"I had some bathrooms that were gutted by someone else who did shoddy work, so bad the tile person could not lay the tile. Allan came in and saved the day and even saved my marriage. He got both bathrooms working with beautiful workmanship, great price up front and the greatest contractor experience we ever had. We are now hiring for work in our new home. Highest marks!"
"Knowledgeable, Detail oriented, Patient, and Amazing are the words that come to mind when I think of General Pro Touch! These guys are prompt and readonably priced. I was amazed at how quick they provided me with estimates and their follow up was amazing. They finished remodeling a full bathroom, basement and all bedrooms, I was very pleased with both the experience and the finished product that I ended up re-doing my deck and living room. These guys are magical and their work shows! I highly recommend their services"

I’ve worked in commercial carpentry for 3 years with the union. Decided to switch to remodeling and worked for a company called Cortese Construction for the last 3 years. There I learned how to renovate both large and small kitchen and bathrooms. I can set cabinets, install LVP flooring, tile, hang and finish drywall, paint, install windows and doors, trim, and framing. I can work in the Erie and Niagara county areas.
"My 70 year old bathtub looks brand new and I am so pleased! Chris and Masum did a fabulous job...they were helpful, courteous and professional. They answered every question I had, and cleaned up my bathroom very well. Munro staff, Joanne and Diane, very friendly and gave me instant quote directly over the phone. I would definitely recommend Munro if you want a new and affordable tub and or tile!"
"He was very good and very helpful. Everyday he cleaned up very good before he left. Very nice and polite. I would recommend him to anyone looking to have tile work done anywhere. Excellent job."
For best results, you should remove the toilet in a bathroom before removing tile or installing new tile. If you don’t remove the toilet, it will be harder to fully waterproof the tile around the toilet, which could increase the risk of mold growth or plumbing leaks. If you have trouble removing the toilet, hire a plumber to help.
You can let the tile sit without grout. Don’t panic if there’s a delay between installing the tiles and grouting. A substantial stoppage isn't a problem, provided you keep the tile surface clear of dust and debris. Also, avoid walking over less stable ungrouted floor tiles as they are more prone to premature cracking and shifting.
Many homeowners have successfully retiled a bathroom themselves. It can be a challenging but rewarding process, but it’s best for someone who already has at least intermediate DIY skills.
Yes, you can tile over existing shower tiles, but it's better to remove the old tiles first for the best results. Tiling over existing tiles requires a clean, level surface and proper adhesion. If the old tiles are in good condition, you can roughen the surface to improve adhesion. However, removing the old tiles ensures a smoother, longer-lasting finish and prevents potential issues down the line.
Grouting hearth tiles is one of the most important steps. It seals the tiles so heat doesn’t transfer under the tiles so easily, which can be dangerous. For this reason, heat-resistant grout is a must. Grout also prevents dust, dirt, and any other material from gathering between your tiles. If this happens and those buildups are flammable, a fire could start between the tiles.
