"Ronal and his assistant did a great job. They were punctual, communicative, and did a beautiful job repairing our kitchen wall and installing a tile backsplash with hexagonal tiles, and leaving the area sparkling clean. Would definitely recommend."

"James from JZ Construction LLC was phenomenal. Not only was he transparent in his quote pricing, he moved some things around to make sure the job got done on our schedule. The tile work was beautiful and well done. The rebuild took a day less than we had planned. He even helped connect us with an electrician and repaired the cuts in the drywall done by the electrician. He and his team were amazingly nice. James went above and beyond. Will hire again for future jobs!"

"We hired Kitchen Savers to help remodel our kitchen. After a few delays due to COVID-19, work got under way June 1st. Hasan the installer was awesome. He spent 5 days in a row with us doing demolition, resurfacing the cabinets, installing the new oven/microwave, crown molding, etc. Kitchen Savers was very professional and nicely orchestrated their subcontractors (Rock Tops for the countertops, electrician for the under cabinet lighting, plumber to install the sink and garbage disposal, etc.). We are very pleased with the workmanship and the final outcome. Even when we had an issue with one of the cabinet doors a few weeks later, Kitchen Savers sent out a workman to rehang the door with a double hinge and solved the issue free of charge. The only negative comment is that while Kitchen Savers works with subcontractors for certain things (i.e. countertops, etc.), that is where things end. So you have new cabinets and new countertops, but no backsplash. That's kind of crazy. If you want a backsplash or wall tile between the countertops and cabinets, you are on your own to fine another contractor. Likewise for flooring. This caused some issues as our floor contractor wanted to demo the floor before the cabinet work was done and we had to do a bit of juggling. It would have been nice to have one main contractor who organized and scheduled all the subs."

"Zeke and Jordan did an excellent job removing our old tub with tile surround, and installing a new shower with acrylic wall panels and sliding doors. They were courteous, efficient, and professional during the entire installation process. Very happy with the end result! I would definitely recommend West Shore Home to my friends and neighbors."

"Zavala was hired primarily for floor tile replacement; but job evolved into a bathroom refresh/renovation. Floor tiling was geometric and not an easy lay. From day one to completion of the project, Mr. Zavala demonstrated a “spirit of excellence” in performing every facet of the project with attention to details; integrity, which is a rare commodity in the contractor industry and a genuine desire to insure project met both mine and his high expectations. Appreciated meticulous daily clean up until project completion. Zavala Construction (Wulian) now rests at the top of the list for my TWO preferred “go to” contractors."

"I had compiled a list of projects we were considering having done to improve our home which was built in 1986.  After doing a great deal of research, we decided on Perryhall Remodeling, based on the number of positive reviews reported on Angie's List.  I contacted the Company by phone and explained a little bit about what improvements we were looking to have done to our 28 year old home and asked that the owner return the call.  I received a call back from Gary Howard, Sr., the owner of the company, within 24 hours and we arranged a meeting at our home two days later.  Gary Howard, Sr. and his brother Tim Howard arrived on time and we got down to business.  Gary, Sr and Tim were very friendly and professional as we discussed the work we were considering.  Gary and I walked through the inside and outside of the house as I explained what we needed.  Gary was very attentive, and took notes and asked questions and made professional suggestions as we walked.  The most urgent projects included replacing 3 skylights which had been leaking for sometime and repair to the surrounding drywall, which had been severely damaged.  We needed two new patio doors along with the restoration of two decks, plus power washing of the entire house.  I wanted floor tile installed in the  powder room and master bath.  I also wanted the gutters in the front and back of the house cleaned out and gutter guards installed throughout.  I needed something done with the downspout next to the porch that was allowing water to damage the side of the porch, plus the replacement of 3 ceiling fans, the weatherproofing of the front door and the shaving of the bottom of an interior door that was scraping the floor plus replacing the door bell ringer. 
We agreed on a price, and I signed off on a written contract. 
Gary, Sr. was worried about the weather and wanted to get started on the outside work as soon as possible. I, of course, agreed and the skylight project started within a week.  Gary, Tim and the work crew arrived bright and early on the agreed upon date to install the skylights and service the roof.   Gary had upgraded the skylights he purchased for us without additional charge.   He was very concerned that we never experience the water leakage we had experienced with the old skylights.
(I found a repeat of this kind of thoughtfulness throughout our working relationship.  Just a few examples would include the following:  When two pieces of damaged siding previously hidden behind the old deck boards, was now revealed, Gary, Sr. replaced the siding with undamaged pieces of siding we had saved, at no charge.  He had his team install three ceiling fans for us at no charge.  He purchased and installed a door bell ringer at no charge and Gary, Jr. replaced our flood lights for us at no charge). 
Now back to the skylight project:  The 3 Skylights were installed without a problem and they looked amazing from the street and from inside the house.  No more leaks!!!   At the same time that the Skylight were being installed, Gary and his son, Gary, Jr., walked the entire roof and found there were some imperfections in the previous re-construction of the chimney.  They recommended a reconstruct upgrade to the chimney with new plywood and aluminum.  I agreed to the improvements, because we had problems in the past with water leakage from that chimney.  Since this remodel of the chimney, I have not had any further problems with water leakage.
Gary, Jr. also worked on the redirecting of the downspout away from the front porch. This downspout was directing rain water too close to the house which resulted in an incredible amount of damage to the side of the front porch.  To fix the problem, Gary, Jr. cut off the downspout just directly about the porch roof gutter, resulting in a direct feed into this gutter which eliminated direct water damage to the side of the porch.  (How simple a fix and how Genius!! - Thanks Gary, Sr. for the solution)   The damaged cement was cleaned up and new cement was pored to protect the side porch in the future.  
The next major outside project was the restoration of two (2) decks.  My husband and I had not taken the best of care of the original decks, and this resulted in a lot of damage to the wood. Gary, Sr. recommended that we forgo the power washing of these decks because of the poor condition of the deck boards.  Instead the deck boards would  be replaced with pressure treated decking and the railing be replaced with white vinyl railings.  He told us that the decks foundations appeared to be undamaged and did not need to be replaced.
A four man crew got to work with the demolition and rebuild of the two decks.  The finished decks are beautiful!  The workmanship is impressive!  I get compliments on these decks all the time.           
  Kudos to the Team!  Thank you Mike, Josh, Bill and Gary, Jr. 

Next on the project check off list was the repair to all drywall that was damaged by the water leakage from the 3 old skylights. The walls that were water damaged included the front entry foyer walls and ceiling, the 3 skylight wells including the master bathroom ceiling, front hallway ceiling and additional patching throughout.  Followed by 2 coats of paint.  Again, an excellent job!!
During this same time the entire house was power washed and the gutters and downspouts were cleaned out, in preparation for gutter guards to be installed. 
Once the gutters were cleaned, Gary Howard, Sr. and his brother Tim Howard arrived a few days later to personally install the gutter guards.  A few more leaves had to be removed from the gutters first.  Gary recommended that the gutters at the top of the house, front and back should have new white aluminum flashing installed under the roof into gutters along with new spikes in the back and front of the house before the guards were installed.  The lower gutters did not need the flashing and new spikes.  I agreed to the improvement and he did the work.  After the flashing and spikes were installed, gutter guards were installed throughout.  (Another job well done!)
(I just wanted to mention that Gary, Sr. has excellent communication skills.  He stops over at least a few times a week to touch base and review the project in progress.  He has kept us updated as to the timetable of our projects so we know what to expect.  We have appreciated this communication.)
Next up was the renovation of the Powder Room.  I had originally thought that I would like to have floor tile installed,  although I was worried about the condition of the floor.  It seemed very soft and uneven and I was worried about the tile breaking later.  Gary, Sr. and I discussed the situation and he agreed that the floor should be stabilized before the tile was installed. I decided I would also like to have the existing wallpaper removed, the walls repaired and painted and  the vanity sink and toilet replaced.  I refinished the old vanity myself and it turned out great.  Our contract was updated and the work began.  Once the sub-floor was upgraded, the floor was as solid as a rock. The "A" team worked on this project and did an another amazing job!  We love it!!
Next we're moving right along with the repair and replacement of damaged drywall in the kitchen/family room walls and ceilings plus patchwork throughout the rooms as needed.  Followed by 2 coats of paint.  We had qu"

"Joe Barone and his team of workmen did an outstanding job on my bathroom remodel. The old bathroom was an eyesore from top to bottom; from the dilapidated tub and surrounding material, to the pink tile and broken medicine cabinet. I now have a beautiful tile shower, new sink, counter top, light fixtures, vanity, toilet, window, door and floor. Joe kept me informed throughout the remodel and his team (especially Henry!) worked hard every day and finished up ahead of schedule. I highly recommend Qualified Remodelers!"

"After interviewing several companies to have our kitchen remodelled, we selected VKB, and we are happy we did. VKB provided a lower estimate than other companies, and their reviews were good. As our designer, Sean was easy-going, accommodating and patient in explaining our options. He promptly created the 3d pdf files with the design of our kitchen, which were helpful to have throughout the project. Adam was in charge of our project, and his responsiveness and understanding were outstanding. At one point we were a bit unhappy with a corner cabinet, but reluctantly we felt we needed to "settle" because there was not sufficient space for a Super Susan. Adam made some research and promptly contacted us with a solution that was perfect for enhanced functionality. Last but not least, Ismar, our foreman on the job was professional, responsive, pleasant, and amazingly skilled. He and his team worked diligently on the electrical portion, cabinet installation, backsplash, appliance installation, and painting. Everyone accommodated us to the best of their ability and always left our house clean and orderly. Well done, VKB!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Whether you want to match your tile trim with grout comes down to your personal preferences. If you match the two, it can help your tiles to stand out while providing a clean, cohesive look. On the other hand, you might opt to match your tile trim with your tiles. The best option will depend largely on your tile design, as well as how it fits overall with the rest of your room.

Tile installation can be expensive because it requires more time and labor to install than many other materials. For example, laminate flooring can click and lock into place, and carpet comes in large rolls that you can secure to the floor. On the other hand, tiles need to be cut, laid individually, grouted, and left to cure.

It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.

There are a few different tools you can use to score tiles. Manual tile cutters or tile scribes work well for scoring in straight lines. Tile nippers are one of the best options for scoring because they can make small and irregular cuts that larger tools may not be able to handle.

Flooring transition strips can be secured to the subfloor using glue, nails, or screws. For a more secure installation, especially in high-traffic areas, using screws or nails is recommended as it reduces the risk of slippage. However, if aesthetic appeal is a priority, glue provides a cleaner, more seamless finish without any visible holes or screw heads.
