They are a very talented and skilled company."

Nick Sippl, owner of Nick's Tile and Stone, has been working with Stone and Ceramic Tile for over fifteen years. Though the company was started primarily a tile repair business, it is now a full line Tile, Stone, Barrier Free / Handicap, and Water Damage Restoration company.
\nWe have seen many changes in the technology and products we use.
\nIt's our goal to stay on top of these changes so you the customer can benefit by receiving a top quality installation, and a product that we know you will enjoy.
\nOur goal is customer satisfaction. It's what the business is built on.
\n
\nJust a quick overview of our main specialties:
\n
\nCeramic Tile
\nCeramic tile installation and repair is what the business was founded on in the early 1990��s. The main specialty was repair. We would take on jobs no one else wanted to. Such as leaking shower floors. We also found that many times a simple repair was all that was needed as opposed to an entire removal and reinstall. This also led to becoming a leader in Insurance repair.
\nAlthough repair started the business, the majority of work is now installation.
\n
\nNatural and Cultured Stone installation
\nBranching off into the Stone installation part of the business was a natural transition.
\nWe put the same high quality expertise into a Stone installation of either Natural or Cultured stone. We can handle the entire job from frame up to the final stone set.
\n
\nBarrier Free / Handicap Accessibility
\nBarrier free is a term that has been heard a lot lately, and will continue to grow as the "baby boom" generation gets older and will desire the convenience and beauty of a barrier free shower and bathing area. The one question you will hear most from us regarding Barrier Free is
\n�You�re the customer, your needs come first. What do you want and need from this installation?�
\nOur goal is to make you a satisfied and above all �Comfortable � customer regarding your Barrier Free installation.
\n

\nI love MIchigan. However, due to the rise in operating costs, we have resorted to charging a estimate / trip charge. In most instances, the charge will be $25.00. Unfortunately, we have some customers just "Price Shopping". This is refunded when your job is completed.

If your home’s foundation shifts slightly over time, any seams in the drywall represent the weakest point in the wall, leading to cracks. If your home has significant changes in temperature and humidity, this can cause the drywall to swell and contract slightly, causing a crack at the weak point of the seam. If your drywall installer did a poor job securing the panels to the wall studs, this could cause a weak layout and cracks in the seams.
Some painters will repair minor drywall damage. For repair work of any kind, it’s a good idea to hire the professional required for the job. Many painters will have the materials on hand and can add them to the total cost. While you may save some money, there is a chance the work will be subpar compared to a professional who specializes in drywall.
Yes, a fan can help drywall mud dry faster by improving air circulation and reducing humidity in the room. Drywall mud dries through evaporation, so increasing airflow speeds up this process. However, you should position the fan to blow across the room rather than directly on the wet mud. This helps prevent drying too quickly, which can cause cracking. You should also use a dehumidifier if high humidity is an issue.
While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.
Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.
