Making Up For Lost Time…read more.... My wife and I bought a lot in a growing development in 2017 and went through the process of choosing options and watching empty space become a house. It was fun and we did a good job in most ways, but in a few instances we turned out to be "penny wise and pound foolish". One of those examples was the 2 car garage. It came with a concrete slab, but we could have elected to get an epoxy coating. The slab looked fine for a year, but disadvantages became hard to ignore. Finally, after seeing a new epoxy floor at a friend's garage, we decided to take the plunge after 7 1/2 years. Based on Yelp reviews, we chose Central Coast Polishing and Restoration. Stars: - Overall: 5 - The Start: 5 - Explanations: 5 - Scheduling: 5 - Workmanship: 5 - Communication: 5 - Cleanliness: 5 - Cost: 4 - The Start: I called and spoke with James the owner who came out the next day to look things over. - Explanations: James assessed our situation...explained his process and set expectations. He was thorough - not pushy - and showed us a variety of epoxy colors and textures. The regular cost for a garage our size was $4,000...but since it was the offseason we got it for $3,650. - Scheduling: Easy. James and his crew usually need 3 consecutive days (preferably rain free) for the job. Fortunately we were in the midst of a multi-week dry spell in early December so we picked Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of the following week. - Workmanship: Excellent. Early Tuesday morning, the 2 man crew introduced themselves and spent roughly 4 hours grinding and polishing the concrete. They took 2-3 hours on Wednesday to prepare and condition the floor. Thursday was a 2 step process. A few hours in the morning to put down the new epoxy covering and a few in the afternoon to apply a sealer. Since the epoxy needed time to "cure", they recommended leaving our cars outside until Sunday, but said we could move boxes back in on Friday or Saturday. We waited until Sunday for everything. - Communication: Very good. James stayed in touch and the 2 man crew always let us know when they arrived, when they left and patiently answered our questions. - Cleanliness: As good as can be expected. Aside from the smell, you couldn't tell it was a construction site. - Cost: Reasonable. The epoxy coating in our friend's garage cost $2,800...but it's a bit smaller. All in all it was a very good experience and we'd recommend contacting James for similar needs. NOTE: One small caution. A piece of their equipment left a small gas or oil stain on the driveway. When I mentioned it to James in a text, he said "use a degreaser or dish soap. It should dilute enough and fade. Sorry about that. It's hard to control every little detail at times". I would have sent somebody back to handle it myself.

Steve is very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. He's easy to talk to and his projection date of completion was pretty accurate. The guy that worked on our projects, Pete, was always punctual, professional, listened to what our needs were and offered great suggestions when asked. He stayed focus on our project the entire time while working. He kept us in the loop daily of what steps would be performed each day. What I really liked is that he cleaned his area as much as possibe before he left each day. We were very pleased and impressed with our end results. They did an excellent job, their skills are superb and we would highly recommend them to anyone. They will not disappoint you.

Although questions were welcomed, none were needed. There was no pressure to make an immediate decision. Material was left for me to review at my leisure. This Company knows how to make a prospective customer feel comfortable and well informed. Since this was my first estimate, I have nothing to compare it to. I would encourage anyone considering a painting project to give this company an opportunity to give you a bid.

Upon completion of the job I noticed none of the interior doors closed properly. Upon further inspection I discovered that for some reason all of the hinge screws were replaced with random mix and match screws with various head types which made the doors unable to close. I complained and asked that they be replaced with proper hinge screws and they said they would do that. Unfortunately, they instead selected very thick, long screws which were still not hinge screws (see photo comparing hinge screws with what they selected). The doors were usable but still did not operate like they did before. As these screws were very oversized I was forced to remove them all, fill the holes with wooden dowels, and then add in the proper hinge screws. This job was made even worse as the painters for some reason took the doors off the frames but painted the hinges, many of which were brand new and needed to be replaced. They also badly scratched every door knob in the house, which was frustrating since they were replaced just before this project started. Outside of the door issues, they forgot to paint a few areas and got paint on trim in a few places, but I would have probably overlooked this had the doors not created hours of labor and cost me hundreds of dollars in replacement hardware.

Absolutely terrible experience with this company. I called for a mold inspection and the owner I…read morepresume from the conversation came out with zero equipment, just walked around and looked around and said I had no mold but needed to replace some wood by my sink and would send a quote. I never heard back and called another company for a quote as I don't think that hiring someone you have to chase down to do work is reliable. Almost a year later, I start getting phone calls and text messages demanding payment for work, threatening to show up at my door and asking when I am going to be home to collect payment. I had completely forgotten who this even was because it has been so long. I asked what work they had done and what I was supposed to "pay" for. I asked them to please mail me a bill as I also thought this was a phone scam. They said I needed to pay for the mold inspection report and then also said there was no mold. I had never received a report, I had never received a bill, and asked for them to mail me the "bill" with the report so that I can actually see and receive what I am being charged for and so I knew this was in fact a legitimate company and isn't a scam as the phone number texting me was unknown and I had never communicated with that number. They texted me a file that I could not open and so I asked again for them to mail me a bill and stated that I would like the report they said they are charging me for. A month goes by and I still have not received the report in the mail and they start texting again demanding payment for something I never received. I ask again for them to send me the report, they state that they mailed it with the bill which they absolutely did not. I had received a one page bill with no inspection report. I asked again for a copy as when you are asking for hundreds of dollars for something, you should actually get it before payment especially when the company has been this terrible, lying about mailing a report and never even giving me a call after they come out until a year later demanding money for something I never got. In the end they ended up texting me pictures of a report. I would never hire this company due to their horrible customer service, lying about mailing a report, and never following up about the work, but a year later text demands for money for a report they never even printed out for me. They stated they e-mailed it to my e-mail, but I had nothing in my e-mail and if it went to spam it deletes after 30 days, hence why I asked for a copy. Asking them to actually just send a copy in the mail was too much work for them and never happened, but they still charged me hundreds of dollars for the report.

Eric and his crew from Sublime Tile and Stone just completed a remodel of our guest bathroom. We…read morehad them tile the entire wall around the tub and the two adjacent walls all the way to the ceiling. Eric not only assisted in purchasing the tile (and getting a great deal) but also with some design elements including an ingenious access panel on our whirpool tub that will allow us to easily service the plumbing and motor. Eric and his crew are extremely conscientious, reasonably priced, and hardworking. He was at our house from 8am to 7pm a couple of nights in order to get the project moving along quickly! They showed up on time and stayed on schedule. Eric is very fastidious about cleanliness (an uncommon trait in the tile guys I have worked with) and left the job site cleaner than he found it, even taking time to polish the tub. I highly recommend Sublime Tile and Stone and will use them again for my next job!

Where do I start?…read more Eric and his crew helped us with a remodel a few years ago and we couldn't be more pleased with the work. He re-tiled 3 of our bathrooms completely. Also tiled the jacuzzi tub in the master bath, installed a new shower pan in the lower bath. Also helped in the process with demolition and disposal of all the original stuff. Also did the kitchen back splash. He also went out of his way to listen and offer great ideas. He found exactly what we wanted and purchased the tiles, etc. Eric really knows his stuff and takes pride in his work. Very friendly and is very easy to work with in all aspects from start to finish. Since then, we have used him on other projects and have been equally satisfied. If we need any type of tile work again, we will not hesitate to hire Eric again.
