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.

The built-in soap holder fell out of the tiled shower wall taking several tiles with it. Wayne replaced the tiles, caulked around the tub, and repaired any broken pieces of grout on the shower walls. Wayne is personable, professional and a hard worker! Will call him again with other projects around the house.

Wayne got back to me right away and even came over on a weekend to do the job. He gave me a very reasonable price, was knowledgeable and pleasant. He was a delight to work with. I plan to use him in the future for any small home repairs. If you are tired of handymen who don't call back or try to rip you off, call Wayne. He is a refreshing change and I highly recommend him.

Perfect. Wayne has been a pleasure, and he has fixed alot of things in the house. He fixed my dimmers and rewired a light switch to a better location. The bathtub work he did was excellent. He removed the old tiles, cleaned them, fixed the cement board that was damaged, reset the tiles, grouted, and caulked the tub. Looks like new....and no more water coming through the ceiling! Very happy with everything so far, and he will be returning to do some plumbing fixes again soon!
Description of Work: Trouble shoot failing toilet. Recommend a new toilet. Put in the order. Picked up and installed new toilet. Delivered old toilet to basement. He came quickly because i was expecting guests. I have also had Wayne do other work. Electrical, and he fixed my bath tub tile work as well!

Wayne is a very nice guy who responded promptly and showed up timely. He fixed two of the three things we discussed on the phone, as he felt the third would take too much time. He is most skilled in plumbing and electrical work, and light carpentry, so not really interested in the other things I needed, which involved more build /paint work. If I needed a plumber or electrician I would call him again. He is the type of person you feel is trustworthy to have around the house.
Description of Work: Scraped and repainted soffit damaged over the winter and reattached edge of deck roof. Primed door jamb.

Wayne is GREAT! He's prompt and is great at explaining what needs to be done. He helped recondition my shower and fixed a mystery leak as well as the crazy screech coming from the bathroom fan. He also came by for a second visit to help patch some drywall. Great guy, excellent service. Will be using him again for bigger projects in the future.

Wayne is a delightful fellow as well as a meticulous and skillful carpenter. He quickly responded to our request for assistance and installed a hose hook-up so that we can water our new spring landscaping. We are looking forward to working with him again on several electrical problems in our two-unit property. It is a real pleasure to talk to him about future projects and we are looking forward to seeing him again!

Uncle Wayne is a courteous and knowledgable guy. He was running late for a few visits, but he always called with an update. He got started on our project right away and, as I suspected, it would take more than the 3 hour deal I had purchased to complete. So we arranged for him to come back to finish the job. He was forthcoming with his availability and keep his commitments. I was looking for a handyman who could add his talents to my "expanded diy" project. And Wayne was a great fit. I hope to hire him for a full bathroom (non-diy) build out in the near future.
Description of Work: Uncle Wayne helped to convert a bathroom into a pantry. This required demolition of the existing bath as well as removing the drain pipes for the toilet and the sink.

Every job Wayne has done for us has been excellent. He is professional, skillful, and thorough. Aside from the good work he does, Wayne is a pleasure to be around. The name "Uncle Wayne" is spot on! Wayne is above and beyond your average handyman. He is creative and helpful when it comes to projects around the house--more like a general contractor. He has helped us figure out what projects are attainable in the near term and which are better for down the road.
Description of Work: Wayne has done several odd jobs around our house--e.g. re-caulking the tub, installing new hose bibs/spigots on the exterior of the house. He also built excellent shelves in a closet.

I just wanted to take the time to let you know how much i appreciate the job Uncle Wayne did in hanging pictures and curtains for me. Uncle Wayne was very professional and timely. In this world it is often hard to find people who do what they say they are going to do. This was never an issue. Uncle Wayne started when he said he would and he finished when he said he would. The work was always to my satisfaction. I would recommend Uncle Wayne, without hesitation, to anyone who needs similar assistance in setting up their home.

I've used Wayne on several occasions to handle all sorts of tasks around the house, a minor list would include: fixed doors, installed hand rails, repaired plumbing installation problems, repaired dishwasher seals, fixed windows from slamming down, applied concrete sealant around driveway etc. Sometimes it takes a little work to coordinate his time/schedule as he is a busy guy. Overall he's knowledgeable, fair priced, and communicates well so the job gets done as you desire. Definitely recommend.

I spoke to the service provider and sent him pictures. We assessed the work from the photos and determined that the scope of the work necessary goes beyond the 2 hours allotted in the big deal. I then called Angie's List to cancel.

Work was done efficiently. There seems to be little about bathrooms and plumbing that he doesn't know.
Description of Work: We originally hired him just to do some small jobs but it grew into bigger jobs. He put in a new shower in my bathroom and installed new toilets in two of our bathrooms. He also cleaned our bathroom ventilator fans, installed new lighting fixtures in the basement, and fixed a leak from one of the bathrooms. We have other projects he will be doing.

Uncle Wayne was wonderful to work with. He was professional and took the time and care to do the job right. He doesn't take shortcuts or leave details unfinished. This guy knows his stuff! He was always prompt to respond to my emails, calls, or texts. He arrived on time to my house, or if he was running behind he would let me know. He even came in to do work over the 4th of July weekend! He was very trustworthy, and although the job ended up costing a bit more than he quoted, I was very happy with the extra work and materials he put into it. The kitchen looks terrific now - thanks to Wayne! I will definitely call him again.
Description of Work: Uncle Wayne removed my old countertops and sink and hauled away the waste. He leveled the existing cabinets below and prepared them for the new countertops. He cut out the old plumbing for the sink and installed new plumbing, sink, faucet, and disposal. He removed the old coil for the ice maker in the fridge and installed a new one and repositioned/leveled the fridge. He repositioned/leveled the oven. He installed a tile backsplash. He fixed the light above the sink.

Wayne was extremely helpful. He not only did an amazing job, but he was very forthcoming about the age and issues with a bathroom as old as mine. He explained everything he was doing and why and also made recommendations to put in my long term maintenance plan. He also provided upgrade recommendations that were really helpful! Even better he gave me a few tips on things that the non-handyman in me could do to fix a few small items around the house. Thought he was terrific and will use him again for other household projects!
