Luke did a wonderful job repairing our 1960's slate tile! He was super responsive and informative, made sure we were on the same page about any decisions he needed to make, and the repair looks beautiful. He was always on time and got the work done quickly as well. He also showed us how to protect and care for the floor. Highly recommended! (Note that the after photo shows the repair before the cleaning and protectant.)

Luke restored a sad-looking travertine shower which I thought might have to be torn out. When he was done it looked like it did when it was first built. He also added a “lip” to a second shower stall and thoroughly cleaned and polished it. I also hired Luke to lay luxury vinyl flooring throughout my basement. And he ripped up layers of old vinyl flooring in my kitchen and replaced it with porcelain tile. Everything looks really sharp. I sold my house this week on the first day it was for sale!
Luke is extremely hardworking, knowledgeable and communicative. He stays in close touch throughout his projects which is quite refreshing. I am very fortunate to have hired Luke for all this work when I really needed his professionalism.

Thank you for the great review! I'm so glad we were able to restore your beautiful travertine shower and make it look new again. It's also great to hear that your LVP basement floors and baseboards, as well as your upstairs kitchen tile floors, turned out so well. Congratulations on selling your home on the first day it was listed! Thank you for trusting me with these projects and for your kind words about my communication and professionalism. It was a pleasure working with you.

Wonderful experience, Luke is a godsend. I will never use another contractor to refinish any project in my home.

We had a great experience working with Luke and Jessica. They repaired our shower grout in the corners and floor from where the shower was done improperly originally and had started leaking. We felt really informed by them throughout the process and they completed the job fast and with a lot of care.
Details: Bathroom • Tub / Shower enclosure • Crumbling, stained, or missing grout
