"I contacted J.D. Taylor right after New Years in the first week of 2012 and in a couple of days he returned my call and made an appointment to look at the job and make an estimate. He was thorough in measurements and taking notes as we talked about what I wanted to have done. Later he sent me the estimate with bullet points that he had captured on the details. Included in the task was pouring a concrete floor into what had been a dirt floor and this was done within the confines of the structure. Sections of the wood siding that were in bad shape were replaced and repairs with bondo were done for a few areas that needed minor patching. The non-functioning garage door was replaced with an electric garage door with electronic garage key, and the door opening on the side was fitted with a standard door frame and door with lock. The paint on the outside of the garage was prepared and coated with primer and top coat. One of the details that did not get captured in the notes (and that I did not pay attention to until I did not see it at job completion) was for the addition of a workbench at the end of the garage. Mr. Taylor had his workman come out and add this the next week and only billed me $210 for this work (this is included in the $6160).
(In addition and not included in the $6160, Mr. Taylor contacted an electrical contractor he often works with and that company took care of supplying new wire for a dedicated 20 amp service from the outside house fuse box to the garage.)
I am pleased with the thoroughness, honesty and attention to detail that this contractor displayed. I am quite pleased with the quality of my new garage and would in the future hire him again."

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts

You can, in theory, tile your fireplace hearth with most tiles. However just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. For example, it’s much better to use unglazed tiles because glazed tiles are more resistant to cracking under extreme heat. Porcelain is more heat-resistant than ceramic, but you can still design the hearth as you like by putting the most heat-resistant tiles directly under the fire and, if it matches your style, add more decorative tiles further from the center of the fire. 

Larger tiles can be difficult to install because they’re heavier and bulkier than their smaller counterparts, which makes them harder to haul around and put in place. Plus, if you don’t install the tiles correctly, they could crack or break. For these reasons, it’s best to hire a professional for large-format tile installation.

For professional labor and materials, it would cost between $6,000 and $28,000 to install 1,000 square feet of Saltillo tile flooring. If that’s out of your budget, you could consider laying the tiles yourself or choosing a less expensive type of flooring. For example, vinyl flooring costs just $2 to $7 per square foot, so for a 1,000-square-foot space, you’d pay $2,000 to $7,000.

Taking the time to properly prepare your tile backsplash before painting and treating it with care afterward is the best way to ensure its longevity. While the tile can last for the life of the home, you may have to repaint it after a few years. However, using only mild cleanser and water to keep it clean can maximize the paint's lifespan.

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.
