Uncle Wayne’s Ceramic Tile and Stone

Handyman Services, Kitchen and Bath Remodeling, Ceramic Tile,

About us

Hi there. Wayne Goodlin here. I welcome you to Uncle Wayne's Profile Page. Allow me to tell you who I am and what I'm about. I'm a semi-retired guy who loves building things. I also love fixing things...and repairing that which is repairable. Bathtub tile walls and walls and floors in showers are nearly all repairable…it’s what I specialize in…the young guys never learned ‘repair’, just wreck out the old and build it new…that’s an option for me, but not the only one. While holding a degree in business management from URI, I have been operating a small home remodeling business for the last thirty years, primarily in building bathrooms. I am fully licensed and Insured. My business has always consisted generally of just myself. Honestly, I prefer doing everything myself if I can…I do all the supporting carpentry for my tile and stonework, that is, sub-flooring, wall building, and countertop preparation…my tile work is expert and some years ago I won an award from The Providence Preservation Society…that was for restoration work in an old and wonderful east side home ! Most of my work, however, has been in average homes, primarily suburban…clean, attractive and affordable.

Extremely well! He has an excellent design sense, and he listened carefully to my requests. He built two bathrooms from scratch for me and remodeled two. The tile work is exquisite. His attention to detail is top notch. I recommend him highly.

Wayne did another excellent job. This is probably the 7th or 8th time I have used Wayne because he is nice, honest, and does really good work. I never have to worry about being ripped off as I do with the big companies. He replaced 2 faucets and gave me great advice on getting higher quality replacements.

Uncle Wayne is the man! He is very responsive, knows exactly what he is doing, and very pleasant to work with. Our of all the handymen I contacted, Uncle Wayne is very reasonably priced, quality of work is superb, and he is pretty much a jack of all trades! Will definitely be in touch if ever we need any house work done. Thank you very much! A++++++

I originally thought I was going to need the exhaust fan in my bathroom replaced. Wayne was able to fix my exhaust fan rather than replace it, which saved me money. He was very responsive in our communications back and forth and gave me a clear understanding of what was going on with the job. It’s always good to know an honest handyman! I would definitely recommend him to others.

The job took much longer than anticipated. About a month went by between the initial visit and when the job started. An estimate wasn't provided upon request and it was explained that the work was paid hourly and we would see how it progressed. The work was satisfactory but kind of sloppy (paint drops and specks found around the hardwood floor around the area that was painted, paint drops on granite pavers outside). The painting job of the doors had to be completely redone because the wrong paint was used. We bought the wrong paint but were surprised that he, as the professional, didn't know that it was the wrong paint until it started peeling. The re-do of the painting ended up having the job cost much more because of the extra hours billed. We were expecting better quality overall, so that is why we are grading it as a "C" (fair).

Uncle Wayne provided us with great service: timely communications, responsive to our scheduling needs, personable, thoughtful and organized, resolved several issues with the fan unit itself and vent installation (thru the wall to the house exterior), which we were very happy about. He also went beyond our expectations by working late to complete the job in one visit. He had some difficulting performing the final vent ductwork, which he indicated during the job that it was not his strong suit. We would hire him again depending on the work that needed done.

Excellent! I have been using Uncle Wayne for 4 years. He did some work in an apartment, hung pictures, when I first moved to RI. When I moved into a house, I called him again and he straightened out a few electrical issues. He assembled and installed a bathroom vanity and created shelves in a closet. Wayne is reliable, reasonably priced and finishes projects. I highly recommend Uncle Wayne!

Wayne came by to look at the problem areas and figure out how big of a problem it was. Luckily he didn't find any issues with the subfloor, so he was able to scrape the already crumbling grout out and replace it, being careful to color match it to the existing work. He was even able to do it without damaging any of the tiles.
Description of Work: We had crumbling grout around our bathroom and kitchen tiles that needed to be fixed. Wayne also replaced a broken stone transitioning between the hallway and the kitchen.

Uncle Wayne has done a great job at every project he's helped us with. He's also very good at letting us know his schedule and when we could expect him. From plumbing to repairing ceiling/wall damage to fixing minor things we didn't even notice, he's an experienced and skilled jack of all trades.
Description of Work: Uncle Wayne has done a few projects for us that we couldn't handle ourselves. He has a lot of projects and a busy schedule, but he has always made time for us in between projects or in the evening.

Uncle Wayne repaired the ceiling and two walls after minor water damage, as well as addressed several small plumbing projects in the house. Though he was working on larger projects with several other clients, he made time in the evenings to get our work done. He is friendly and very knowledgeable about numerous areas, and we will certainly call him again if we have other projects.
