"Please find a different contractor! We hired Brett’s company to replace flooring in our basement that was water damaged. The original quote included installing flooring and drywall repair. We had to stop the install and start over two times due to issues. The first issue was the way the flooring was being laid. Standard wood/laminate flooring should be laid out in a scattered/various pattern using planks cut in multiple lengths, however the install guy was cutting the wood in only 2 sizes and laying it down in a repetitive pattern. It looked horrible. We asked Brett to come out to the job and see for himself because we were concerned with the quality of the work, but he never came out. When the install guy started over, we realized he had not put down underlayment which was clearly included in the contract. They were placing luxury vinyl plank directly on the concrete slab with only a moisture barrier. Again, we had to have them stop the job and start over to do it properly. Brett still did not come out to the job site. We did not end up getting the drywall repair completed and asked him to remove that cost from our invoice, but he said we would still need to pay the full price because if he reworked the contract it would go up to account for starting the job over. Even though both times the job had to start over were as a result of his guys negligence. I’ve attached a picture that shows the first problem with the install. We’ve had flooring replaced and installed several times in previous homes and have never experienced someone attempting to install it in the way his guy was. There was no quality control on Bretts part. The install was done incorrectly multiple times and it could have been avoided if Brett had taken the time to make sure the job was being done properly. To make matters worse, we were penalized for his crews mistake and it left us feeling stressed out and ripped off. Please save yourselves the stress and find someone else to do your floors."

I was very pleased with all the projects completed."

"I had a terrible experience with EXCEPTIONAL RESTORATION. From start to finish, their service was unprofessional, unresponsive, and completely lacking in accountability. Not only did they fail to resolve the issue they were hired for, but their communication was poor and their handling of the situation caused more stress than relief. Despite multiple attempts to get updates and cooperation, they showed no urgency or respect for the damage done to my property. I regret ever trusting them with such an important job and would strongly advise others to look elsewhere. You expect a restoration company to bring peace of mind — instead, this company brought me nothing but frustration and loss of time and money."

"In the past, we’ve typically hired general contractors based on solicitations at our home. This has unfortunately resulted in more than a few misses. But we went through Angi this time and the pro we chose, Omar’s General Contracting, was definitely a hit. Omar was professional and communicative. His crew was great. On time, very tidy, reasonably priced, flexible, and a perfect finished product. We hired them on Sunday and they started on Monday. In two days, Omar and his crew were able to basically rebuild our entire eat-in kitchen ceiling following a large plumbing project. I honestly think it looks better now than it did before the work. Amazing. We wont be needing referrals for general contractors in the future. We’ve found our company. Thank you for the great referral, Angi and team."

"We are doing some remodeling on our kitchen. We did everything except the backsplash. We finally found the tiles we wanted (4" hexagons) and we tried lowes but if we didn't buy the tiles there, they wouldn't do it. (Lowe's also didn't have these tiles!). We came to angi and we found zvision remodeling and Eddy was the person who came to install our beautiful backsplash. He was at our house for 4 days. (He came in over the weekend, too). He took his time and did a great job! Highly recommend! Thank you, Eddy!!!"

You can install new tile over an existing backsplash, but pros recommend taking the old material down first. Layering tile creates a gap where moisture can collect and makes it harder for the new adhesive to bond. Removing the original backsplash gives you a flat, clean surface, prevents interference with outlets or countertop space, and helps the finished project last longer.
To prepare a painted wall for tile, fill any cracks or holes in the existing paint. Use sandpaper to create an even, slightly rough surface for ideal adhesion. Next, gently wipe the wall with a damp cloth to remove dust, grease, or debris. Finally, apply a bonding primer before attaching the tile.
Gluing a backsplash is an effective installation method when you use the correct adhesive. Use cement-based or thin-set mortar along with mastic as needed to secure ceramic tiles. This method provides a strong, durable bond and is ideal for glass and stone installations when surfaces are properly cleaned and prepared. Adhering tiles with the proper adhesive ensures a robust and long-lasting finish.
Measuring your backsplash area is essential to determine the exact amount of tile needed. Begin by measuring the height and width of the backsplash in feet, then multiply these dimensions to calculate the total square footage. Do not adjust for small outlets or minor cutouts; only subtract the space occupied by large windows or significant obstructions. Finally, add 10% extra to account for waste, ensuring you order the precise quantity required.
