"My wife, I and daughter removed everything from the basement into the adjoining garage with the exception of empty heavy furniture and cabinets. The installer moved these items around himself. The job required laying down a leveling compound to smooth the surface in one room that took about one half a day. Overall the job took a total of two days to install about 500 square feet of flooring. The installer cleaned up and replaced the heavy items in the original locations. He did a great job and was very friendly."

Only Miracle Method uses our propietary chemical bonding agent to insure a durable finish and provide a five year warranty. Miracle Method will not introduce harsh chemicals into a home or business. We use only the highest quality materials available.
"The tub and sink refinishing went well; the technician was skillful, friendly, and very professional. At first I was delighted. The tub finish has held up well. Unfortunately the sink has not and it is a mess. After 13 months - which is one month past the warranty - the basin of the sink began to peel. I contacted the company and they said it would cost $250-$300 to redo since the warranty was up. As I was going to be overseas for the next several months and they gave no discount, I decided to wait. The sink has only become worse, continuing to peel. Recently when I felt I could afford the repair they quoted me $545 plus $95/hour for labor to remove the old finish! I consider the amount to be outrageous and the response to be thoroughly unprofessional."

With over 10 years of professional installation experience I expertly install new tile and make repairs in a clean timely manner for an affordable price! We also offer demolition!
"These guys were fantastic. We had replaced our kitchen tile without using Angi’s two years ago. They did a terrible job, not lining the tiles properly, not grouting properly, and they didn’t remove the issues at the base of the tiles, so overtime our tiles were cracking. The contractor had promised us he’d come back to finish the grouting when he left in Friday, but asked for payment. New homeowner mistake, I paid him. He never responded to my messages after that. ALV came in the same day I posted on Angi’s, gave a reasonable quote, and then bought the tiles we were looking at the next day. 3 days later, the project is complete, the grout finished, everything looks fantastic. 10/10 would use these guys again."

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.
