I randomly met Erick at a sushi restaurant and we got to talking. He seemed like a very decent human being so I took a screen cap of his yelp page in case I would need handyman services. Well a few weeks later I moved apartments and needed a bunch of stuff done (hanging curtains, TV, etc) He was very skilled at all of these things and it saved me a bunch of time and not having to bother my friends. Plus if I did it myself, things would have been much more crooked. He asked all the right questions about how I wanted things set up and was an excellent communicator. He charged me hourly, had a reasonable rate, and was efficient with the time. We got a lot done. I highly recommend Erick for any handyman type stuff you may need! read more

Super late review but Erick did a great job tiling over our existing hideous fireplace last year. His attention to detail is superb when it came to picking out the exact tiles to use and even doing the corners. He had great communication and finished the job quickly and even kept the area clean. I would highly recommend Erick to do any tile work and will definitely reach out to him again for future work! read more

I was recommended to Stone It Up through searching for a toilet fix on next-door app. I was recommended to Erick and it was the best recommendation ever!

I would definitely recommend this business to anyone who is looking for an honest, speedy, and well done repair. read more

Wow. Where do I begin? How about some descriptions? Super professional, attention to detail, customer oriented, craftsmanship, clean and tidy, and team player. Working with Erick has been nothing short of a great experience. He demo'ed tile and reinstalled with some tricky constraints because our original beverage center was installed suboptimally. Erick leaned in on brainstorming solutions, helping with the fridge movement and panel install and leveling himself. Increase in scope was super reasonable and fair on the increase in time and his services. He is super flexible and accommodating and you can tell he loves what he does and he's great at it. Highly recommend and won't hesitate to use his services again. read more

Another project Erick completed for me which is way more complicated than it looks! Erick did a fabulous job of working with some unconventional materials to execute a nearly flawless job on a very wonky surfaces of a vintage fireplace. The result is simply dazzling!

WOW Erick is an amazing tiler/fireplace building/drywall repair...jack of all trades. I initially contacted Erick to tile my kitchen backsplash, and during an in person consultation we started talking about my fireplace and my vision. Next thing you know...I scheduled him to demo my fireplace and build me a new one! Erick is extremely easy to work with. He is responsive via text which you may not get with some contractors. Erick came prepared for all demo work (everything from floor protection to plastic wall draperies to protect your home). Now, everyone raves about the fireplace he built for my home and has completely modernized it. His tiling work is also superb. Great attention to detail, and offered suggestions on how to work around uneven wonky walls, ceilings, and even my kitchen cabinets! When it came to grouting, the color options were endless and he worked with me to decide on what would look best for my kitchen. In addition to his great craftsmanship, Erick even helped patched up some walls that were damaged by other contractors. I couldn't thank him enough. I'm still waiting for my fireplace mantle to arrive (he's going to help me attach it), but he's helped turn my home into an amazing and enjoyable space to look at. I would definitely reach out to Erick for my future home improvement projects. Do keep in mind that Erick is a one man show, so he takes time to make sure things are done right. Quality over speed. I appreciate that. read more

If you need someone to do your tile, Erick is your guy! There is truly no one who is more passionate about tile! We had several areas in need of repair, including some cracked tiles in our bathroom from house settling, damage to our guest shower nook after a siding project, and some tile that needed fixing by the front door. We also had an issue in our master bath where the mortar near the linear shower drain had become soft and was beginning to sag. Erick handled each issue with incredible care and precision. What sets Erick apart is his commitment to quality. He takes the time to do things the right way--carefully waterproofing, using the correct mortar technique, grout, and seal. He also took the time to show my husband how to property seal grout. He is meticulous through and through, and it absolutely shows in his work. His repairs were seamless! You would never know anything had been broken in the first place. We honestly wouldn't trust anyone else with our delicate tile work. Erick is responsive, professional, talented, and really takes pride in his work. read more

Erik did an amazing job tiling our fireplace. He was super responsive, punctual and diligent. He went above and beyond making up for the uneven framing our GC built and coordinated the stone work with our fabricator to make their job easier. Erik was super clean, thorough and more than reasonable with his rate. My only regret is not hiring him sooner for our other tiling projects. Look forward to our next project together on the exterior of the house. read more

We desparately need tile work done in our kitchen and we were fortunate to read the wonderful reviews of Stone It Up on Yelp. We knew immediately that Erick/Stone It Up was the man for our job. We had an area by the window above our sink area that was a diaster and an eye sore. First, Erick explained in wondeful detail (actually his attention to detail is the best as he takes great pride in his work) the various options and then helped us design the tile work we ultimately chose. The finished product was more that we expected; it looks wonderful! Erick performed additional work in our master shower. Erick is a great communicator, he spends the time to explain the details of what he'll be doing and is open to suggestions and questions. We kept us fully informed and was on target with scheduling our job. We're thrilled we chose Erick and would recommend to everyone; we promise you won't be disappointed by chosing Erick for your tile work. read more

We hired Eric to do a tile design on our kitchen wall behind the stove. He was super cooperative in scheduling his work around that of the other subcontractors. When he started the job we discovered that the sheetrock contractor had left a very uneven surface for the tile so Eric had to redo that wall, which hadn't been part of the job description. He was very gracious about it and did what it took to make a perfectly flat wall. The tile installation also was challenging because the art tiles we had selected were very irregular in size, also unexpected. Eric was totally up to the job and had all the finesse it required. He did a great job and we ended up with a beautiful tile wall at a good price. We recommend him highly! read more

Erick is the just amazing. His attention to detail and workmanship is outstanding. He did our kitchen back splash and it turned out to be fabulous. I highly recommend him. read more

Erick does great work! Artisan quality. I had a kitchen tile floor that needed replacing with a new black slate floor. Another company had contracted the job and demolished the floor but then couldn't complete it to the specs. I thought I was screwed and would have to go to vinyl, but then I consulted Erick. He was able to do the job to specs, with gear quality, precision, and attention to detail. Good price too! He might take a little longer because he's a one man show, but it was worth it. Highly recommended, especially when the details are important. read more

Erick helped us create a custom brick backsplash for our stove area and installed white subway tile backsplash throughout. He is detail-oriented and considers all edges, lines, and finishes. He is an excellent problem-solver, provides suggestions based on his expertise, and communicates the process effectively. We love what he has done with our kitchen! read more

Erick gave a quote promptly and was out within a couple hrs. Did a nice job hanging some floating shelves and mirrors in stone wall. Highly recommend and will use again. read more

Erick is very detailed oriented. He doesn't rush and instead talk and explain the process. We had a job with no spare tile, and a bunch of tiles to remove and put back in place. Erick was careful and preserve all existing tiles. Before the job started he applied plastic liners and tape to protect the rest of the house. There was no surprise. He sticked to the original estimate. read more

Erick is truly a professional at an incredible value. He was extremely responsive through text and we were able to schedule a time pretty quickly. Erick is personable and a joy to work with! We had an issue where our original contractor use a less than competent tile person for our house remodel. Our shower tile started cracking and shifting after only two days of use. Erick did a great job of diagnosing the problem and gave clear explanation of what needed to be done. He handled all of the needed materials (excluding the tiles) and scheduled dates that work best for us. Even though the shower incident was kind of a nightmare, Erick made the whole experience as painless as possible. I would highly recommend his services! read more

Erik showed up in a mask and was respectful of our space. We had a leftover piece granite from when we redid our countertops and had been thinking about doing this for a while. Reasonably priced and super fine workmanship on a totally reasonable timeline. I plan to have him come back to do some maintenance on my coutertop around the sink. We are really happy with our new kitchen island! read more

I've been remodeling my bathroom and normally do all the work myself and have done my own tile work in the past. The remodel started to become a long drawn out process and I finally got tired of doing the work and was also, for some reason, paranoid about installing the tile on the wall. I decided to hire someone but I'm very skeptical about the qualifications of someone I find on the internet. I contacted a number of people advertising tile installation. Most simply offered a quote except for Erick from Stone It Up. Erick offered, for a small fee, to come to the job and go over the installation and actually lay out a pattern on the wall so my wife and I could visualize what the tile would look like when installed. He spent a considerable amount of time with us and we found that his advice and the wall layout to be extremely helpful. Based on this we decided to hire Erick. Long story short, Erick did a great job and the wall looks great. In addition he was very professional, including laying out drop cloths everywhere he had to walk and doing a complete clean up after. The fee was very fair especially given the quality of the installation. He also has a very good personality. I just referred my neighbor to do some tile work and would hire him again when I need tile work done. read more

Eric is an excellent communicator who capably managed a mid-project change of direction. I'd definitely hire him again

We did a shower door installation by them. They came on time as scheduled and did a good job.

We had a pretty sizable job. New tile floors in several rooms, new kitchen countertops, new backsplash, the list goes on. Erik's work is the best around but he's also just a real pleasure to work with. He not only managed his project but he helped us manage several other projects going on in the home at the same time. We're also very conscious of VOCs and Erik went out of his way to make sure all products used were the safest around. I can't say enough about his work, he's a perfectionist. And, always willing to tackle other issues as they came up. You won't be disappointed! read more

I got several bids to tile my kitchen walls, and Erick seemed knowledgeable, experienced (I had seen pictures and videos of his work on Instagram), and his price was fair (in the middle of other estimates). I picked him because he seemed like the best quality for a reasonable price. I had a very specific tile style and pattern in mind. Erick and I agreed that I would buy the tile and Schlüter strips; and, his bid included all prep, labor, and consumable materials (e.g. grout, tape, etc.). Right off the bat, Erick put a lot of time into measurement and prep, which I appreciated. He is very meticulous about the layout. PROS: - Erick's tile work / alignment was flawless - Grout work was neat and perfect - Erick is very easy to work with and a nice guy - Erick shows up and works hard - Erick organizes his tools and cleans up - Erick is honest and trustworthy CONS: - Erick oriented the pattern 90 degrees off the picture of what I wanted, but he made up for it by throwing in a granite window sill to match my counter at no extra charge, and finished work looks awesome. I am pleased with the result. - Erick was meticulous, so the job took a few days longer than expected but it was a flat price, so it took more time but no extra charge. - Minor details - he put on brand new stainless steel outlet covers using the old screws with paint on them. Replaced my Nest thermostat with a different screw than it had. The window casing he made to conceal the edge of the tile needed to be sanded at the edge because it was not cut perfectly straight. These things took me 5 minutes to fix. Overall, I am very pleased with the work Erick did, and I would definitely consider him for future work. The main thing is that his tile work was neat, perfectly aligned, looks great; and, he worked hard for a fair price. read more

Erick took on our bathroom reno and did a beautiful job! Demo, tile floor and tub surround, install tub, vanity, LED mirror, toilet, crown moulding and shower doors. We handled all plumbing ourselves as it was outside of the quote. For the most part Erick worked alone so it was not a "quick" job. I am working from home so Erick was always updating me along the way and keeping us all on the same page. Great communication, great value and great cleanliness at the end of each work day as well. Recommendations were given when I needed them and he also listened to my visions and brought them to life. Highly recommend! I couldn't be happier with my bathroom, the photos say it all read more

We had several tiles come loose behind the kitchen faucet after several years of use. We weren't in a position to redo the entire countertop / backsplash, so we reached out to several tile contractors. Erick responded quickly and requested some photos online. After uploading some pics, he provided a very reasonable quote, and was available to start right away. He showed up on time, gave a very clear explanation of what he was going to do, and the repair work turned out far better than expected. His professional approach and attention to detail was very refreshing. I would definitely contact StoneItUp in the future! read more

Erick has fixed my countertops two times now. He does a perfect job. You can't tell there was damage to them. He's professional and very friendly. Highly recommended. read more

We hired Stone It Up to resurface our fireplace from white bricks to gray/white carrera marble tiles. They came highly recommended by Tez Marble in Burlingame where we bought the tiles. The team was professional. They determined a timeline and did the project from start to completion timely. Work is just remarkable and they even tidied up the area at the end of each work day. They take great pride of what they do and make sure we are satisfied. The owner Erick is a great, great guy, calm and has such a good personality to work with. We would hire them in a heartbeat when we are ready to remodel our bathrooms. Highly recommend them and so glad to be able to add them on my rolodex. read more

I have been working with Erick over the last couple of months with multiple projects for my house ranging from hanging pictures to building a banquet bench for my kitchen. Erick is extremely reliable and follows through. He is very easy to work with, is courteous and takes a lot of pride in his work. He is meticulous with everything that he does. Some of the smaller projects Erick and I would work together on-he would listen to what I want, provide recommendations based on his expertise and then he would follow through with what we both decided on. In a world where so many contractors flake or need babysitting, Erick is not one of them! I would highly recommend working with Erick. read more

Wanted to tile the walls in my kitchen and Erick did a phenomenal job. He leveled my counters, did some electrical work and got the tile in on schedule. He will be back to do my entry way and hopefully a bathroom remodel. Erick is detail oriented, keeps you informed along the way - assists in problem solving, and has excellent suggestions. Erick keeps you informed and answered all my questions (I asked a lot of them). He is reasonably priced and we couldn't be happier! read more

Simply wow. I renovated a house and hired fifteen contractors of various trades during the course of the project. Stone it up is at the top of the list for who I would recommend to my friends. Erick treated our house like his own and always had our back. His attention to detail and communication really stand out. He is a craftsman and an artist who makes beautiful tile work. We had framing out of true, other trades that were sometimes difficult to work with, and a tile supplier who messed up our order. Erick rolled with every punch and prevailed to make a truly beautiful job that we will love forever. Thanks Erick! read more

Long story short, I dropped a hammer on my bathroom countertop and chipped it while doing some DIY work. It was a small job that many contractors don't bother with, but Erick didn't mind. He responds to quotes super fast, even late at night. He showed up exactly when he said he would, and did a wonderful job. The surface is so smooth now that I can't even feel the difference. He even gave me a discount off his original quote, which was already very reasonable, because the job wasn't as hard as he thought. Epitome of professionalism, highly recommended! read more

Good experience with Erick. He did marble tile work of around 1500SFT and complete tile Work in the powder room in our home in San Ramon. He was very precise, meticulous in his work. Although he took little longer than expected he gave us excellent quality work. read more

I have done 7 remodeling of different properties from high end to a single family home. I met more contractors and installers than average homeowners. I used STONE IT UP on 3 of my last properties and I am going to use them again to do our office and my next property that is being remodeled. They do the job with care, on time. Believe me I did hire a few hotshot installers who claimed they did many top restaurants in SF at the end the workmanship wasn't great and I had to take them to court so I watch for detail workmanships and a poor job will not fly by me. I am very satisfied with STONE IT UP. read more

We hired Erick & Stone It Up to upgrade both the upstairs/downstairs fireplaces in our home to a new tiles for the facade and hearth areas.

Erick is very attentive to details and was accommodating of changes and was easy to work with. Highly recommend Erick and Stone it Up team for any such tile work. read more
