Another Busy Week

PDFPrintE-mail

Well, today I thought I would write about the various jobs we have going on and more importantly feature all the good workmen that we have taking care of business out in the field.  In the end all of our hard work boils down to the actual workmanship.  These men are all craftsmen and take a lot of pride in their work as they well should since their workmanship is second to none.  Below are various shots of different jobs that we have been involved in this week.  Things here at McAllister & Son are busy, that's for sure!

Waves of Tile

By the time I caught up with Jason he was getting the grouting completed.  I will simply let the pictures...

Breaking the Weather

When our recent customer found water coming in his back door he realized that he needed something besides the hardwood flooring as a "weather break" at this area.  We were happy to accommodate by cutting this maple flooring back to an approximate 24" width and inserting these beautiful pebbles.  We then installed our waterproof, mold proof, stain proof grout called Spectra...

A Ceramic Area Rug

Well, after taking most of the summer off from blogging, I figured with fall in the air it was a good time as any to get back to writing and posting.  Today I thought I would feature a Hotel Lobby floor that we tackled in the town of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. This hotel lobby floor was upgraded by using  non-slip 12" x 12" porcelain tiles with a simple border to create this "area rug" effec...
