The backsplash looks great and I think Michael did a great job. It was my own design and he was easy to work with as the design developed. He showed up late a couple of days and what was to be a 2 1/2 day job turned into 4 days. It sometimes took a couple of calls to get hold of him. But I do think he did a great job and would recommend his work.
Description of Work: Tiled the backsplash in my kitchen.

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

Imperior is a good company. They show up on time and work effectively to get the job done. We had no complaints with them because they were quite accurate and precise. That is what we like to see.
Description of Work: Imperial Tile fixed a leak in our shower and completely re-grouted it in a few hours. We paid one low cost for the materials and labor.

Michael was the only contractor who actually answered his phone (as opposed to leaving a v/m). He came to our house the next day to provide an estimate; we hired him on the spot. He did the job a week later, on time and done very well.
Description of Work: The grout in our relatively new walk in shower was lifting out, and the tiles were beginning to pop out. We needed to have the entire floor retiled and regrouted.

The day I called Michael, he was able to come out and give us an estimate. He was so friendly that I didn't even look at anyone else. He was booked out for over a week, but since it was a small job he said he would try and fit us in. We needed to reschedule a few times since, but he always let us know in advance. Even though we said that we didn't care about matching the new tile to the old tile, he managed to find a piece that is nearly an exact match - and brought in handfuls of samples for me to review. He did his job quickly, quietly, and neatly. I would certainly use him again. He also does bathroom remodeling.
Description of Work: Caulked around tub and walls; filled holes after shower door was removed; custom fit tile to replaced broken tile (that had no backing).

Michael came right out to do the estimate. Showed up on time, gave an estimate promptly. Ended up going with someone else who also had good feedback and gave a substantially lower estimate.
Description of Work: Michael gave an estimate on doing the floor, walls and tub/shower of a new bathroom.

Response from IMPERIAL TILE SERVICE
I ACTUALLY FIND THIS GRADE AND THIS WOMAN QUITE AMUSING. FIRST OF ALL THE WORK SHE WANTED DONE WAS 1X1 SHEET STOCK TILE AND SUBWAY IN SHOWER WITH VERY INTRICATE AND TIME CONSUMING LAYOUT! THE AMAZING THING ABOUT THIS JOB THAT YOU ALL MUST KNOW IS THE F SHE GRADED ME ON THE PRICE IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD, BECAUSE THE CONTRACTOR THAT DID THE JOB IS A PERSONAL AQUAITANCE OF MINE THAT I'VE KNOWN FOR YEARS AND HE DID THE JOB FOR $3000. AND AFTER I SPOKE WITH HIM WHEN HE COMPLETED THE JOB, HE STATED THAT HE WAS REGRETTING THAT HE DID NOT CHARGE AT LEAST A THOUSAND DOLLARS MORE AND THE WORK TOOK HIM A WEEK LONGER THAN EXPECTED BECAUSE OF THE INTRICATE WORK. ALSO, MEMBER WAS CONSTANTLY OVER HIS SHOULDER IN A NON TRUSTING MANNER ALL THRU THE JOB. BUT I DIGRESS, GOD BLESS AND GOOD LUCK TO ALL, LIFE IS TO SHORT. : )

Job 1. Michael was extremely fastidious in his approach to my house and the job itself. He was extremely knowledgeable and pointed out issues we hadn't even noticed before he began work. We're very pleased with the results and will be using him again! Job 2. OUTSTANDING JOB, VERY CAREFULLY PLANNED OUT AND EXECUTED. MICHAEL REALLY WORKED HARD ON THIS ONE, AND THE FINISHED JOB IS BEAUTIFUL. HE'S VERY CAREFUL ABOUT KEEPING THINGS CLEAN DURING THE JOB.
Description of Work: Job 1. Michael completely replaced a deteriorated floor in a tiled shower, general grout touch-up, and recaulked everywhere.($450-7/12/06) Job 2. TILED A CONCRETE BASEMENT FLOOR WITH 12' TILES. LOTS OF CORNERS, SEVERAL POSTS, AND A COUPLE OF OTHER CHALLENGES.($3300)

PREVIOUS CONTRACTORS WORK WAS VERY POOR AND MICHEAL CAME OUT AND MADE SEVERAL RECOMMENDATIONS. ESTIMATED 4 DAYS OF WORK AND IT TOOK 7 DAYS AND HE DIDN'T CHARGE A DIME MORE THAN THE ORIGINAL ESTIMATE. VERY THROUGH, HANDS ON, WOULD RECOMMEND HIM IN A HEARTBEAT TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS. HE'LL GET THE JOB DONE AND HE'LL DO IT RIGHT.
Description of Work: Had a kitchen area of 250 sq ft. in which he replaced all the tile work and sub floor with cement board and all new tile including 9 pieces of art deco in the corners.

MICHAEL WAS PROMPT AT RETURNING CALLS AND ADVISING IF HE WOULD BE LATE. THIS WAS APPRECIATED. HE WAS VERY CUSTOMER ORIENTED AND WHEN HE CAME OUT TO GIVE AN ESTIMATE HE WAS CANDID ENOUGH TO ADVISE ME NOT TO REPAIR SEVERAL KITCHEN FLOOR TILES (WHICH I HAD ASKED HIM TO DO) BECAUSE HE SAID THAT OVERALL THE KITCHEN FLOOR WAS DONE IMPROPERLY (WE HAD JUST MOVED IN) AND I SHOULD JUST SAVE MY MONEY AND HAVE THE WHOLE THING DONE CORRECTLY - OTHERWISE I WOULD JUST BE CALLING HIM AGAIN A FEW MONTHS LATER FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. VERY GOOD AT TAKING THE TIME TO EXPLAIN HIS WORK.
Description of Work: REMOVE 2 CERAMIC SOAP DISHES. REHANG CERAMIC TOWEL BAR. INSTALL CERAMIC TOWEL RING. REGROUT BATHROOMS AND APPLY CAULK AS NEEDED. SEAL KITCHEN COUNTER GROUT.

EXCELLENT. THE PRICE WAS EXACTLY AS ESTIMATED, AND THIS WAS AN INVOLVED JOB. HE WAS VERY ACCOMMODATING OF OUR BUSY SCHEDULE.
Description of Work: WE NEEDED TO REPLACE THE TILE AND WALL BOARD IN AN OLDER BATHROOM, DUE TO THE SHOWER AREA LEAKING. MIKE REMOVED TILE FROM BATH AREA, REPLACED AND SEALED THE CEMENT BOARD, PICKED UP AND INSTALLED OUR NEW TILE, GROUTED, AND CLEANED UP WELL. VERY NICE, PROFESSIONAL WORK.

MIKE WAS ON TIME, VERY POLITE A DELIGHT TO HAVE IN OUR HOME. THE PRICE WAS EXTREMELY REASONABLE CONSIDERING HE NEEDED TO STAY THREE FULL DAYS TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE FROM THE PREVIOUS CONTRACTOR. UNLIKE THE OTHER CONTRACTORS HE DID NOT COMPLAIN, CHARGE US MORE, OR GET FRUSTRATED. TILING IS REALLY AN ART AND MIKE IS A PICASSO
Description of Work: MIKE SAVED OUR BATHROOMS. THE CONTRACTOR WE FIRST HIRED WAS UNABLE TO HANG OUR SOAP DISHES AND TOWEL RACK PROPERLY. MIKE CALLED US RIGHT BACK CAME OUT AND GAVE US A QUOTE. HE STUCK TO THE QUOTE, SHOWED UP ON TIME, CLEANED UP. MIKE IS AN EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL INDIVIDUAL. THE JOB WAS MUCH LARGER THEN JUST HANGING SOAP DISHES. THE JOB INCLUDED FIXING SHOWER FLOOR, PULLING OUT SEVERAL TILES, RE-STUDDING BEHIND TILES. FIXING ALL THE MISSING GROUT AND CAULKING. HE WAS VERY METICULOUS HE SPENT THREE DAYS ON THE JOB AND EVERYTHING CAME OUT PERFECT.
