We have a short-term rental and it had an unfinished shower in the basement that was an eyesore and essentially unusable. George snuck us in last-minute and worked until midnight to get it sealed and tiled for us! Such an improvement and really adds to our guests' experience. Thanks!

George responded to my request within five minutes on a Sunday evening and came to assess my kitchen backsplash project with his tile installer at 8:00 the next morning. He explained the work clearly and provided a quote. His team did beautiful work—the tile lines are even, and the corners and exposed edges are carefully finished. They protected my floors and cleaned up thoroughly afterward. George was responsive, professional, and easy to work with. I’m very happy with my new backsplash and would definitely recommend Commonwealth Restoration.
Details: Kitchen • Backsplash • 51 - 100 sq ft • Ceramic • Yes, I already have the tiles

George did 2 bath rooms and 1 powder room at our house. It was a fairly large project and George got it done in a reasonable amount of time and on budget. He worked really well with us changing things as we needed. He was also able to replace our water softener that had gone bad, he adjusted his schedule to make this work as well. His best quality is his responsiveness to email or calls to answer even the smallest questions or concerns. Would definitely recommend him for small or large projects.

George helped us with our kitchen tile backsplash design. Very experienced with house renos / repairs. He did a good job with our backsplash for a very reasonable price! He even helped us with repair details unrelated to kitchen backsplash—we will be hiring George for other projects around our house in the future.

While I did not have George do any work for me he did provide some real helpful tips on how to set tile, tile edging and the mosaic in our shower niche. I watched a good number of how-to You Tune videos but the tips he provided were nothing I’d seen on You Tube and his tips were a real time saver and, I believe, made for a better project. He was easy to work with and understand. I would you George for a future project based on my experience with him.

FAQs
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I studied graphic arts, commercial art, and design. Upon graduating, I wanted something more hands-on, so I immersed myself in several apprenticeships. One for painting, wallpaper, and decorative finishes. Another for frame carpentry, interior trim and custom cabinetry. Another for tile and stone. As well as one for electrical and one for plumbing totaling 10 years. I also strive to keep up with the latest trends, emerging technologies, and methods of the various trades that I engage in.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
Right out of high school I loved old houses and restoring them was something I have always loved doing. In addition to preserving history, I enjoy implementing the latest methods while respecting the architecture of the home.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I’ve worked with a wide variety of clients from young families just starting out with a new home to empty nesters looking to age in place.
