Hosea's painter team did nothing short of a miracle job. Really…read more I wholeheartedly recommend you go with them. You can't go wrong. I appreciated his teams' skills and most importantly his ethics, honesty and integrity. I recruited Hosea and his team for a risky paint job due to the unusual designer type of paint we were going to use. Also, I had a very tight deadline at risk of not being able to move in. Every painters told me they needed at least 2 weeks or more to finish it, even with a 3-person teams. This even included a large national paint companies (those who specialized on commercial or corporate buildings). Hosea's team were able to finish it in just about a week or slightly more, allowing me to move in right in time. I used a designer paint complex to handle and prone to mistake from inexperienced painters with this particular paint. As expected, they made a mistake, but owned it without creating difficulties. The end result ended up very fan-tas-tic, above and beyond expectations. And the pricing (certainly not cheap) was rightly fair and quite reasonable I think. I am so glad I selected Hosea for this impossible mission job. It was a total success. Attached are photos before/after the job. Paint was from Farrow & Ball with the exception of the windows trim (Sherwin Williams).

I worked with Laura at Charlestown Home Improvement on two interior design projects and was…read morethrilled with both experiences. In one, she created a beautiful, thoughtful design starting with a completely empty space; in the other, she helped refine and enhance the design of my home using some existing furniture and recommending new pieces where needed. Laura listens, asks the right questions, and offers creative options without being pushy. Both times, she created spaces that I am truly proud to call home. Highly recommend!

I needed a small piece of quartz to use as a vanity backsplash in my bathroom. I contacted a dozen…read moreplaces before finding Louis Mian. Most places didn't want to bother for such a small job, or wanted to charge me for a full slab of quartz. Chris was super helpful and responsive, and the price was reasonable.

Great selection, great design service and great installation. Fast forward 30 years, and the customer service gets even better. Old house, new leaks. Our bathroom floor gave out due to a leak that took months to source. Facing possible destruction of part of our floor to get at the leak, I went back to Mian hoping beyond hope there was matching stone to be purchased. Jon Mian very kindly went through his inventory and miraculously came up with four pieces of floor tile that perfectly matched that installed by his father. It's a great company that stands behind its customers for generations. Bravo!

Great Wall Kitchen Supply can provide kitchen tools for both everyday home users as well as restaurant owners. I have purchased items both for personal and for restaurant use before. One of the more recent items I purchased from here was one of their cutting boards. It was a round hard rubber cutting board that my sister needed. We had something similar that we used at home for the past decade and counting and it rand around $90 for the medium sized one. For restaurant use, there are everything ranging from dish sets (think sushi) to rice warmers with 100 bowl capacities. Do keep in mind that this is a REALLY tiny place and the walking spaces are quite narrow. If you know what you are looking for, you can call in advance to have them set it aside. I was able to do so and quickly load the items into my car when I pulled up next to the store front recently.

Really, you really want that extra nickel. Buyer beware, you're in for a scare! You can buy good quality utencils at Dollar Tree for way less.
