Getting Around.....

Yesterday making my rounds I thought I would post a simple blog showing the different jobs that we have going right now.  Our first picture shows Installer Brooks working in an upstairs Master Bathroom Tub Surround in South Bethany Beach, DE.  Brooks is just getting started on running up a Terrazzo tile (12" x 1 2") on the main backwall of this tub area.

Next I checked in on Jason who was busy getting going at another kitchen backsplash down in West Ocean City, MD.  We don't often go down into Ocean City but this homeowner elected to employ our services in adding this elegant looking glass between their countertops and wall cabinets.

I then dropped in on Shane and Josh who are busy at a new home here in Fenwick Island, DE.  Shane is seen here carrying some tile backer up to the master bathroom while Josh is getting some of the underlayment (Ditra Matting) installed in the Foyer Hallway.  Later, Josh & Shane will be installing a natural stone in a 12" x 12" called "Adelia".

Our college guy Tommy was also busy stocking this same job with lots of tile and setting materials.  Looks like this big guy isn't phased by the steps or hard work (check out those calves)!

Finally I stopped in our warehouse manager Terry, who has been recruited to help out at a job in North Bethany Beach, assisting us in meeting our Memorial Day deadlines.  Notice to Terry's right is a door leading out to a deck.  This door is actually inside the master shower!

Chicago Reclaimed Brick

Recently we completed another kitchen floor.  This one however, was a bit different as we installed a used brick as specified from the job-site's designer, Mark Showell of Mark Showell Interiors (www.markshowellinteriors.com).  This used brick had been reclaimed, cut with a band saw to a 3/8" thickness (for flooring) and shipped out from Chicago.  Our job was simply to install these fine...

Justin's Beach House

Recently we completed a job that I considered as so much more than just a job.  We were chosen to be a part of a very special building project called the Justin's Beach House Project.  Justin W. Jennings was a young man who diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in July of 1988.  This news came to Justin just one month prior to entering his freshman year at Penn State.  Though he was very much...

Waves of Tile

Recently we completed another kitchen backsplash.  This particular tile is a bit on the unique side of things since it is fashioned in the form of a wave or a scroll look.  Our installer Jason was tested, but proved once again to be the better when it came to installing this natural stone. 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...
