A previous remodel by another contractor did not hold up. The shower floor tile collapsed. Gerry diagnosed the problem and replaced the shower floor with new flooring and tiles. He showed up when promised and did a great job. The only issue was he had to come back for some details that needed to be completed and was delayed due to other jobs he had going on. So it took longer to complete the project than expected.

Great! Jerry did the most amazing job. I couldn't be happier with the result. It is so 5 star hotel beautiful, that is what my son said, "Makes you feel like you are in a fancy hotel." He was on time every day. He wants the customer to be happy with the result and treats your remodel like it is his most important job. That is what you should want and definitely need in a contractor. I would and have recommended Bud's to several friends. Call him-you won't regret it. I have attached a couple before pics, wished I had taken better ones. And some after.

Fantastic. Bud's Ceramic Tile should be the model for all contractors. The job was executed exactly how it was assessed. The tile work came out beautifully. Jerry from Bud's Tile is a true professional - great communications, fantastic workmanship and he delivered on schedule just as he indicated when we signed the contract.
Description of Work: The grout on our aged ceramic tile in the shower/bathtub area was popping out so I originally thought that re grouting the area was all that was needed. Jerry from Bud's Tile assessed the job and said the issue was due to water damage and re-grouting would not solve problem. Based on his recommendation we had the tile that surrounded the tub & shower replaced.

We are very pleased with the updated shower. He helped us choose some accessories and installed them for a reasonable extra cost.
Description of Work: Initially it was a grout removal and replacement. He was not able to work with our grout type and quantity for the price. We negotiated a remodel of the shower area and he credited the special deal to the job.

Our goal was to restore our moldy bathtub tile grout to clean and white. Jerry was on time and completed the job as we agreed upon. He was up front on the initial phone call that at times the tiled walls could have something wrong and he would need to assess the condition. His goal was to do a professional job and he did. There was water damage around the faucet and spout areas. Jerry explained the extra work that repairing the above water damage would need , and we accepted the reasonable price. Jerry restored our tiled walls ; they look clean and fresh. He cleaned up after his work.

The owner of the company and a trainee repaired and installed new grout in morning session. Fast! It looked brand new. They were extremely patient and professional while explaining their methods and materials.
Description of Work: The grout (in the bathtub area) was deeply cracked, especially where the two walls joined together. Under the silicone were large areas of black mold. The tiled ceiling was cracked, moldy, and had areas of missing grouting. The edge of the tub on near the tile and the floor was uneven and unprofessional.

It went very well. He walked us through what he was going to be doing, he told us what challenges there would be in completing the work and where we might run into trouble but it turns out that there were no cost overruns and there was no attempt to sell add on services or anything like that. There was a little bit of cleanup required after they left and since this was all work done in the shower area, the bathtub was filled with some grit and some of the grouting residue that we had to clean up. So I think if he really wanted to be spot on, he could have done a little better job cleaning up up. But that's really kind of picky because the work itself was done very well.
Description of Work: They did a bathtub area re-grout and caulk replacement as per the Big Deal purchase.

Buds did an excellent job on our bathroom remodel. He was very detailed, punctual, and always cleaned up behind himself at the end of the day. Bud wasn't the lowest quote, but I'm fairly confident his workmanship would have surpassed any other contractor we spoke to. The project also took a little longer than we had hoped, but I attribute this to Buds eye to detail and not rushing the project. We would hire Bud again in a heart beat, and have no reservations in recommending him to friends or family.

Called Jerry to get an estimate for backsplash work to be done at my moms house. He responded quickly and showed up on time. He took some measurements and gave us some recommendations and waited for price. The estimate was very reasonable and we signed a contract. Picked out the subway tile and decorative tile for the center of the backsplash and waited for for him to let us know when he could start. He was very prompt and did some initial drywall work. He then came back a few weeks later to start the backslash. Jerry and his sidekick Rob did a terrific job. They had to work around some window and cabinet issues and they did so with no problem. These guys are not only true professionals, but a real pleasure to deal with. Anybody who is in the market to have ceramic tile work done, Buds ceramic tile should be the only call you make!!!!

The job was performed very quickly and wonderfully.
Description of Work: I had Buds Ceramic and Tile redo my shower walls. They pulled out the old shower surround and the walls as well. They put in new walls that were needed to be able to attach the ceramic tile. After the tile was all up he had to make a miner adjustment to my pipe because the added thickness to the wall made the pipe too short to attach the tub faucet. I am VERY happy with the finished job and I have nothing but praise for this company. They are punctual, work all day, clean up as they go, and do a fantastic job.

Bud was friendly, very specific in what I needed to do. He worked hard every day and cleaned out the big trash as he went along. He used my garage to store his tools and supplies. That made things go more quickly. I was also able to leave the house to run errands without worry.
Description of Work: Provider came in to evaluate my tile and grouting on the bath surround. It had been leaking into the basement. Plumbers told me it was a tile problem. Buds came in, showed me how bad the situation was (leaking almost halfway up the wall) and told me I would need to replace the surround completely. We agreed on a price, date and the work was completed in a week. New concrete wallboard had to be put in and new tile as well. When the job was completed I had a new, modern looking bath and surround. I was very satisfied with the look and workmanship.

Gerry went above and beyond. He went out of his way to work around our schedule. We trusted him with his professional choice of tile. He picked a tile that would compliment what was already in the rest of the bathroom. He went to 5 different tile suppliers to find just the right tile. It looks beautiful! He and his assistant were professional, polite, friendly, very hard workers and left no mess. We will be hiring him in the future for any and all of our tile work in the future.
Description of Work: He tore out the tile and the drywall that was in the bath tub area. He then replaced it with the correct backing board that should have been used in the 1st place. He completely replaced all the tiles in bath tub area. He used only top grade materials.
