THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND GREAT TO WORK WITH. OUR 50'S PEACH BATHROOM IS NOW A CONTEMPORARY WHITE WITHOUT HAVING TO REMOVE AND REPLACE THE FULLY FUNCTIONAL TUB AND TILE SURROUND. THEY CALLED TO CONFIRM THE APPOINTMENT AHEAD OF TIME AND EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS IN SERVICE. ITS A SMELLY PROJECT BUT WE WERE THRILLED WITH ANDY'S WORK.
Description of Work: THEY REFINISHED OUR TUB, A 7' HIGH TILE SURROUND, AND A SEPARATE, TILE COUNTERTOP. THEY REMOVED THE GLASS DOOR TRACKS AND REPAIRED THE TILE.

THE TUB WAS BADLY PEELING, MORE OF A PAINT JOB THAN A REFINISHING JOB. DAN SIMPLY GAVE ME THE NAME OF A PRODUCT TO USE TO REMOVE THE OFFENSIVE COATING AND TOLD ME THAT IT IS A DO-IT-YOURSELF JOB. HE COULD EASILY HAVE CHARGED US $100 OR MORE TO DO IT, AS MANY OTHER COMPANIES, I HAVE LEARNED, DO. RARE TO FIND AN HONEST PERSON.
Description of Work: I CALLED TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH IT WOULD BE TO HAVE A VERY BAD REFINISHING JOB REPAIRED ON A TUB IN THE HOUSE WE BOUGHT LAST YEAR.

THEIR WORK WAS EXCELLENT. CLEANED UP BEAUTIFULLY AFTER WORK WAS DONE, LEFT WARRANTY INFORMATION NEAR THE TUB, AND PLAYED WITH OUR DOGS. WHAT MORE COULD A HOMEOWNER WANT? I WOULD DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN AND RECOMMEND THEM TO OTHERS.

Description of Work: THEY COMPLETELY REGLAZED OUR BATHTUB. AT ONE TIME IT HAD THE "SNOWFLAKE" DECALS TO PREVENT SLIPPING. THEY HAD BEEN TAKEN OFF WITH A CLEANER THAT LEFT THE TUB VERY GRITTY AND NEVER LOOKED CLEAN.

ANDY DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB ON OUR OLD PORCELAIN TUB -- IT IS SPARKLING WHITE AND LOOKS BRAND NEW. HE ALSO GAVE LOTS OF GOOD ADVICE ABOUT MAINTAINING THE FINISH AND INCLUDED AND FREE CAN OF BON AMI CLEANER. IN ADDITION, HE TOLD ME HOW TO USE RAZORS AND 'SCRUBBING BUBBLES' TO GET THE YELLOW STAINS OFF THE WHITE TILE IN THE SHOWER, AND THIS WORKED REALLY WELL FOR ME. (HE ALSO SAID NEVER TO USE SOFT SCRUB OR ANY PRODUCT WITH BLEACH.) THANKS TO HIS ADVICE, BOTH OUR TUB AND TILES LOOK LIKE NEW.
Description of Work: HE REFINISHED AND RECAULKED OUR BATHTUB, WHICH WAS BADLY STAINED AND WAS IN PRETTY ROUGH SHAPE.
