Art Tile & Handyman Services

After the great work Art did on our patch/​texture/​paint project, we decided to have him back to look at a tile issue in the master bath. We’d just had a new master bath installed a year ago, but the tile work was really poor. The shower pan wasn’t sloped correctly and therefore wouldn’t drain and the grout in the shower floor, the niches in the wall and the bathroom floor was pitted, stained and with pieces missing.
Art said fixing the grout was an easy job and could do it quickly. Fixing the shower pan slope and tile would be much more difficult and wasn’t even sure it could be done but offered to try. We gave him the green light and he got to work. As before, he finished early and under budget. We couldn’t be happier with the result. The shower pan now is properly sloped, the grout and tile work is excellent. And the whole bathroom finally looks right.
He even took the time each day to ensure that any remaining materials or debris left over from the work were cleaned up.
It’s rare to find someone in this business who will give you the straight truth and Art does that and then backs it up with true craftsmanship. Ask him to show you before and after pictures of the tile work in our bathroom. It’s really amazing.

Art has done a few different kinds of work for me. I’ve used him for repairs at my rentals & he has been awesome for all of that. He replaced a concrete retaining wall that had to be jackhammered out (it was a HUGE job.) He even fixed one leaky roof area that several roofers & handyman services never were unable to fix. He always gives me options & lots of info so I know exactly what I’m dealing with too. At my home, he replaced my tub surround tile & a leaky window in the shower that was causing all kinds of problems & wouldn’t even open. He explained a lot about windows in showers being problematic (which I researched & found that he was telling me nothing but exactly what every other expert online said) & so I decided to go with what he recommended, which was a glass block window. He’d have put in whatever window I wanted of course, but just gave me all the facts so I could make an informed decision. We even found one that has a vent I can open so I can still get fresh air. He removed all the old tile that was growing mold behind it, removed the moldy drywall & replaced it with new wall board with a special membrane that won’t let water get behind the tile. The new tile installation was a combo of little accent tile & subway tile & it is so dang pretty. And he cleaned up really, really well at the end of each day so the rest of the bathroom was still usable even though the tub/​shower area was under construction. He’s very careful, detail-​oriented & concerned with quality so I think that you get a very thoughtfully done job rather than something that someone just slapped up as quickly as possible. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
