Bathroom floors aren't supposed to go squish. We found water damage to our floor in the bathroom (caused by a leaking toilet, which Oscar found). He was able to come out quickly and get started. The job took three days. He was easy to work with, friendly, and helped us pick out the tile (particularly advice on what was suitable for bathroom floors).
Description of Work: Installed tile, repaired water damage to wall (42 sq feet) and underfloor in bathroom. Price did not include most materials, which I purchased separately.

Nice enough guy, but horrible tile setter. I had to have him redo several sections 4 or more times until he got it close enough for me to give up. For what he charged I should not have had to settle. He is unable to make proper miter cuts. I had to have the tile store cut the tile for him. He's sloppy and made a huge mess in my house. His grout work is almost as bad as his tile setting. When he realized I wasn't going to accept his normal level of work. He wanted to quit the project. Very unprofessional to say the least. I should have let him go. He's an amateur. I'm giving him a D even though the work, in the end, was acceptable. But only because I watched over him the entire time and forced him to redo sections over and over again. If I hadn't, I would have had to have given him an F.
Description of Work: Oscar partially removed my old counter top and poorly installed a new one on top of the remaining cement. People are way too kind here on Angie's List. There is no way this guy should have an A average. No way.

Response from OSCAR MELENDEZ TILE SERVICE
THIS PERSON WAS A VERY DIFFICULT PERSON TO WORK FOR. I TAKE MY JOB VERY SERIOUSLY AND AM PROUD OF MY WORK. NOW, I TRIED MY HARDEST TO SATISFY THIS EMPLOYER IN A JOB THAT HE BEGAN. I DID LEAVE THE PRIOR CEMENT BUT THAT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS IN GREAT CONDITION TO USE IT AGAIN. WE LEVELED IT OUT AND HE WAS PLEASED. MITER CUTS COMES SECOND NATURE TO ME, IT WAS HIS DECISION TO GET THEM CUT WHERE HE BOUGHT THEM. I DID CHANGE THE TILE ABOUT FOR TIMES BUT THAT WAS BECAUSE I DEVOTE MY SELF TO TRY TO SATISFY THE COSTUMER. I ALWAYS CLEAN UP THE WORK AREA AFTER MYSELF, AND HE WAS FAIR WARNED THAT SOME MESS COMES WITH THE JOB. OVERALL, I FELT THE JOB WAS WELL DONE AND WISH TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE PICTURES FOR YOU; HOWEVER, I CAN’T SEEM TO COME IN CONTACT WITH HIM. THE WORK WAS ORIGINALLY 2,200 FOR DEMOLITION AND INSTALLATION OF THREE DIFFERENT COUNTER TOPS WHICH HE AGREED TO. I DID THIS ABOUT FOR TIMES FOR HIM ON ONE OF THE COUNTER TOPS WHICH IS THE AREA HE STARTED DOING HIMSELF. EVEN SO, I STILL GAVE HIM A YEAR WARRANTY AND ASKED HIM TO CALL ME BACK IF HE WAS STILL NOT SATISFIED SO THAT I COULD FIX IT AT NO-ADDITIONAL CHARGE. I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS TIME TO TALK TO YOU, MY FUTURE POTENTIAL EMPLOYER, AND ENCOURAGE YOU TO LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE NOT PLEASED WITH THE WORK THAT I AM DOING FOR YOU. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ME ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE JOB THAT I AM DOING. I WILL DO MY BEST TO SATISFY YOUR NEEDS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME IN READING THIS RESPONSE.

I called Oscar for an estimate based on the reports on Angie's List. Oscar said he had an appointment in Glendale and would come to my house after he was finished. Oscar told me he would call me when he was on his way. Oscar never called me and did not show up for the estimate.
Description of Work: A tile job involving our fireplace.

Although the work he did was satisfactory, I did not come away with a good feeling about dealing with him. He was rushing so, that he rushed me. His attitude was a little funky also. He quoted me one price, then changed the price the day before we were going to begin the work. He kept asking me for money before the job was finished.
Description of Work: Oscar tiled my kitchen, laundry room, and bathroom.

Response from OSCAR MELENDEZ TILE SERVICE
LOL. I’M NOT SURE WHAT HE MEANS BY FUNKY BUT IT SOUNDS FUNNY, CAN’T BE ALL THAT BAD. I DID CHANGE THE PRICE, BUT I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT THIS WAS BECAUSE I DID NOT CHARGE HIM FOR THE DEMOLITION OF THE FLOOR IN THE BATHROOM IN MY PREVIOUS QUOTE, AND HE WAS OK WITH THAT, HE SAID HE WOULD CALL ME BACK. HE CONSULTED WITH SOMEONE ELSE TO DOUBLE CHECK THE PRICE. THEY SAID IT WAS A GOOD PRICE, AND HE ENDED UP CALLING ME BACK. THE JOB TOOK ABOUT THREE DAYS, AND ON THE THIRD DAY I LET HIM KNOW THAT THE JOB WAS GOING TO BE DONE, SO WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE PAYMENT. HE HAD TAKEN OFF AND ASKED ME TO CALL WHEN I WAS DONE, SO I DID. HE SAID HE WOULD BE BACK IN A FEW MINUTES, BUT HE NEVER SHOWED UP, AND I LEFT. I BELIEVE THAT THAT IS WHAT HE MEANT BY RUSHING. IT WASN’T MY INTENT TO MAKE HIM FEEL PRESSURED AND I’M SORRY HE TOOK IT THAT WAY. BUT I NEED TO GET PAID.

Oscar was on time, polite, patient when I didn't understand, and reasonably priced. He returned without delay to regrout as necessary as the grout dried and shrank.
Description of Work: He cleaned and recaulked moldy shower, regrouted kitchen counter on seam where wall meets counter (matched grout perfectly), installed new backsplash around bath sink (I supplied tile).

He was pleasant, probably charged a bit too much. After he left, I noticed a spot that could have been better applied. I am considering having him back to patch some tile after I have plumbing work done. I will ask him to recaulk this one area at that time.
Description of Work: Oscar stripped & recaulked bottom perimeter of 2 showers.
