"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."

"Matt performed the installation of a tile backsplash for us over 2 days. He was very knowledgeable and detail oriented in his installation. He asked questions on the intended design, suggested additional details to improve the planned design, and put great thought into his work. He kept the work area clean throughout the installation. I would absolutely hire him again for tile work."

"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."

"We went with KSI because of their excellent reviews, and we were not disappointed. Given a lot of the mixed reviews on here for other area fabricators, we didn't really want to take a gamble on any company that we'd potentially have problems with later, so we're very glad we chose KSI. From start to finish everything was amazing.
KSI's estimate was more detailed than one from another company, the price was a little better, and they seemed to be more able to find the kind of stone we were looking for... all without us having officially "chosen" them yet. We worked with a saleswoman named Kelly and she was wonderful... very quick to respond to emails too. After we decided to go with them, the gentleman who came to measure for the templating was professional, knowledgeable, and answered all our questions. I ended up finding my own slabs at Triton Stone, and the process of getting quotes from KSI on different stones I picked out there was so quick -- it was either the same day or the next.
They were so flexible with us on a number of things, including installation date, avoiding a less desirable spot on one of the slabs, us delaying the measuring until we got some carpentry done, and so on.
The installers were very professional and communicated about everything that needed my input. The undermount sinks and cutouts look great; the cooktop cutout is snug and fits perfectly. No real mess to speak of after they left. There is one part that I wish was more snug with the wall, but they make it clear they can't always conform to walls... and there's not a straight wall in our old house. So it'll be taken care of with a backsplash.
We declined the sealer and warranty, so the price does not include that. We sealed it ourselves with a different product.
We are also so glad that they only charge for the amount of stone used, not the entire slab... which was great because the marble we chose was in smaller slabs, necessitating two for us instead of just one bigger one. So, know that they have remnants available from all their projects.
Overall, we're extremely pleased, and it went so smoothly it's almost a little unreal. We'd use KSI again and absolutely recommend them to others.

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

No, tiling over painted walls or wallpapered surfaces is generally not recommended. Textured surfaces and paints will affect the adhesive, possibly causing tiles to lift or fall off. Painted walls with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish are particularly difficult for adding tiles. It’s wise to strip the paint first if you install the tiles to drywall, although it’s still best to opt for a cement backer board.

There are no unbreakable rules of design, but experts recommend against using large tiles in areas with poor subflooring where they’re more prone to cracking, in areas where the floor isn’t entirely level, over raised areas or dips, and in bathrooms where budget is the primary concern. The size of your bathroom shouldn’t be a reason not to use large tiles; in fact, larger tiles, also known as slab tiles, can be a modern and sleek choice for bathroom floors and walls.

If the hearth ends against a wall, you can use a tile cutter as you normally would. However, if the edge of your hearth ends with no surface pressing against it,you may want to look into rounded tiles. These give a smooth edge to your hearth and make sure cut edges aren’t visible. You can also see if the tile you have has pieces that have been glazed or rounded on one edge. You’d then cut the tile and place it normally, with the cut edge facing inward. 

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.

Many homeowners have successfully retiled a bathroom themselves. It can be a challenging but rewarding process, but it’s best for someone who already has at least intermediate DIY skills.
