"I found him hard to work with (e.g. doesn't listen, pushy about doing it his way.) I was really hesitant after the estimate but he just kept pushing about it and I didn't have any other options - but I was sorry afterwards. I don't really like it, the quality doesn't seem great - but most important, it's not level. Drives me crazy and looks bad - just three panels and it's not level! Makes me nuts looking at it - feels like I threw my money away."
"All around, Marshall Handyman Services did a fine job with our fence. They were the least expensive out of all of the bids we received, and provided quality in service. One year later, the fence functions well and looks great."
"They got the job done promptly & efficiently. Very courteous & kept us informed of any concerns regarding the job. I would definitely contact them in the future if needed & recommend them to friends & family."
"Purchased coupon on August 11, 2011. Because I was remodeling my kitchen myself after work and weekends, I didn't have time to deal with the creating the room drafts, plans, layouts or measurements she required. I did contact Jill and explain the situation and she was very understanding. She said because I contacted her, not to worry about the deadline. I remained in contact with her over the next few years (that's how long it took me) and when I was ready around the start of 2014, she worked hard to provide her new design. A true professional and great person to work with. The design was spot on and my wife and i were very impressed. Thank you Jill. "
"Green Construction proved to be very hard working. They were the lowest bid I received, but far exceeded my expectations on getting the job done and worked with me to make sure we completed the job just like we designed. I would highly recommend this crew."

"He was amazing! He did my kitchen backsplash and my girls bathroom flooring. It turned out super nice! Being a single mother, he made me feel very comfortable while he was working in my home which is super important. He also offers amazing value! His bid was $2000 less than another company that quoted me. I have feeling that they were trying to take advantage of me, and I am happy that I called Chad and hired him. He was amazing and I have nothing bad to say about him! Chad was super friendly, very meticulous, and an all around great guy! his work turned out beautiful."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
Thinset mortar is the best adhesive for ceramic tiles on concrete. It is easy to work with and has a slower dry time than mastic or epoxy mortars. This longer dry time gives the installer more time to adjust tiles, which is especially useful for DIYers who may not have tile installation experience. It can also be built up to help level any depressions or gaps in the concrete subfloor.
Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.
Installations typically take 1-3 days, depending on area size; repairs are usually completed sooner if the issue is localized.
You can technically install tile over tile, but we don’t suggest it. Installing tile over any surface that isn’t a completely flat and prepared subfloor will result in a shoddy overall job, uneven flooring, tiles that don’t adhere, extra weight, gaps, cracks, and room for moisture and dirt to enter. For the best results, only install new tile on a flat, sanded surface like subflooring or concrete that is prepared for tile.
If you have asbestos tile and would rather tile over it than remove it, or if your existing tile is completely flat and bonded tightly to the floor, you may be able to tile over existing tile. But experts recommend thinking twice before you do.
No, painting shower tile doesn’t last and is better reserved as a temporary solution to refreshing the look of old tiles. Shower tile paint may last around one to five years, depending on how well you prep the surface before painting, the type of paint you use, the type of tile in your shower, and how often you use the shower.
