It included color sealing a tiled kitchen counter with extremely stained grout that could not be cleaned. Also color sealing three floors and two tiled bay windows. Everything is completely transformed. It's early days, but even the countertop has been easy to maintain despite the insults of a busy kitchen. We had one glitch. The technician applied samples of several colors to each part of the job. The one I picked for one of the floors looked very unattractive to me once it was applied to the entire floor. It wasn't Sir Grout's fault, but Chris worked with me to find a very fair solution. By the time the technician left the floor looked great. I also showed Chris a fully tiled bathroom. Aside from the floor, which we did color seal, Chris recommended skipping that room since it is in such good shape and showers can get expensive. It is refreshing to find a company that does not oversell. I think that Chris takes a very long term view of his company and values loyal customers over short term revenue. So I can highly recommend Sir Grout!

    AITA? After doing a little bit of internet searching for a…read morecarpet cleaner I found K-A Carpet. I saw on Yelp they were running an offer for $50 to get $100 credit on service. I went on their website and decided just to book through their website as I like supporting local businesses, especially if they invested in an online presence. Some background: I moved from South of Boston to North of Boston, and my new place wasn't so new and needs some cleaning before I move-in. I talked with the owner who said when they get their carpets cleaned they are usually charged for three rooms for the place, so I assumed it would be equivalent to 400 square feet. I also wanted to clean the tile/grout from the kitchen and bathroom - at least the places where foot traffic was, so I figured for the bathroom would be 25 square feet and the kitchen about 50 square feet. Thus, I put in for 75 square feet of tile/grout cleaning. Okay, so I add those services and pick a day that the owner of the unit would be there prior to my arrival. I pay the $60 down-payment to confirm the online order. I sent the owner cash to pay, with $65 extra in case of any overages or in case they do a wonderful job and feel the need to tip $20. The day comes, I receive a call from the tech at 12:06pm who is doing the service when they arrived on location. I let the tech know that I'm not on-location but the person there is opening up the garage for them now and that I left cash as payment for their services with him when thee services are complete. And at that time he told me that the garage door was opening and he was greeted by the owner. Minor issue 1: I received a call from the owner at 12:08pm saying that the tech requested the full bill to include what I paid in the down-payment and wanted to verify if I paid anything up-front. I then pulled up the email and credit card online statement to be sure that I was charged the down-payment and told them that I did in-fact pay the down-payment of $60, and the due at completion would be the remainder balance of the invoice. So, what was up with the tech not knowing how much to collect? Or was that a tactic just to get more money when he knew he wasn't dealing with the person paying the bill? Sure, could be an innocent blunder not looking at invoice very closely. But that got solved. I get to the location the following day and talk with the owner who informed me that they liked the carpet cleaning service, but didn't like the chemical or perfume in the cleaner as it made him cough. I looked around and the carpets were cleaned decently enough. Could I have cleaned it the same or better with a rug doctor mighty pro or bissell big green machine rental - yes. I then as about the tile in the bathroom or kitchen as I also expected the bathroom or kitchen to be done as I paid for 75 square feet of that too, but was told that they didn't. The owner then handed me back $60, indicating he thought the tech only deserved a $5 tip. I asked if they mentioned anything about the tile or grout cleaning service, to which the owner said no. I then reached out for support using text messaging to see what K-A's side of the story was at 9:54am. And after a phone conversation at 10:29am, they informed me that the space was larger than anticipated, and when they spoke with the person at the property they got "no response," however, if they were wrong they could reschedule to come back. The part I thought was strange is the "no response" because I got a call when the amount due was in question... Why didn't I also get a call here, either from the tech or the owner saying something isn't adding up. I can understand if there was a miscommunication on the exact dimensions of the space, so I voiced my thoughts, which verbatim are "I'll check and get back to you. If you don't hear back from me everything is ok." I get the space measured, and turns out that yes the measurements were a little off, but according KA's own ordering/scheduling system was a difference in price of $50 if they charged exact amount of carpet space plus 100 square feet for the actual 105 square feet tile/grout. Or a difference in price of $77.50 if they charged 125 square feet for the 105 actual square feet of the tile/grout. The owner had enough to cover $65 in case this exact thing happens. And you would think a reasonable person would accept $15 for an extra 5 square feet of space, instead of the 90c per square foot they charge in the 25-sq.ft.block billing. Or could have just said it was 100 square feet and pocketed the rest as a tip. I bring this information back via text messaging and get told that they would be happy to schedule tile and grout cleaning for $250. Also that I'm entitled to a $12.50 refund as that is the difference between what I paid and what services I received. Me: Why didn't the tech contact me like they did earlier if they had a concern with size/scope of job? "If the person on-site couldn't make a decision, that would be more

I questioned if he was using the same color grout, and he assured me it would dry to the same color. By now I had been without the shower for over a week. When it dried, it was clear it was the wrong color and the job looks bad and unprofessional. I told them but said I couldn't be without the shower any longer (it has to stay dry for three days before and after every visit!) I am very disappointed and would not recommend them.

Rubin is a master in disguise, a craftsman who literally has a magic wand to turn old into brand new! When I contacted him to discuss options to address my 20 year old dirty beige tile kitchen floor, he reassured me he could transform it. We were considering tearing up all the tile and spending thousands on a kitchen remodel, but he explained that he could bring it back to life, lighten it up so you won't recognize it! Wow, Did he deliver! The transformation was outstanding! He provided us with a new floor and saved us a lot of money. It was so easy to work with Rubin and the cost of his work was such a pleasant surprise. Thank you Rubin, for giving our outdated kitchen floor and backsplash a whole new modern look!

Quality of work was excellent. Job just completed so how long the tile work lasts without a failure is unknown. I purchased the tile and grout separately from a local imported tile company not from a big box company. This was a very small tiling project. Completed a second project while the first was in process. The second project was replacement of an improperly installed walk-in shower chair. Involved opening a wall up (in a closet) to access the back side of the shower wall to install blocking for the chair and drilling new holes in the tile for the screws to attach the chair to the tiled wall. Both the interior of the shower and the wall inside the closet were carefully worked on with no problems. The chair is now installed with proper blocking behind the tiled wall. They re-installed the plastered wallboard inside the closet with minimal visibility. The workers were polite and efficient and respectful. Highly recommend this contractor. As an aside, other contractors suggested by Yelp came in at 56% higher (one contractor quoted on photos only), a second contractor quoted 488% higher (nearly $4000 more) and a second quoted at 390% higher ($3000 more). Not for nothing, I would have preferred them saying they didn't want to do the small job than trying to rip me off. They won't be hearing from me for ANY future jobs.
