. To my surprise, he added some design elements that made the porch even more attractive than I expected, yet didn't dent my wallet. Truly, a consummate professional, Earl and Robert made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend them again and again.

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Popcorn ceilings can be relatively easy to keep clean with regular maintenance. Avoid exposing it to smoke if possible—popcorn ceilings tend to collect stains from smoke, including those from cigarettes or cooking. With proper care, you can clean your popcorn ceiling anywhere from every six months to a year—or as needed.

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity for several reasons, though opinions on them can vary. The primary drawbacks include an outdated appearance, difficulty with cleaning and maintenance, and potential health risks, as ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos. As design trends have shifted toward sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now prefer smooth ceilings for their clean look and easier upkeep. However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as excellent acoustic properties for noise reduction and the ability to hide imperfections. Some also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective solution. Ultimately, whether they are "bad" depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and aesthetic goals.

No, not all popcorn ceilings have asbestos, but a vast majority do. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned its use in 1973, although it still may have been used up through the early ‘90s. But, in general, homes built or remodeled before the early ‘80s likely utilized materials with asbestos. That being said, a professional test is the only way to determine for sure.

Priming a popcorn ceiling before painting is a good idea, especially if the ceiling is stained, discolored, or has never been painted. Interior paint primer helps seal the surface, preventing stains from bleeding through and allowing the paint to adhere better. Use a stain-blocking, water-based primer for best results.

On average, repairing a ceiling costs anywhere from $450 to $1,750. However, there are many variables that can impact the price of this project. For example, the type of ceiling material, type and extent of the damage, and local labor rates all affect your costs. Holes and cracks are less expensive to fix, while structural issues and water damage are pricier problems.
