"We wanted to replace our 30 year old wood deck with a composite deck so we met and received quotes from multiple contractors, but ultimately I decided to go with M&L Pro Landscaping & Construction. When we met with the owner, Leo, we felt he was honest, knowledgeable, friendly, and very importantly, he gave us the best price of all the people we met based on the size, material, and brand of our choice. Initially, we only wanted to do the deck, but they were so good that we decided to ask them to replace our patio too. They were so good with deck and patio that we ended up asking them to fix our retaining wall too. Leo and his team were professional, reliable, courteous, and very hard working. We cannot say enough good things about them. We recommend M&L Pro to our friends, families, and colleagues at work. We will be asking Leo and his team to come back soon to do our driveway when the time is right. Thank you so much Leo and team for all the wonderful work you have done for our family!!"

"Complete SCUMBAGS...Worked for months on design and install on new construction home...nothing ever goes according to plan. Once I had line of sight on project completion, I went back to schedule the job and these aholes Ray Varela and Bob Guarino jacked up my price by 5K (within 90 days). This was after several attempts to bait and switch on several quotes...adding here, removing there...trying to inflate the price decrease the scope. I have several quotes documented and will provide evidence to anyone who asks to prove my point...of course these scumbags will dispute my story...but I own the facts. Too many contractor options avail...STAY AWAY FROM SSG!!"

"Lenny and Lisa are great. During the demolition phase, Lenny took great care to cover our hardwood floors and cleaned thoroughly while removing the countertops and backsplash which really helped to keep the dust level down. Lisa recommended vendors for our granite, tile backsplash and sink - they were all so helpful. We have never done a kitchen renovation before and were a little anxious about the process and making choices. Lenny allayed our fears and was spot on with suggestions. Lisa was always available for communication and answering questions. The sub-contractors were all excellent, personable and professional. The whole job was finished ahead of schedule which allowed for our 18 month old granddaughter to come for an earlier visit! Overall we are thrilled with the outcome and will definitely use Apple Wood for future projects!"

The best tile for your in-ground pool depends on your style preferences and budget. If you're seeking an elegant look and don't mind a higher price tag, glass tiles might be ideal. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are popular choices among homeowners for a balance of affordability and durability. Consider what's most important to you to select the perfect tile for your pool.
Pool tile deep cleaning costs can vary, but it's a worthwhile investment to restore your tiles' appearance and longevity. Techniques like high-pressure glass bead blasting effectively remove buildup and polish the surface, enhancing aesthetics and durability. Regular deep cleaning keeps your pool looking great and protects your investment in the long run.
Aside from tile, you have several other pool finishing options like plaster and aggregate finishes. Plaster gives your pool a modern look and is cost-effective but may require more frequent maintenance. Aggregate finishes offer improved texture and durability, enhancing your pool's safety and visual appeal. Consider these alternatives to find the best fit for your needs.
The lifespan of your pool tiles can vary widely based on the type of tile, installation quality, and maintenance. Generally, pool tiles last between 10 and 20 years. However, when properly installed and maintained, durable options like ceramic and porcelain tiles can last up to 100 years. Regular care ensures your tiles remain in great condition for decades.
Retiling your pool is a perfect time to tackle other home improvement projects. Since you'll be draining the pool anyway, consider replacing the vinyl liner, repairing any structural cracks, or upgrading your pool heater. By addressing these tasks together, you can enhance both the functionality and appearance of your pool.
Proper pool maintenance significantly extends the life of your pool tiles. By consistently cleaning, balancing chemical levels, and ensuring good water circulation, you preserve the strength and color of your tiles and prevent degradation. Taking care of your pool means your tiles stay pristine, and your pool remains safe and beautiful for many years to come.
