An 8"x16" travertine stone tile floor I installed in a customers kitchen last week! Came out really nice, even better after it was buffed and sealed.

While plumbing may not be the most glamorous do-it-yourself skill, it could be the most useful. Plumbing is so essential to the home, that when it's working properly, you take it for granted. Luxuries such as hot showers, dishwashers and garbage disposers all make life a lot easier. But when it's not working properly, things can get messy: clogged toilets, leaky faucets and flooded basements can disrupt your quality of life in an instant.

So if you have any plumbing problems call Gary's Home Improvements to get the job done!

Getting your bathroom the way you really want it to look can now be achieved! With so many styles, patterns, colours and textures on the market it's easier than ever! Tiles change bathrooms, kitchens and hallways instantly. From ho-hum rooms to rooms of elegance and richness. Tiles are very easy to maintain as well as durable, just wipe the dirt away! Ceramic tile floors are usually cold, but you can bring warmth to them from underneath with the proper radiant heating.A bathroom Reno usually takes anywhere from 1-3 weeks depending on the size of the bathroom and what you want done to it. From changing over a couple of fixtures and painting, to tiling the floor, bathtub and shower areas. Bathrooms and kitchens are the "hot ticket rooms" to renovate in your house, that's where you should spend your money and upgrade. Most of the time the kitchen is where alot of time is spent. In the end, they will get you more value for your house when you are ready to sell.
