"Joe gave a reasonable quote based on pictures of where I needed to have tiles replaced.. He was easy to schedule with and contacted me a day before to confirm. The work was well done and looks so good I cannot tell the repairs from original! I would hire Tile & Grout Solutions again and recommend to anyone."

"We worked with Roberta, who acted as the project manager and provided design input. She met us at Dal-tile and helped us select a beautiful granite. She also arranged the initial measurement, templates and followed up to resolve some minor issues. The installation was completed on-time and the cost was the same as the initial estimate. We encountered some minor issues, but Roberta had them addressed very quickly to our complete satisfaction. I'd recommend Solidstone and especially Roberta to anyone looking for granite countertops. She was wonderful. A couple of pointers: 1. If you need corbels to support counter overhangs, order them early and have them installed before the granite arrives and 2. Think about access to electrical outlets and arrange to have holes drilled in the coountertop to pass electrical cords through.
"An excellent job. Patrick helped me find samples of wood I like and we ended up using a handscraped walnut which has been both beautiful and durable. We looked for our own tile at various local suppliers and had him install it in the kitchen and bathrooms. We put in porcelain tile which is also terrific. The job was professionally done and at a competitive price - what more can you ask for? "
"My bathtub was stuck in the 60’s. The tile was pink and the tub was peeling. Michael came out, was incredibly professional and gave a reasonable quote. His work far exceeded my expectations! I feel like I took a time machine and jumped to a modern spa. I absolutely love it!!!! We are refinishing our kitchen countertops next and Michael will be our first call."
"They do a good job with quoting the granite counter fabrication, tear-out of old counters, etc. They were much less conscientious with the backsplash, and basically did not do what they quoted, which led to a series of mistakes and a bad outcome. They quoted using 1/4 Hardy backer board behind the back splash, but cut corners and installed the backsplash tile over the old lumpy sheet rock, by using too thick an adhesive/mortar base. This led to an uneven tile application with high and low tiles, which would have been avoided if they did what was quoted. the back splash had to be corrected by the homeowner after they left, in addition to the cutouts for outlets, which were not adequately precise in size or location. I would not recommend them unless you are capable of fixing their mistakes. They will not reply to you after they have been paid. Their number one priority was completing the job in one day, irrespective of quality. Too bad, showing up 1.5 hr late and cutting corners contributed to a poor outcome. They could have done better and earned a 5-Star review. With regrets."
Popular options include ceramic, porcelain, stone, and glass tiles, chosen based on the area (bathroom, kitchen) and desired aesthetic.
The number of boxes of tile you need depends entirely on the amount of tile in each box or case. Different manufacturers package their tiles differently, and boxes contain different amounts of tile depending on the size, shape, and material. Often, the amount of area that a case will cover is listed in the product description. To calculate the number of boxes you need, take the total square feet of the space and divide it by the number of square feet the box will cover.
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.
Pool remodel costs are pricey, so you want to make sure you do it right. The best pool tile for you is one that looks great and fits your budget. If you have your heart set on a particular tile but can’t afford to tile your whole pool in that style, consider tiling only a small area or portion of your pool with specialty tile.
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.
