"After he left the project. The mini split air conditioner that he selected and installed did not work. Upon further research, it was actually low-rated for energy efficiency. I picked a better minister, and he complained about fixing it and threatened to have me repair it, and it took four months to get it replaced. I had to use a space heater for the four months that I waited for the repair. Even though that new mini split was already delivered. We had many arguments, and he used foul language. It was unpleasant working with him and unprofessional to work with."

"Luis Monge and his crew were true professionals. Their prices were reasonable, and their work was impeccably done. We were having major leak issues in our garage and laundry room. They repaired and tiled the porch, took care of the many issues surrounding the front stairs and outside the garage area. We weren't planning on having them take care of our retaining walls and inside the garage and laundry area, but after seeing their results, we added these tasks onto the scope of work. They completed everything in the timeline they gave us, and we were pleased with all of the work they did. A couple of days after the work was completed, the skies opened up, and even with the record setting rainfall, we were grateful that there were zero leaks. We would definitely recommend them to anyone who asks for a reference. You'll be so happy you called them."

"I have worked with Gerson and his team for more than 10 years on many different projects. My house is over 100 years old and the electrical wiring needed to be totally replaced. The walls were mostly plaster and Gerson was able to patch and skim coat annd paint all the walls in my 5. Bedroom center hall colonial style 4 story home. He was always on time and left the space each day clean and usable while the electrician moved from room to room. During this long project Gerson was able to do extra work, such as renovate the bathroom with new tub/toilet and tiled the walls and floor, install 12 new interior doors and 10 new windows, install LVT throughout the finished basement, install new cement window wells outside, replaced the flagstone on the back stoop and Sheetrock on the inside of the garage. He is very skilled in all areas of construction and was wonderful to work with. I would hire him for any future job I need. One before phot and 2 after photos"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

Yes, it’s possible to cut tile without a wet saw; instead, you can use an angle grinder, a glass cutter, a snap cutter, tile nippers, or a rotary tool with a tile-cutting blade. A manual tile cutter or snap cutter works well for the larger tiles that wet saws are typically used for, while smaller projects might just require nippers or a glass cutting wheel. If you’re working with large quantities of tile, however, power tools are best.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.

Removing old tiles can be more complicated, but it can also be more manageable, depending on your circumstances. Typically, old tile is hard to remove because the adhesive had loads of time to bond with your wall, becoming a formidable foe between you and your new tile installation project. On the other hand, old tile in high-traffic areas can become loose, making it much easier to remove.

The rule tells you how to cut tile to install it in a corner. The 3/4/5 rule recommends that you should have 3 feet across on one straight line, four feet on the other perpendicular line, and 5 feet of length from the end of one of the lines to the other. You’re making a right triangle with the tile, and the hypotenuse (the line across from where the 3-foot lie and 4-foot line meet) should be 5 feet long.
