Backsplash

Here is a backsplash I installed Friday..

Started on a sheetrock wall, I sealed the edges with silicone

Starting the customers design


Pulled the plugs out to the front edge of the tile

Grouted it with white pre-mixed grout.  About a 5 hour process
from start to finish.
(Now we hope they paint the cabinets!)
Happy Backsplashing!

Commercial Bathroom Stall Doors

Here's a project we worked on a few weeks ago.
We set up at night to build new stall doors in the bathrooms,
semi-rustic (whatever that means) but this is what the design
came out looking like...
I decided that using outdoor privacy fence gate hardware would fit
best with the design.
We painted them later with the restaurant colors, it seemed to fit well
with restaurant style.
Happy Privacy!

FRP Install

Installing FRP panels this weekend in a private school in Dallas.

  The guys working with me today showed me a great tip I had never done.  We are using my electric metal-cutting shears to cut it.  It is speeding up the process by a huge amount.

  These guys have installed over 4,000 sheets of these panels over the last year.  It helps so much to have folks that really know what they are doing!

  One person measuring, one marking and cutting and one going ahead and behind removing and replacing everything hanging from the walls makes it a smooth, efficent process

FRP panel in a private school

The last kids have had lunch... so we have begin prepping the kitchen at this private school to install FRP panels.

 
  FRP panels are "fiberglass reinforced panels" used mainly in commercial applications.  It's like having a plastic wall that can be easily cleaned.

  The Dallas Health Department is requiring this upgrade, so we are attempting to make everyone happy..

  I guess we're doing good Marcos looks like he is moving at lightning speed!

Money Saving Team!

And just like that... we saved a Remax agent from having to call a plumber, electrician and a sheetrocker this afternoon..

Stuck door!

Even in really nice houses we often see this problem in North Texas..
   This is an 8 foot door that's stuck in the door jam in Southlake this morning.
   I wonder if it has anything to do with that nose sticking through the crack in the door..

Custom shelves

Installed custom shelves yesterday in Las Colinas,  the owners provided us with specs for shelves and a clothes hanging bar with another shelf.
  We finished out the closet in a matter of 4 hours complete with a coat of paint!
