I recently renovated my main level of my house. This was a very large job and many contractors working in the house at various times. I was the general, and I am not a professional so there are issues with that because I didn't plan for the unexpected and timing issues.
I quoted out the tile job in the kitchen, bathroom and laundry room. I received three quotes. One was from a company that I struck off the list right away when I couldn't get a good reference or any quality pictures of their work. (they were also the lowest price, I wonder why) I later found reviews of their work being subpar. The second was a larger outfit and it took me a long time to even get the quote and they were really expensive. The third was Brian at Gecko tile. With the two previous quotes going the way they did, I was blown away when I received a fair quote and quickly.
These guys worked around other trades people and worked EXTREMELY hard. They saw the importance and timing that I had set out and they are the reason job finished on time. Their workmanship was amazing. Together we chose a very complex herringbone layout and I was really glad we did, because it looks amazing.
Pictures to follow. In every aspect I was very impressed. I do not write review often because I am busy but thought these guys deserved the 10 stars for an exceptional job.
