"I’ve used Don to build, and install, custom built work in the three homes I’ve lived in. Over 10 years ago, I contacted Don to build a custom kitchen island that I designed. He built it and worked hand-in-hand with my granite guy to make sure the island was built and installed to my specifications. This time, I designed a full wall desk and book case. He built it exactly as I designed. His install team did a great job installing. Note: Don does not paint/stain the work. He finishes it to paint/stain grade. I can’t recommend Don Dockery enough. Remember: you get what you pay for."

"Highly recommend for your next project! Johan and his team completed a full remodel on a secondary bath due to a shower leak. Every day he would communicate who would be at the house, when they would arrive and what they would be working on. He would always show up on site to verify the quality of work and was constantly double-checking clearances, dimensions, alignments, terminations, and functionality of all bath components. Proper preparation was completed such as leveling, blocking, and waterproofing. Tile installation was well executed as they minimized undesired cuts and aligned fixtures/niches to desired joint lines. Schulter trims at door casing, niche, linen cabinet, and upper tile were nice finishing touches. As a client I felt I got his undivided attention, and he treated the job as if it was his own. I will add that I have a strong design and construction background, so there was a familiarity with the entire process. This job took about 2 weeks, and I did have to wait about 3 months from the date of quote for availability. Well worth it! Couldnâ t be happier with the results."

"Shower stall installation was quick, accurate and professional. I choose subway tile white acrylic because I wanted the no grout / easy maintenance, and clean appearance. Cannot comment on other installation options (tile). More expensive than a independent contractor in general. Great option if you don't mind paying for the 1 day turnaround to get it done. Time will tell on the no mold sturdiness of the acrylic, but pleased so far."

"If you need any stonework done (retaining wall, outdoor living areas, anything along those lines), I would highly recommend Tecton Stoneworks. In fact, I can't recommend them enough, as they did a great job for us. I hired them to replace a retaining wall along a drainage easement on the property and the work they did was exceptional. They demolished the old retaining wall (railroad ties from the 1990s), laid a footer, and put in the new wall with no problems at all. We decided to go with the less expensive option of using blocks for the retaining wall instead of utilizing the more decorative stone that would typically be used because this retaining wall is facing a drainage easement and curls around to a drainage ditch. They put capstones on the top of the wall, mortared everything in place, and added a lot of drainage which has already reduced the amount of standing water our yard retains after rain. Additionally, they put the fence posts inside the retaining wall which makes yard maintenance easier in years to come. And, above all, it looks good. Beyond just the quality of the work, Aaron was honest and upfront about the process. He was polite, respectful, explained anything I needed clarification on, and generally was a pleasure to work with. I am very glad that I hired them for this project."

"We are very pleased with the two bathrooms that were remodeled. Alvin has some great ideas, discuss with him ahead of time. One in particular, a 3/4 shower wall and opening the shower up to the ceiling in a tiny bathroom. It was simple but made a major difference in aesthetics as well as allowing the steam to dissipate quicker. We could not be happier. The tile work in both bathrooms is lovely and well done. Alvin and his crew were good at working clean. They used roll-out cardboard protection for our floors, hanging plastic sheeting to help keep dust down. They stayed on the job until it was done. It was a lot of work and we felt it was done within a reasonable time. Always have a final walk-through."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

The best trowel for penny tile is a 3/16-inch-by-5/32-inch V-notch trowel. Because of the small size of the penny tile, you want a trowel with small notches that can lay a thin layer of mortar on the surface you’re tiling. If the notches are too wide, you risk applying too thick of a layer of mortar, and it can squeeze out between the penny tiles.

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.

Common problems include cracks, loose tiles, and grout discoloration. Proper maintenance prevents many issues.

The lifespan of tile flooring can vary significantly based on the material and maintenance. Generally, tile flooring can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, but high-quality, well-maintained ceramic tile can last 75 to 100 years. To achieve a longer lifespan, you should clean the tiles and grout regularly, reseal the grout annually, keep the floor dry, and avoid placing extremely heavy items on it to prevent cracking. Choosing a high-quality tile (Grade 1) will also contribute to its longevity.

You can lay tile directly on a plywood countertop, but if it’s a high-traffic surface in a kitchen, it’s better to add a moisture-resistant base. Plywood is susceptible to moisture, so if dampness seeps through from the surface around the sink or where you prep food, it can cause the plywood to warp, leading to grout damage, cracked tiles, or mold growth under the surface.
