We are getting ready to complete the last stages of our house addition and my wife has finally come to the conclusion that she "just wants it done". I guess taking 3 years to build an 800 square ft. addition is just a little longer than she wanted. We have built it a little at a time as I've had cash.
I did the tile in the toilet and sink area of the bathroom and it came out just OK. Nothing to write home about, but it was my first attempt at ceramic tiling anything. In my wife's words, "Your work is good, and I don't doubt that you COULD do the bath and shower areas, but it would take you 6 months to do what a pro would do in two days." I'm sure there's a compliment in there somewhere....
Anywho... I'm hoping that someone who does it for a living, or is just really good and artistic with ceramic tile who needs some work at present would be interested in taking a look at the job. I will be getting my annual sales bonus in February, so that is when I'll be able to get all the materials and pay for the labor. I know that's sill a month off, but I wanted to see who's out there that might be interested in doing it.
I can help shlep materials if that helps, but most pros would rather just have the homeowner out of the way so that they can work. I can work either way. I'll install all the backer board prior to beginning, so that should make it go quicker.
Also, I'll buy all the materials and I'll pay cash for the labor...
