"They did very good on my bathroom remodel. Before my bathroom was a mess and looked outdated. Now, it looks more modern. I really like how they did the tiles."
"Perfect. Installed a new bathroom, handled tile, electric, plumbing. Awesome shower design and the tile came out incredible. Totally professional the whole way. Stuck exactly to the estimate and kept the job site clean."
"Sam installed a glass tile backsplash for me in my kitchen. It wasnâ t the easiest glass tile to work with but he did a great job! It came out fabulous!!!"
"Miguel and his team were excellent. They always arrived on promised start time for the day, MIguel would brief me about the work they intended to do for the day and make sure I understood and agreed with their plan/approach. Every day they went about their business as professionals. When something unexpected came up or they had questions, Miguel informed me immediately and we discussed and resolved how best to move forward. List of jobs performed: Drywall repair, room painting, flooring installation in kitchen and bedrooms, new shower installation, replaced carpeting in two rooms and on stairs, deck post replacements, deck sanding and staining. They made sure to move or cover nearby items while working to protect them, cleaned up at the end of each day, and brought a dumpster to collect and haul away the trash and debris. Could not have asked for better information, recommendations, and professional service."
"PG Tedesco did an excellent job remodeling our bathroom. The team was courteous, easy to work with, and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. They worked with difficult materials- glass tiles - and created a beautiful new bathroom for us. I highly recommend them."
"Diego did an incredible job on our shower! We had to replace the floor and deep clean & seal the surrounding slate. Diego was detailed oriented, and generally great to have in our home. Would highly recommend ADJ construction and we will absolutely use Diego & his team again"
"They did an excellent job, and in a reasonable amount of time. The cost was increased by the fact that they had to re-do some work by someone we previously hired who was terrible and unreliable, but it was well worth it!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
It’s best to start with tiling the shower floor before moving on to the walls for the most visually-pleasing results. When taking on any tiling project, you’ll want the wall tiles to “sit” neatly on the floor tiles rather than overlapping them. Finishing your floor tiles first will allow you to place your wall tiles without any gaps, holes, or awkward intersections.
You cannot tile directly over hot mop waterproofing because tile requires a smooth, solid surface to adhere properly. Additionally, the shower bed pan needs to be raised and sloped toward the drain to prevent water from pooling. However, you can hot mop and apply a sloped mortar bed over the top (to which the tile can then be adhered).
There are several different products that allow underwater repair. Pool putty can help repair chips, cracks, and loose tiles without draining your pool, but it should only be used for a temporary fix. Certain two-part epoxy adhesives will cure underwater, too. That said, while it is technically possible to fix pool tiles underwater, it is usually not ideal, depending on the depth of your pool. You will still have to reach the tile, which means you might have to dive and make the repair while submerged.
Yes, you can tile over existing tiles in a bathroom, but it is not always recommended. For this method to be successful, the original tile surface must be clean, flat, and free of damage such as cracks, unevenness, mold, or mildew. While tiling over existing tiles can save time and money, there are potential drawbacks. The new adhesive may not bond properly, and the process adds extra weight to the wall or floor. Additionally, the increased height of the surface could interfere with door clearances. For the best and most durable results, removing the old tiles before installing new ones is generally the better option.
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.
