"Dave was right on top of everything. He picked up the sliding patio door for me and installed it. Quality workmanship and attention to detail. He is easy to work with and cleaned up after each visit. I am going to hire him again to paint my great room. I would highly recommend him."

"I called Allen on a Monday to discuss a leak in my roof near the chimney.  He was very courteous and professional, and even though my home was 35 miles from his locatoin, he was familiar with the town and was willing to look at the property to give me a free quote.  I offered to send him photos of the house to give him a better idea of the location of the leak, and type of roofing material etc.  This enabled him to have a better idea of what he would need to fix the problem.   Allen gave me a "ball park" quote over the phone which I felt was more than reasonable, and gave him the "go ahead" to do the work.  Two days later, he arrived as schedlued and completed the work.   While on site, I remembered another leak from my add-on "Carolina Room" and again, he gave me another reasonable quote.   Allen was very knowledable about roofing and knew exactly what had been done (or not done) which allowed the leaks to occur.  He even gave me a guarantee that my roof (the area he repaired) would "never leak again."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Uniform spacing between tiles is important for a professional and clean appearance. To achieve this spacing, tile spacers should be placed between the tiles and left in place until the mortar hardens and the tiles are secure. You can use X-shaped spacers vertically in between the tiles and laid flat at the corners.

You can lay tile directly on a plywood countertop, but if it’s a high-traffic surface in a kitchen, it’s better to add a moisture-resistant base. Plywood is susceptible to moisture, so if dampness seeps through from the surface around the sink or where you prep food, it can cause the plywood to warp, leading to grout damage, cracked tiles, or mold growth under the surface. 

As long as you follow the instructions on your peel-and-stick tile packaging, it should not damage your walls. A possible instance when you may accidentally damage your walls is if you install tiles improperly using additional adhesives that aren’t recommended.

Also, you can damage your walls if you’re not careful when removing tile. For example, you could accidentally make holes in the drywall with a paint scraper if you don’t heat the adhesive long enough before trying to pry it off.

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.

Yes, provided you aren’t installing drywall over it. But you can skim coat it, apply new tile right on top, paint it, or stencil it. For more budget- and DIY-friendly options, you can install beadboard or apply decals. Just make sure that the current tiles are in good condition and prepped well for the paint or adhesive to stick.
