Q: Does removing tile damage the subfloor?

• <div><p>No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn&rsquo;t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.</p><p>If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it&rsquo;s in good enough condition to lay new tile.</p></div>

Q: Can you caulk over old caulk?

• <div><p>If you caulk over old caulk, your new application won&rsquo;t stick, which is why it&rsquo;s important to completely remove the old seal. However, once you apply the new caulk properly, you can get 5 to 10 years out of the new seal around the tub. </p></div>

Q: Do repairs include color matching?

• <div><p>Yes, most professionals match the stucco color to ensure a seamless appearance. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: Can you remove bathroom tiles without damaging the waterproofing?

• <div><p>You may damage the waterproofing sealant if you try to just remove a small number of bathroom tiles for a repair job. However, if you&rsquo;re removing all the tiles on the walls or floor, you can redo the waterproofing when installing new tile. To minimize risk of water damage for replacing just a small amount of tiles, you&rsquo;ll need to apply sealant and reapply it every six months to two years.</p></div>

Q: How long do porcelain tiles last?

• <div><p>Porcelain tiles can last 60 years or longer. With high-quality tiles and proper installation, your porcelain tiles may even outlive you, making them well worth the initial investment.</p><p>To help your porcelain tiles last longer, you should clean and maintain them regularly. You don&rsquo;t need any harsh chemicals to get the job done. Rather, use a cloth, hot water, and mild detergent. And don&rsquo;t forget to learn <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-clean-tile-and-grout.htm">how to clean floor tile grout</a>, as that&rsquo;s just as important as tile maintenance.</p></div>

They did a great job replacing my front home window. The window turned out great even though the window design I initially wanted was not available for to my window size. I'll be using them again for up coming home renovation/repairs.

These guys do a great job. They repair my cars like I would if I had the expertise, i.e., they do the necessary work and don't sell you services you don't need. They found my problem and repaired them.

They completely messed up the service, and we had to get a new undercarriage for our car. They did pay for the labor for the repairs, but we had to pay for the parts which cost us an additional $700.00. I would not recommend them to anyone.
