"Reviewed a few companies before choosing Green Home installations. They were quick to come out for an initial estimate - pricing was fair - and showed up on time for their appointment to install the fence in one day. Thoroughly cleaned up after the install and delivered a great product. I am extremely happy with my fence, the work provided by their install team and their front office staff. Highly recommend them for your fencing needs."

"First Brandon was here for the estimate. He is very professional, friendly, and helpful. Then, Bradee and Harry came to do the repair. They were so outstanding, they did more than I expected, everything was so neat and they are just awesome! Hard working, friendly, excellent craftsmen. This is who you should call with your roofing needs."

"The granite was beautiful and for the most part the installation was done well, but the service fell down in a few ways. We had hired them before to remodel two bathrooms and that went well. This time around though, we were disappointed. First, the counter for the half bath was cut wrong: the hole for installing the sink was off center, by a lot -- 6 inches or more. Since there was no surplus of that piece of granite, we had to go with another which was not quite the same. Then for installing the bar sink in the kitchen, the worker did not ask me before cutting in the hole for the faucet, and even when I was standing right there, he was on a phone call as he worked and would not talk to me. He cut the hole too close to the small sink; we may have to replace the faucet with a smaller one. Third, we wanted a white sink in the bath. The rep in the store kept trying to sell us one which was off-white. We were told that was the only "white" one of that size. We had a plumber ready to install the sinks. I went home, went online, and bought an actually white Kohler sink of the right size which I got delivered the next day, free express shipping. About the same cost as at Knoxville Stone Interiors. The company reps were amazed as my success. I was surprised that they wouldn't have known how to do what I did."

"A week before my appointment, I contacted Eric just to be sure he didn't forget about me. He said he'd be here at 8am sharp on the 9th. He actually arrived about 7:20. At the end of each day, he'd tell me what time they'd be back the next morning. They were always a little early. Eric and Keith worked hard all day every day. I never saw them even take a break. They put down drop cloths and were very careful with everything in my house. The fiberglass tub/shower unit is now gone and they did an awesome job with the tiled in shower. Everything in my new bathroom is perfect... including the paint job! Next time I need something done I won't call anyone else."

"Eddie was able to work when others were not. I was having old bathroom vanities removed and new vanities installed. In between these jobs, Eddie was able to get my old floor removed and the new tile installed, plus he hauled away the old flooring and an old toilet and installed a new toilet. All this happened with a minimum of down time for the bathroom. I was very pleased. The new floor looks great."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, it would be best if you waterproofed your shower walls before tiling. The cement backing board behind the tile is not waterproof; it’s only water-resistant. On top of your tile backing board, be sure to use a waterproof shower membrane before you start installing your shower tiles.

It’s possible to walk on a clay tile roof, but you run the risk of breaking or cracking the tiles if you’re not careful, so it’s best not to walk on it if you can avoid it. If you or a contractor needs roof access, be sure to distribute your weight evenly and step on the portions of tile that are also supported underneath, which depends on your tile design. Walking on any roofing material is inherently dangerous, so wear rubber-soled shoes and use safety equipment if you need to access your roof.

You can attach tiles to a wall using thin-set mortar. You’ll also need a notched trowel to create grooves within the adhesive so it flattens completely when pressed in and securely holds the wall tiles. Finally, you’ll need grout to smooth the gaps between the tiles and, ideally, a grout sealer to prevent mold. While it sounds simple enough, proper planning and execution are crucial, so carefully review the steps in this guide or hire a pro tile installer to complete this project.

Like glass tiles, you will not need to seal most porcelain tiles, particularly if the porcelain is already glazed. It depends on quality. Porcelain is very water resistant, but it is not 100% waterproof. To avoid staining, some homeowners use a penetrating sealer. It is also a good idea to seal your grout. Unless you use epoxy grout, grout is very porous and can harbor bacteria, mold, and mildew.

The process takes two to four days, depending on the size of the area and your experience level. The first day involves assessing and prepping the existing tile, while the second day is for laying the new tile. This may take longer in complex areas. After letting the adhesive dry for 24 hours, grouting and sealing can be completed on day three. For larger projects or intricate tile patterns, expect the timeline to stretch a bit longer. Also, proper drying time between steps is essential for long-lasting results, which extends the project’s time.
