"Work was for a few tile grout items, mainly re-grouting vanity countertop in two bathrooms and a shower stall. High quality work, fair price. Minor touch-up was needed a couple of weeks later; handled effectively."
"I called Ray around 9:30 pm and he answered the phone right away. I told him several lights had been flickering and when I had gone downstairs I discovered that the breaker box was emitting a burning smell. He said he would be right over. Ray arrived shortly thereafter and diagnosed the problem - Two bad breakers with loose tabs which caused arching and heated up the buss bar. Since the service cable was old and the panel had burnt buss bars it was necessary for these to be replaced. Ray did not have the components necessary to do the repair that evening. I told him that I had plans to go on vacation the next morning and now wondered if I could go at all or for it to be delayed (fortunately this all happened the evening before I had left). He said he would come back first thing in the morning to do the work so that I could leave for vacation but made sure it would be safe before he left. And, if I did notice any more burning to call him right away (which I did not). Ray and his co-worker arrived by 7 am and performed the work. In addition, Ray also installed a new light fixture in the kitchen (ironically, I had called him earlier in the day (mid-afternoon) to do this work but he was so swamped that he could not fit me in, which I understood completely and it was not an emergency. So, I had already found his company off of Angie's List at that time). Anyway, all the work was finished well before noon and it was now safe to leave for vacation. Ray was extremely nice as well as professional and I am very thankful that he could help me, even though he had a long day. Ray and his co-worker made sure everything was cleaned up when they left. I would not hesitate to call him again (and intend to do so since I already have another job for him to do)."
"I have the most beautiful kitchen ever. It is a dream to work work in and the workmanship is simply amazing! Les and Eric designed amazing work space and Tim provided almost artistry in his installation. There is not one thing that has come loose or was uneven - it was so worth all of the effort and the wait! I will say this - it took longer than I had anticipated and with three kids in the house - that was hard. But when it was done? Oh my - so gorgeous and wonderful! "

"This was the second time we hired Willis. He did such a nice job on our kitchen three years ago, so we did not hesitate to hire him again. The job is done and we are very pleased with the results. We started with just a shower. We wanted to make it bigger and use the extra space we had. But we ended up remodeling the entire bathroom: bathtub, new sinks, painting. Willis was very patient with us and as always offered very nice ideas. It felt like he knew better than we did what we wanted our bathroom to look like. What was really nice is that he and his crew always cleaned up after they finish their work. This was very important to us as we have kids and they are all over the place. Given all the circumstances, the remodeling took much longer than we expected it to be, but we were willing to wait. It takes time to do the job properly."
Home Crafters are very professional. They were the first, after I had called 20-25 roofers, to actually call me back and give me an estimate. They told me that they would not be the cheapest but they would do the work by the end of the year like I wanted and do a professional job.
The main roof of the house had cracked shingles and looked ragged. There were no leaks nor evidence of water leakage inside. It had 2 layers of shingles on it.
Their estimate included: - removal of existing material to roof decking, - inspect deck and replace boards if required for an extra charge, - Install 30 lb roofing felt, - install 30 linear feet of ice and water sheild, - install all new flashing, - install new 30 year shingles, - Install new aluminum fascia in front, - install new aluminum gutter in front.
Total cost was to be $ 8225.00.
The main reason I did not hire them was that I could not get over the fact that installing the gutter added $ 900.00 to the total cost. I thought gutter installation should have been cheaper. It turns out that if I would have hired them I would have had the work done by December like I wanted instead of January-February.
I would definitely give these guys a chance in the future. They seem like real professionals.
"They were highly personable, professional, quick, and they did a very neat and clean job. I would recommend them without reservation if you need a basic wooden fence that is well built and nicely installed. Every part of the experience was actually pleasant....so rare!"
"Excellent experience. Gary and his crew were very responsive. Came out to give an estimate the day after I called him and provided an estimate much lower than the other lining company I had contacted. He showed me the problem in my sewer with his sewer cam and explained exactly how he would install the lining. He also showed me a sample of the lining material and the warranty they provide with their work. He was out the following week exactly on schedule. His crew was very professional and all very nice guys. They conducted all the work exactly as explained beforehand and had all the repairs/lining installed exactly on schedule. He also lined up all the the follow up inspections required by the municipality and county and was present for the inspections. All in all I think he and his crew did an excellent job and got us through our problem without any surprises and at a very reasonable price. I would definitely recommend AK Pipe Lining Co. to anyone needing sewer repairs. "
While you can put Drano in a sink with standing water, most plumbers don’t recommend doing so. It usually doesn’t help to clear the clog, and you’ll end up with a sink full of standing water plus a toxic chemical—which is very unpleasant to deal with and best handled by a professional.
Today’s standard sink stopper size is 1.5 inches. However, you can still find different sizes if your house uses an older sink stopper. Other sizes you can find in most hardware stores include one inch, 1-1/4 inch, 1-3/8 inch, 1-5/8 inch, 1-7/8 inch, 2 inch, 2-1/4 inch, 2-3/8 inch, and 2.5 inch.
Pedestal sinks are bolted or screwed into the floor and the wall to prevent it from moving out of place. You may have to change or add to the bathroom flooring when installing a pedestal sink if the flooring was laid around the previous sink, not under it.
The biggest sign that your flange leaks is if you notice water at the base of the toilet. The cause is likely due to a poor flange installation, so you might have issues with loose bolts, an uneven flange, or a cracked plastic flange. Add a deteriorating wax seal to this, and you have a recipe for disaster. The best solution is to shut off the water valve, replace the toilet flange, and seal it with a new wax ring.
Yes, you can install an undermount sink with laminate. Installing an undermount sink with laminate countertops requires a superior adhesive to keep moisture away from the particleboard within the countertop. An undermount sink offers better hygiene since there’s no sink rim promoting bacteria growth, offers a streamlined appearance, and makes wiping away messes a breeze.
