"I called on Sat and owner told me who would be calling to repair the granite along with description and truck he drove to feel comfortable. The employee never called so called owner Sunday late afternoon. She apologized and they came out Monday as scheduled. There were multiple chips and rough areas on granite by the sink and the job done was very good. And the price included a travel fee of @75.00 and was still very reasonable. I highly recommend them."
"They were able to do the work immediately. They did good work. Because of the high cost of lumber, the job cost more than he originally quoted. I would have liked to have known that before the work was completed and the final payment was made. The work was done well and completed in 2 days. We appreciated that. This is a reputable company."
"Amazingly well. Romel is very professional, we had an extremely tight deadline to have the job done. Full remodeling of a kitchen in a 82 rooms hotel (Wingate Hotel Chattanooga,TN). He had all the tools necessary to get everything done within 4 days. We are very happy with the finishings. Highly recommend him. We are planning on hiring him again on a few touches we need (painting, bathroom remodeling, new floors)."
When tiling over concrete, you should install an anti-fracture membrane after the concrete has been prepared. The anti-fracture membrane acts as a moisture barrier and should be installed to protect the tiles from moisture which helps maintain their integrity. Often, Ditra, a brand name, is used interchangeably with moisture barrier.
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.
To ensure an even and unbending surface to lay tiles on, you’ll typically need to put a subfloor under a tile floor. Fiber cement backboards are the most common choice, but using plywood is also possible. Don’t neglect this step, or you could risk water damage and grout or tiles prematurely cracking or crumbling, especially in an area with high foot traffic.
Yes, you can tile a shower as a DIY project, and you can save hundreds of dollars in labor costs by doing so. However, you’ll need to rent or buy quite a few tools and supplies for the job, including a saw, tile nippers, and a new shower pan. In terms of the work itself, you should be prepared to tackle a variety of different tasks, including measuring and ordering materials, removing old tile, waterproofing the wall, adding rows of tile, grouting, and more.
Grouting hearth tiles is one of the most important steps. It seals the tiles so heat doesn’t transfer under the tiles so easily, which can be dangerous. For this reason, heat-resistant grout is a must. Grout also prevents dust, dirt, and any other material from gathering between your tiles. If this happens and those buildups are flammable, a fire could start between the tiles.
