Installer Jay

PDFPrintE-mail

Well, our installer Jay Homovich is back with us and is busy on a job in Bishopville, MD taking care of a master bathroom floor and shower.  In our first photo we can see Jay has taken care of all the prep work in running our tile backer on the shower walls and installing the diagonal/suspended bench.  Notice the green waterproof liner on top of all the seams in the tile backer and over the entire bench.

In this shot we see that Jay has installed the shower floor tiles which are a 2" x 2" mosaic.  By getting this completed Jay is all ready to start running the shower walls which are a 12" x12" tile

And finally, I wanted to include a shot of Jay himself (got this one while he was blinking/sorry Jay) as he is cleaning up the grout overtop of the 18" x 18" tile floor.

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...
