Tile Installation
Do you know what's under your floor?
The key to a good tile installation is prep work. Preparation involves selecting the right underlayment suited for your project. Care is taken in determining which backerboard or uncoupling membrane is chosen to add for a lasting installation. There may be waterproofing necessary (or desired), and the proper material will need to be applied.
After determining the right backerboard for your tile, we will install the underlayment to manufacturer's specifications. Your tile layout is then drawn into place to ensure the project is completed to proper aesthetics. Tile will be set in a troweled bed of modified thinset. The adhesive is given time to dry, and then the tile surface is grouted.
Interior Painting
Color can dramatically alter any space within a home. The possibilities made available to us by modern paints are almost limitless, and traditional and modern homes alike can be transformed through the clever use of color. Pale colors, whites, and pastels can instantly refresh a tired room, giving a clean look and creating a bright, spacious atmosphere. Rich colors, such as deep ruby or emerald green, will have an intense effect, creating a more intimate and cozy feeling.
Never forget your own personal preferences and inspirations. If you simply love rich, jewel-like shades, then be bold and go for a luscious raspberry to inspire you in your work area. We can use our knowledge of the color wheel to perfect the actual shades and intensity of colors. Certain colors can evoke emotional response, and clever use of light can enhance or subdue a mood. So before you decorate, take the time to first consider how you want to feel in the room, and spend some time there before you decide on the final palette.
Test colors can be painted on walls and trim to observe how they change from day to night. You can drape fabric over a chair in front of the wall and move furniture closeby to see how the two colors and surfaces interact with each other.
Pinks are fun, lively, positive and feminine.
Reds are passionate, daring, intimate and comforting.
Oranges stimulate creativity and are warming and cozy.
Yellows are welcoming and sunny. Strong yellows are said to help the brain work better.
Greens represent nature and are both tranquil and invigorating, as well as restful and balancing.
Blues are connected to the sky and to water, and they are associated with clear thinking and calm, meditative environments.
Violets can be stimulating and sexy, while blue violets can be cooling and spiritual.

Color washing means applying a coat of thinned paint over a background color. Sponging can be done a number of ways and involves dobbing and different colors. Ragging is one of the most varied and dramatic effects in the field of broken color, and is accomplished with rolled up cloth. Marbling gives the illusion of luxurious marble, great for columns or underneath a chair rail.
We can create unique murals for your room. Like this space mural (below) for a kid's room.
