"Pyramid was recommended to us by a friend who has done a lot of remodeling and has priced granite in many locations in the area. She was right--after shopping around for a granite or quartz countertop for our guest bathroom remodel, Pyramid Granite had the best selection AND best price. We were looking for something that would coordinate with existing tile in the bathroom and it was easy to find several choices at Pyramid. They were very professional, helped us make a decision, came out to measure and delivered the product ON TIME. We ultimately settled on granite and our countertop is gorgeous--we will definitely be coming back when we remodel our primary bathroom! Ask for Temon--he is great!"
"We used Samâ s Home Improvement to create our backsplash. He had a good price, and we were very impressed with his subcontractor, Luis Quispe, who actually did the tile work. He understood our plans, gave some suggestions, and was flexible with changes. The end result is fabulous."
"Our experience with Adrian and his crew was excellent. Frankly, we had had trouble finding someone to do this work when HomeAdvisor advised us to reach out to Adrian. He got back to us right away, got us an estimate and got us on his schedule. Considering no one else had even responded, we were amazed by the service we received. We were very impressed by the work the team did. They took care with every aspect of the installation, making sure the tiles were square to each other, getting the grout right, getting the tile right up to the edges of our old laundry room. The room looks much bigger, brighter and frankly just more usable than it did before they did their work. I recommend them highly. Anyone who can get CCR to do their work will be very pleased."
"Despite complications encountered in the course of the installation (unanticipated ceiling joist and wall studs), the workmen, did an excellent job with necessary workarounds. Took them longer than expected, but they were perfectly agreeable, intent on seeing the job completed well."
"The original project I hired them for was to replace leaky faucets in both the kitchen and bathroom. Frank, the owner, was responsive and professional. They scheduled the work promptly and showed up on time. Unexpected issues were discovered that required a second trip and additional work. They communicated everything clearly and the additional costs were handled separately and transparently. They also cleaned up after the work was done. I would hire them again."
"The marble is beautiful and close to the 4 year old sink marble as you can get from different slabs!! Always on time and staff and installers were professional and friendly!!! Highly recommend."
"This guys are the real deal when it comes to do floor restorations. From day one, they came in, removed the old floor and by date 3 the entire floor was completed. They are very friendly, professional, and transparent. Communication was great and there were no last minute issues whatsoever so ever. Price was also a big plus. I would recommend them 110%. They are super awesome!"
"Fantastic experience with Brett and his crew. Arrived on time, covered all the floors and countertops before starting, discussed a few design details, then got the job done in 2 days. Absolute professional installation of my large kitchen backsplash (approx 100 sq ft), every tile set perfect, even the difficult cuts. Cleaned up every area after job completed. Great value for what I paid. Will definitely consider hiring again for other projects around the house."
"We had an excellent experience working with CRS General Construction Group LLC, owned by Damian Ramirez. From start to finish, the quality of work and professionalism were outstanding.
Damian and his team completely transformed our basement into a beautiful home gym, installing the flooring, walls, and lighting with great attention to detail. The space looks amazing and was finished with high-quality craftsmanship.
They also built custom closets in multiple rooms, installed water supply lines, and set up a secure gate lock system for our property. Every project was handled with skill, care, and precision.
Damian is reliable, knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with. It?s clear that he takes pride in his work and truly cares about customer satisfaction.
If you are looking for a contractor who can handle remodeling, construction, and home improvement projects of any kind, I highly recommend CRS General Construction Group LLC. We will definitely be using them again for future projec"

Backsplash Installation questions, answered by experts
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.
The lifespan of bathroom tile can be 50 years or more, depending on proper installation and regular maintenance. A well-done tile job, whether it's a new installation or a retiling project, can last for many decades. To lengthen the life of your tile, it's best to have it installed by a professional and to perform regular maintenance. This includes routine cleaning, resealing, and regrouting as needed. With proper care, you can expect your tile to last 10 years or more before needing major repairs or retiling, especially in high-traffic areas where tiles can wear out more quickly.
Impact, water infiltration, or shifting subfloors often cause damage. Regular inspections help prevent significant issues.
On average, tiling a bathroom involves about 12 hours of labor, usually spread over two to three days to accommodate prep work and curing times. A professional tiler can often complete the installation in 6 to 8 hours, whereas a DIYer might take 10 to 16 hours. The total project time is influenced by factors like the bathroom layout, tile type, and necessary prep work, such as removing old tile. The process includes specific timelines for different areas; for example, tiling a floor takes about six hours, while a shower area can take six to ten hours. It is essential to allow for adequate curing time—typically 24 hours each—for the mortar, grout, and caulk, which is why the project extends over several days.
To maintain tile and grout, clean the surfaces regularly with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and wipe up spills promptly to prevent buildup. It is also important to reseal the grout every 1-2 years to maintain its durability.
