"Some miscommunication with dates but that is partially my fault, they made a great effort to still get my install completed in the time frame I requested. The install itself, overall is good, on the refinishing section there is a lot of missed fill work (lots of nails visible), an obvious drop/drip of stain that wasn't smoothed out, and the installers were not very selective with the boards they used and installed so there are a lot of pieces with bug drill holes that could have not been used as I had ordered extra material."

"Very well. I was skeptical at first but Mr Miller put me at ease by sending his information and was very transparent. He said he would be at the location at a specific time, and was. Mr. Miller did a great job staining and keeping me informed of his progress through sending pictures and calling me. I would highly recommend him to anyone and will be using him again for my future projects."

"I hired this professional to install ceramic tile in my bathroom, and I couldn?t be happier with the results. The workmanship is excellent?clean cuts, precise alignment, and a flawless finish that completely transformed the space. He worked efficiently, kept everything organized, and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. Everything was done on time and with great attention to detail. I?m extremely satisfied and would absolutely hire him again. Highly recommended!"

"Amazing job! My roof replacement was done in a timely manner & the crew cleaned up beautifully. My roof tech came back out after the installation to perform another inspection to make sure everything was installed correctly & there were no nails or trash left behind."

"This job went great. Justin and Mike started early and finished the job in one day. This small bathroom remodel involved removing the water heater, toilet, sink and removing and replacing three layers of wet sub floor. New high quality LVP floor was installed over new sub flooe, tub was brought back to level and all fixtures were re-installed. Great job, done correctly in a timely manner. Definitely will hire again."

"They placed cloths throughout the house each day they worked to protect our floors. They removed and replaced everything in our bathroom with expertise. This includes our bathroom floor, vanity/sink, removing tub and installing a complete show with glass doors. They also painted and installed a light/fan combo above our shower. We love everything!"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Your floors should be completely level for tile, otherwise you risk damaging the tiles in the future. When there are even small gaps or hills in the subfloor beneath the tile, this puts more pressure on the tile when you walk around on the floor. With repeated traffic, the tiles are at risk of cracking, and you’ll have to deal with tile repairs sooner than if the floor was completely level.

Yes, even if you’re being careful, removing tile can damage your drywall to some degree. However, you can minimize the damage done to it by eliminating a majority of the grout and taking your time prying each tile off. Also, it's worth noting that you might have more drywall damages to deal with if your tile is set into the mortar.

You have creative freedom when it comes to your tile trim. If, however, you are considering skipping tile trim, please think twice about that. It is good practice to install tile trim, whether on walls or flooring. Think, too, about the aesthetic you are going for and choose a trim type and color that will help enhance the space.

For best results, you should remove the toilet in a bathroom before removing tile or installing new tile. If you don’t remove the toilet, it will be harder to fully waterproof the tile around the toilet, which could increase the risk of mold growth or plumbing leaks. If you have trouble removing the toilet, hire a plumber to help.

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).
