It would be nice if the many other business and service companies would exhibit and provide this level of skill ,professionalism and integrity.
Because of the quality of work and other positive reviews I assume this company is very busy, so if you need a project done better allow for some waiting time.
"I did remove most of the masking paper from this job. The paper that I didn't remove was due to this being a very larg jet tub and I was unable to access the back corner until it fully cured. The small amount of paper would take approximately three minutes to remove. In many cases of re glazing i am unable to completely remove all the paper and a very small amount is left for the customer, usually about 3 to 5 minutes to remove. They were also made aware that they would need to re caulk where the tub sat on the tile platform. Re caulking will cover the tiny slivers of glaze where the masking tape was applied (I am un able to mask completely to to tile surface due to bridging, where the glaze overlaps the item being glazed and the tape. Because of glaze bridging I need to leave a small air space. The result is small slivers of glaze that can be easily and very effectively covered with caulk) Per the estimate the customer did notvwant me to re caulk. (To quote the customer "My husband is very capable of caulking, I'm sure he can handle it himself") I try my hardest to do the best possible job I can. Unfortunately I am unable to please everyone, everytime"
I would have Steve out again as he does great work and is professional and courteous but the paint job I had to have repaired myself was the only thing I was disappointed in. I also felt that Steve should have been the one to come out and remove the tape; that way he could have checked his work.
Steve was punctual, reliable, and professional. We highly recommend him for anyone looking to do exactly what the company's name describes: revive their tile.
Three major problems:
The fumes were absolutely terrible, and, from what we read, tub glazing fumes are extremely toxic. As my wife was pregnant at the time, it would have been nice to know ahead of time that we would need to be living somewhere else for a week, until the fumes dissipated. We had to stay in a hotel for 5 nights, due to the fumes.
About a week or two AFTER the job was completed, he gave us a pamphlet of instructions of HOW TO CARE FOR THE REGLAZED TUB. Basically, you can only use Dow's Scrubbing Bubbles to clean it, anything will chip it, NO shower mats, no suction cups, if the shower spray falls it will chip it or scratch it. Basically, the reglazed tub LOOKS a lot nicer, but it is totally inferior in terms of durability, in comparison to original tub.
The tub turned out very nice, but we had to hire another guy to come out and re-caulk the tub, where it met the floor and the wall.
These major factors and expenses would have been nice to know BEFORE the job. He did his job and it looks nice, but these surprises were unacceptable. I cannot believe--in all of his years and experience--that he can consistently forgets to mention these things to the customers OR maybe it was just this one time.
The work done (ripping out the old tile) was top quality--he was careful to leave adjoining wallpaper intact, which we requested. I think the price might be a little high for the job, but I did not ask for other quotes and I'm not sure. Since he was so patient with us as the job continued to change, I can't complain. Steve has been great about responding to phone calls and questions. When we were having difficulty with dropped phone service, he even drove into town to find an area with better reception to return my call.
We plan to use Steve to clean and seal our bathroom floor tile when the tub surround work is completed. He has been polite, professional, and easy to work with. I would recommend him to anyone who needs cleaning or repair work for tile.
