The thing that impressed me the most was his attention to installation details, ie., grout and sealer, removing molding, no tile over vinyl, fully tiling under the appliances, removing existing coverings and hauling them away, and completely cleaning the house after the job is done. WOW!!
I hesitate to divulge the company at this point because the job hasn't even been started yet. Next week we'll get to inspect a job he completed using our identical "porcelain." I promise when the job is completed to my total satisfaction, I will announce the name.  |
Posting your experience is a great contribution to the rest of us! At the risk of prying, might you also give us a per square foot price you pay for the job. I would much rather see that than to know the name of the contractor. Then, if I think the price is good for good work, I'd send you a private message to ask the name of the company.
The first reply to your post which mentioned Lowes and Home Depot did not mention the fact that they both have some very capable installers who do the same quality work as the good small companies, but, as often as not, for appreciably less. I can attest to that with both ceramic tile and hardwood flooring jobs. Thanks, and good luck!
