"Trinh Brothers remodeled my entire basement, kitchen bathroom, installed flooring in every room of my home, built a roof for my patio, installed new doors, painted every room, etc. etc. They were amazing. So talented and the nicest people I've ever done business with. They worked almost 10 hour days for two months and went above and beyond for me. Highly recommend them."

"Mr. Gerson(& crew) were very professional and on time. I requested luxury vinyl floors installed with base boards and quarter round throughout. They over delivered and were completely done in one day as promised. The look and feel have exceeded my expectations. I am very, very, very pleased."

"I can’t say enough good things about this company. We hired them to do a kitchen renovation. Both Mitch and Bob did an outstanding job in every aspect. They they were very knowledgeable and quick to resolve any issues that arose unexpectedly. They paid great attention to detail didn’t rush through any of the projects and still finished in a timely manner. They both showed up every day on time and they responded to any phone calls or questions in a timely manner. We have hired many contractors over the years and I honestly can say I would not recommend any of them to my friends or family. However, in this case I would be very happy to recommend both Mitch and Bob to any of my friends or family. It gives me piece of mind to know that on my future projects I won’t have to search for a contractor. I’ll know exactly where to go. 5stars"

"These guys were amazing. I hired them to install a new backsplash and to fix some cracked grout. John came out to my house within a day and set up his associate Allen to be at my place right before the holidays. Allen was punctual, professional, and really educated me about the things I should do and lookout for with my tiles. He even found out that I needed extra tile in my shower - where I had no clue that I even had an issue there. As soon as I got the extra tile, John and Allen scheduled to come back right away and finished the job without a hitch. They stayed in constant contact with me and updated me every step of the way. Having hired a lot of contractors recently, I have to say I am very pleased with the care and attention these guys gave me. A"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

When choosing tiles for a shower floor, avoid highly porous tile materials, like those with a water absorption rating over 7%. Don’t use non-vitreous tiles, or tiles fired at low temperatures, because they will absorb more water. If you use a highly porous tile in the shower, the tiles can wear down faster, meaning they’ll need to be replaced much sooner.

Tile shouldn’t be set tight against the tub. Bathtubs can expand when filled, and they can shift slightly with the weight of occupants. For this reason, it’s important to leave a slight gap between the bathtub and the first row of tile. Aim for a narrow gap of approximately 1/16 of an inch, filled with caulk, to allow for this expansion and movement while still allowing for tile shower waterproofing.

Travertine is a natural stone, while porcelain is ceramic. You can enjoy the best of both worlds with porcelain travertine tiles. Some people prefer porcelain to travertine because it doesn’t require regular maintenance and it’s easier to clean. Porcelain travertine looks like the real thing but only costs $3 to $6 per square foot.

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). 

Popular options include ceramic, porcelain, stone, and glass tiles, chosen based on the area (bathroom, kitchen) and desired aesthetic.
