"I would highly recommend Bill for a tile project. He did a beautiful job in tiling our garden window, which included, putting some white ceramic tile with some decorative flower tiles on the bottom of the window and up the sides. I feel like he communicated very well with the project, including by email, and also in person. We also talked on the phone once and I appreciated being able to talk to him before booking him to do the project. I feel like he is a true professional, and he was able to advise me on the best layout of the decorative tiles with the plain ones. It is absolutely beautiful and it really makes us feel uplifted to look at it. I feel like he was a reasonable price for the work that he did. He was reliable, and he came on time both days. I also appreciate that he was tolerant of my dogs who are not always welcoming of strangers. I do believe overall the quality of his work would lead me to recommend him to others, and I would give some word of mouth reviews as well to my friends and family if they are looking for someone who would do a good job on tile. He told us a story about how he started learning tile from his father at age 10, and he definitely has some years of experience in learning the business, and now having his own business as well. I also appreciate being able to schedule the job within a short time as I know many people are busy, but I was really happy that I could get the job done in a short amount of time as well. Bill is open to answering questions and I really appreciate that especially because you want to have your work done right even if it is a small project and he was willing to advise us and help us to make this project the best that it could be. I think you for it, and I highly recommend him."

"I would highly recommend Ron. Our project was quite ambitious: complete redo of our guest bathroom (new vanity, shower, tile on wall and floors), redo of two-person master shower, and new kitchen island with installation of induction cooktop and downdraft hood. Ron is without question the best contractor that I have ever worked with. He is detail oriented, a good communicator, VERY knowledgeable (he’s been doing this for decades), and very obviously committed to doing a good job and making sure that people are happy with the result. He’s also a genuinely nice person to work with. Being a detail-oriented person myself I had lots of questions for him throughout the process. He always took the time to explain things to me and if needed alter how he was doing things to fit our needs. He even took the tine to answer other questions about the house that weren’t related to the job. The quality of the renovation depends in large part on the quality of the subcontractors. Ron works with a set group of contractors / companies (plumbers, tile installers, furniture makers, etc.) which he has developed a close relationship over the years. I have consistently been impressed with the quality of their work and they are all genuinely nice/reliable people. It gets tiring over the weeks having strangers in and out of your house and everyone to a person that he works with has been a nice person, obviously committed to their work but also happy to stop and explain exactly what they’re doing and why. I think it’s a testament to the relationship that Ron has built with these contractors that many of them have told me privately and unbidden how much they respect Ron and enjoy working for him (or in the case of companies to which we have been referred have smiled when we told them who had sent us and told us that we were in good hands). One final note. It is apparently common practice for tile workers to pour off their tailings into people’s back yards, despite the fact that this practice is banned by the EPA and illegal in some cities (it is in West Linn where I checked). Given our extensive gardens I balked at this; Ron was surprised that I had an issue with it, but then worked to come up with a workaround that we could all agree on. I’m just putting this in so that if you care about this (it will definitely affect the plants in your yard and also can contaminate the ground water) you can request that whoever you work with develop a different strategy (we let it settle in barrels, poured off the cleanish water into some gravel, and sent the rest of the goop to be disposed of)."

"I was in a hurry to replace the kitchen counter top. Rick called right away, gave us a very reasonable quote, and offered a great suggestion on the pattern for the linoleum. He and his son installed the new counter top today, only two days after I posted on Home Advisor. AMAZING! The new kitchen counter is beautiful! I wish we had done it sooner. Five stars are not enough. They were prompt, friendly, professional, and tidy. Thank you, Kevin and Rick!"

"My husband and I are picky so for us to write a glowing review about Rick and Mike is a testament to their great work. We had our master bathroom remodeled in April and it was a BIG job. They demoed the entire bathroom and installed new tile flooring (heated) and totally rebuilt the shower (neo angle style) that required extreme attention to detail for the glass shower walls and doors to fit correctly. They were great to work with and we always felt comfortable leaving them alone in our house while we were away. The completed project is beautiful and we’ve had many positive compliments about it. If they’re not tired of us, we will gladly have them back for two more projects that we intend to have done."

"I couldn?t recommend Kyle enough to anyone who needs a contractor. Not only did he help me? to save money before I even signed with him. He?s just the type of person you?d actually want in your home, the honest kind. Heck I?d leave my dog with him and wouldn?t worry. Seriously though, every step of the way he was there to help and at what I felt was a fair price in today?s world. About my project. I needed a bathroom redone, and some drywall work. Kyle gave me the options and worked with me guided me along the way so I made the best decisions for myself. I chose my own materials, paint color. Did my own painting and the easy stuff. He gave such great input to help me do that. The bathroom turned out amazing. The floors, dry wall, vanity, mirror, toilet reset, new trim, are all new. The tub was not replaced. Literally blown away at the dry wall work and texturing? magical blending ability and he hand shaped a corner that required custom work. Came out perfect 10/10 will hire again"

"I hired Dorson Jackson of Jackson Construction as my general contractor to perform a kitchen addition and remodel in September 2022. He completely gutted my kitchen, moved a wall to expand the space, and installed new everything (custom cabinets, countertop, tile backsplash, LVP flooring, lighting, plumbing, and appliances). It was a big project so inevitably had a few (pretty minor) hiccups along the way, but he was always quick to respond to and resolve my concerns. I am so pleased with the end result! I recently required a warranty repair due to an issue with my dryer vent (which was moved during the remodel). He had someone at my house the next day to resolve my issue. Dorson is a man of his word and does excellent work. I would not hesitate to hire him again."

"Replaced deteriorated exterior siding where needed, installed several new double pane windows, replaced old carpeting with new hardwood floors, coordinated subcontractors for electrical repairs and interior house painting. All work was done professionally and to our satisfaction. Very impressed with Cody's quality management. He inspected all work by his team as well as the subcontractors to verify that the work was done correctly and to his satisfaction. I can highly recommend Valley Brothers Construction and will call them again if we need further contractor work done on our house."

"I love my new kitchen! I wasnâ t sure exactly what I wanted, so George did a design with my input. After that they went to work, doing the demo, installing my new cabinets, stone countertops, tile backsplash, vinyl plank flooring, new sink and faucet, disposal, crown molding, drywall and paint. George and his crew are highly skilled, while he brought in others to do plumbing and electrical work. The end result is wonderful. I will definitely recommend HandiPro and use them for more projects."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

If you’re looking for a durable tile for a shower floor, consider porcelain, stone, or vinyl tiles. Each of these options, when installed correctly, will stand up well to everything from water and moisture to the impact from a dropped bottle of body wash. These materials are also easy to clean and maintain, making them popular options for shower floors.

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. 

Flooring transition strips can be secured to the subfloor using glue, nails, or screws. For a more secure installation, especially in high-traffic areas, using screws or nails is recommended as it reduces the risk of slippage. However, if aesthetic appeal is a priority, glue provides a cleaner, more seamless finish without any visible holes or screw heads.

The choice of whether to tile or use an acrylic tub surround is up to you and can be based on a number of factors, including aesthetics, cost, waterproofing, ease of cleaning, and maintenance.

Tile is a beautiful, classic bathtub surround choice; while tile installation cost is higher, it’s customizable and offers visual appeal. Tile is also harder to clean and presents waterproofing problems because of grout lines. Acrylic surrounds can be more affordable, don’t require much maintenance, and are easier to clean. However, they aren’t usually as visually appealing and may need to be replaced if they become damaged.
