"This company was hired by Hillsborough county to renovate my home.It was a program for low income and disabled women. Not only did they not finish the work some of the work that they did was terrible. Please see pictures. the bathroom floor is a mess. They would not replace all the tiles. Therefore the time does not match. Plus it was not grouted right and is loose and possible damage to the subflooring. The tub was not caulked. There is black grouting used when most of it was done in white. The toilet is loose and no caps. The toilet seat broke within two weeks of replacing it and she said no way would she replace it.Thee siding was never finished. The kitchen flooring is already cracking. They broke tiles and put pieces in the place of it. Drywall repair is horrible. She will not respond to any of my calls. $3,000 was paid for air conditioning and it hasn't worked. I live in Florida and I have only a small unit in my bedroom. I am suffering. I had no heat all winter. The 3000 dollar unit does not work. The house was tented for termites with a five year warranty. I am seeing signs of termites. So far the roof is ok.II was told that I would have warranties I was provided none. I have a lien on my house for 10 years for work that was never finished and the quality of some of the work was just terrible. I have tried to contact Katina president of fresh start development of Hillsborough county she will not take my calls. I am a disabled widow and she has treated me terribly. If she says that I did not make my home accessible it is a lie. The head person was given a key and the work still has not been finished. it's going on 2 years I can't afford an attorney and she knows that.that's why she refuses to finish the work I would not hire this company for anything. Buyer beware!!!!"

Quality and Service the Old Fashion Way "With Pride"
Quality and Service the Old Fashion Way "With Pride"
Professional installation in an average-sized room (approximately 150 square feet) typically requires one to two full workdays. Larger spaces or projects involving texture removal may extend to three or four days. Additional time may be needed for painting or staining if not included in the initial installation. Weather conditions can affect drying times for adhesives and finishes, potentially extending the overall project timeline.
Beadboard features narrow vertical planks with rounded ridges ("beads") running between grooves, creating a traditional, detailed appearance. Shiplap consists of wider horizontal boards with overlapping edges that create distinctive shadow lines between panels. Beadboard offers a more formal, classic aesthetic often associated with cottage or Victorian styles, while shiplap provides a more contemporary or rustic look popular in farmhouse and coastal designs.
Beadboard can work well in humid environments when appropriate materials are selected. Vinyl or PVC beadboard offers superior moisture resistance for bathrooms, laundry rooms, and other high-humidity spaces. Traditional wood beadboard requires thorough sealing with moisture-resistant paint or clear finishes to prevent warping or mold growth. MDF beadboard generally performs poorly in damp locations and should be avoided in these applications.
Beadboard can be installed directly over popcorn ceilings provided the existing texture is firmly attached and the ceiling structure is sound. However, testing for asbestos is essential for popcorn ceilings installed before the 1980s. Professional texture removal costs $1.30 to $2.50 per square foot, while asbestos remediation runs significantly higher at $3 to $7 per square foot. Direct installation over popcorn texture may affect the final appearance and requires careful planning for fixture integration.
Regular maintenance involves gentle dusting with a soft brush attachment on your vacuum or a microfiber duster to prevent dirt accumulation in grooves. For deeper cleaning, lightly dampen a soft cloth with a mild cleaning solution appropriate for your beadboard material. Avoid excessive moisture, particularly with wood or MDF installations. Painted beadboard may require occasional touch-ups or repainting every 5-7 years, while stained wood might need resealing periodically to maintain its protective finish.
