Smile Ricks Tile

We just used Rick's Tile for our lanai. You pick out the tile and grout at Lowes or Home Depot and Rick pickes it up and lays it for $2.50 a sq. ft. He supplies the thinset and did the job 3 days after our call. Very pleased. He advertises in the Daily Sun.

another Linda used E&J (407/375-6627), a subcontractor for Floormasters. They did a super job of fixing the subfloor, floating the tiles, etc. They came when scheduled and finished on time. The tile was set on a diagonal and is just beautiful.

One not to use is All-in-One Flooring -- doesn't show up on time, doesn't finish on time, dumps the residue down the drain (which ultimately clogs up the sewer), but his work looks good.

It just kicks the topic to the top of the thread pile.

A friend of mine used ALL Surface Rejuvenations Plus. She was able to pick her tile from there showroom the sf price was for everything the install sealing... etc they also gave her a 20 year warrentee on the sealing. Of course with the warrentee you have to use there cleaners and have your floors cleaned once a year with them but the work was amazeing so its worth it. I am actually getting ready to have them do my pool deck.
