"I cannot say enough about how well Todd and Dan managed our floor/wall repair project.  It included a water damage demolition team, flooring team from Simas Flooring, drywall team, and baseboard install. Todd was able to be present when the independent insurance adjuster had an appointment and was very helpful in alerting and reminding the adjuster of important items for the insurance quote. Subsequently they managed the actual project with the various flooring and drywall people and it went pretty much according to plan.  All of the workers did great work, but especially want to mention the incredible baseboard work, absolutely beautiful!  Also a shout out to Dan who did an excellent job of communicating via phone, text, and email ? which I
think is the key to a happy customer.  We have had two significant projects (total value over $25K) with Reno Renovators in the last two years and the most important thing we can say is that we trust them."

"Troy was on time to look at job. Spent time going over what he could do to help remodel a bathroom. He explained only the part of the job he could do and I would need to hire others to complete the total work being done such as a plumber and tile person. I was moving a shower, making it bigger, having it tiled and then a cabinet made for the old shower area. He had ideas about what to do and it made sense to us.
He was prompt and on time for meeting. He was a real nice guy and was coming from Carson to do the job in Reno.
Our main concern was that after this original visit, I got one call that he was busy and could not get the estimate done in a timely matter and that he would do it the following week.
I never got an estimate or even another phone call. It has been 3 months with no contact and I hired another person to do the job.
A phone call would have been better than nothing. By waiting for his call and no response to email it delayed my job by months.

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.

If the hearth ends against a wall, you can use a tile cutter as you normally would. However, if the edge of your hearth ends with no surface pressing against it,you may want to look into rounded tiles. These give a smooth edge to your hearth and make sure cut edges aren’t visible. You can also see if the tile you have has pieces that have been glazed or rounded on one edge. You’d then cut the tile and place it normally, with the cut edge facing inward. 

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

On average, tiling a shower costs between $1,800 and $5,000, with most people paying around $2,700. The price of this project depends on multiple factors, including the kind of tile you choose, the size of your shower, and labor rates in your area. If you decide to tile your own shower (instead of hiring a professional), it’ll likely cost $800 to $1,400.

The difference between floor and wall tiles is that floor tiles generally have higher strength and porosity ratings than wall tiles. Wall tiles are typically weaker and more likely to crack or become damaged under sustained pressure like high foot traffic. 

For this reason, avoid using wall tiles on floors and vice versa.
