"We had such a great experience with our fence installation! The team was professional, reliable, and really paid attention to the details. Everything was done efficiently, they kept the area clean, and communication was great throughout the whole process. Our new fence looks amazing and feels super sturdy, and it completely transformed our yard. We?re so happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for quality work!!"

"The owner at All Valley Solutions was so generous with his time and expertise. He took time out of his busy job schedule to cut some tile into smaller pieces so that I could continue the progress on my backyard project. He responds to phone calls and is easy to get in contact with. He is professional, polite, kind, and helpful. I am hoping to hire his company in the future for a home construction and possible remodel."

"Pablo Aguayo, we definitely used him.  The matter of fact he just completed the job for us last week.  He was remodeling our new set.  He remodeled our desks, countertops and our outside shade as a matter of fact so he did an awning for us as well.  We have used him in the past.  He had a fast crew.  They work around our new stuff without creating too much noise that were crashed.  The job is always completed on time and they are very professional.  Pricing is very fair.  We intent to use him in the very near future."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

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). 

Whether you use a brush or roller depends on the size, shape, and amount of tiles. Rollers are easier to maneuver over large areas and can apply a more even coat of paint in a shorter time frame with no visible brushstrokes. Brushes are best for precision work, particularly in very small areas. If you don't want visible brushstrokes on your painted tiles, you can paint details with small foam brushes instead of bristled paint brushes.

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.

Lack of durability is the most significant downside of painting tile. However, a painted tile backsplash doesn't see the same kind of action as, say, painted flooring tiles. For backsplashes, the durability of the finish is crucial because they often require cleaning. However, you can minimize the durability problem by using mild cleaners and water on the painted surfaces.

Popular options include ceramic, porcelain, stone, and glass tiles, chosen based on the area (bathroom, kitchen) and desired aesthetic.
