Everything went great. Even though Zekreations doesn't usually take on big flooring jobs, I really wanted Zeke and his team because they had done good work previously during a bathroom remodel and they had experience with the slate tile we were planning to use. Zeke taped off every doorway to contain dust during the old floor tile. The demo and cleanup was fast. Zeke planned the layout meticulously to ensure the tile would be a highlight for the space rather than a distraction. The install went off without a hitch. The flooring looks great and we couldn't be happier with the result.
Description of Work: Zeke and Roger completed a big slate floor tile installation for our remodel. They first removed approximately 300 square feet of builder installed ceramic tile and then installed 800 square feet of large slate tiles.

Zeke is the owner of Zekreations. He and his employee, Roger do excellent work. Zeke pays a lot attention to detail and focuses on making sure the finish is perfect. Zeke was a great help in finalizing the design elements of the pool bath. Even though we'd already picked the style and finishes for the remodel, he offered several ideas that we incorporated into the final design. I'd already done most of the demolition of the old bathroom, so they were able to start on removing and redoing the shower floor. They completed that very quickly and moved to installing the new backer boards on walls and then the subway tile. The subway tile required a a lot of attention to detail to ensure that each row was straight and level. Zeke made his own spacers to ensure the spacing and was meticulous in making sure each row was exact. Several times there were small sections of the wall tile that didn't come out to Zeke's high standards so he would remove those sections and redo them. The subway tile made for slow going, but it looks perfect. It could not have come out any better. Once the slate floor was installed, they quickly finished the rest of the bath room. In the end they finished on time and the bath looks fantastic. When we started the kitchen and great room remodel we got a few quotes for the floor work. Even though Zekreations was not the cheapest bidder, we knew they had experience with our slate tile (from the bathroom remodel) and they would do a great job. They started on the agreed date. I had already removed the old kitchen and cleared out all the furniture so the room was ready to go. Somehow they were able to remove approximately 600 sq ft of the existing ceramic tile from the kitchen in one day. The next day they began laying tile. Zeke took his time planning the layout of the tile to ensure it would look great in the room. Over the next three days they put down about 1100 sq ft of slate tile. My wife and I had picked out a very dark grout which required a lot of additional effort to install and clean. Even so, they finished on time and the floor looks awesome.
Description of Work: Zekreations completed a remodel of our pool bath earlier this year which included redoing the shower pan and tiling the entire bathroom. We used slate on the floor and 2"x3" subway tile on the walls. Zeke and Roger completed the tile installation and finished the bathroom including installing the vanity and fixtures. They painted the room and trim. This summer, we went back to Zekreations when we started our Kitchen and great room remodel. I removed the old kitchen and then Zeke and Roger pulled up the old tile flooring and installed the new slate floor. In all they removed ~600 sq ft of ceramic tile and put down ~1100 sq ft of slate.
