First, the sweetest people! I felt completely at ease! They worked very diligently to give me what I asked for. My kitchen turned out beautifully. Will use them again for future projects!

PhD Home Solutions is one of the best companies I have ever encountered. All staff was courteous, professional, and skilled…clear experts in their field. They worked very hard to be neat as possible and offer a very precise end result. I was referred to them by The Tile Shop and immediately knew we found a quality company after meeting Carrie to review the project. She sent us a very detailed quote much faster than I anticipated, and Carrie continued to be exceptional with communication throughout the entire process. There were no extra quote surprises along the way, and they were great with ideas. We could not be happier with the look of the new tile.

PhD did a great job with our kitchen backsplash! We’re very happy with how the project went from start to finish and would definitely recommend them.

Carrie, Paul and their son Jackson were an absolute joy to work with and did an amazing job on our kitchen backsplash. I received their name from the Tile Shop and Carrie called me back within an hour of me calling them. She even came over the same day to take a look at the work we wanted done. They were super flexible with me when our job was scheduled for the next day and I decided I hated the tile I picked out! They worked me back in within a few weeks. When they came out, the demo was very clean and Carrie has a great eye for where each tile should go. Highly professional, very friendly and the job was completed perfectly! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

    This is a 3x6 beveled white marble backsplash in a kitchen and casita in Peoria. We also changed out all of the outlets and switches to blend with the tile better.

    This is a repair project of a very large 30"x60" porcelain tile. Before, during and after pics. The tile has a big chip in the middle from a heavy cast iron stove grate. I cut it into pieces with my cordless wet saw, then we dug the tile and thinset out, made a template, cut the new tile and replaced it.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-11-21T15:43:11+0000

    Swipe for a before pic. 2'x4' large format porcelain tiles with a very cool texture. It's a little over 5' wide and 13'+ at its peak.

    This is a backsplash we did about a year ago, I think they were waiting for cabinet doors so here we are.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-09-16T00:27:10+0000

    This is one of our favorite fireplace jobs ever. These are 4'x4' porcelain tiles from @thetileshop with black Dural trim. If you make it to the end you'll see a backward transformation to the before picture. We filled in a recess to make a large flat wall.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-09-08T15:30:01+0000

    This is a fireplace in a home getting a full remodel. The 4x4 tiles are mitered on all corners and the large stone tiles on the hearth are mitered as well.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-09-07T22:45:31+0000

    Update on a previous post. Our customer did a German schmeer on her ugly brick hood and I helped her trim it with this black wood trim. What a big difference. It really makes our tile work pop too.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-08-26T22:25:59+0000

    Sneak peak at a tub surround with a nice sized niche. A special thanks to our helper dogs who were always there to lick our legs as we walked by.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-08-19T12:17:49+0000

    This was an adventure for us. More pictures to come. Happy Saturday!

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-08-14T15:38:39+0000

    Revisit to a backsplash we did a few years ago. They actually changed the granite and saved the backsplash. Kudos to the solid surface guys that pulled that off.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-08-14T02:31:01+0000

    More and better pictures to follow but I couldn't wait to post this super cool backsplash. My favorite is the black hex tiles behind the stove. They are changing the hood so when that is complete we'll get better pics

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-08-11T03:09:13+0000

    Very cool 8" hexagons on this modern backsplash. I love the way it goes with the hood.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-07-14T03:13:26+0000

    Nice clean straight stacked glass backsplash with Dural trim. The customer has the outlets moved up which really helps the clean simple look.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-07-09T19:39:51+0000

    Two sides of the same cultured stone fireplace. This was done 12 years ago and still looks great today

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-06-23T20:53:23+0000

    4x4 tile with lots of variation and a hand made look.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-06-23T20:48:34+0000

    This is about 150 square feet of a 2x6 straight stacked shower with a solid surface bench top, niche shelves and curb. Cool hex tiles on the floor.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-04-20T14:31:02+0000

    7x13 Dark Chalk Rhombus with #ardex Charcoal Mist grout. The customer faux finished her outlet covers so they really blend in.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-04-19T02:58:23+0000

    Shower floor transformation. This was a great way to revitalize this shower. The walls were nice and modern but the floor was pretty plain. A new square drain and basket weave tile pattern did the trick.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-04-17T18:05:58+0000

    Love these patterned tiles from #tileshop. There are four patterns and three colors that Emma blended. Check out Jack's outlet cut on the left side. It's in the middle of the tile and he did it with an 8" tile saw.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-04-13T18:23:38+0000

    Fun feature wall we did four years ago. We're doing more work here this week.

    This is a mural over the outdoor fireplace and we also did the teal border and curb on the fountain. Both projects really livened up the area.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-03-24T00:38:11+0000

    We did this job in 2018, it still looks great!

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-03-19T22:40:42+0000

    This is the first video we've done showing a little of a backsplash installation from start to finish. Or as Carrie called it, "before, during and after." We hope to stream line this process but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75onFXReK50

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-02-19T15:22:47+0000

    This was a small but very rewarding job. We got to add color and dress up these three outdoor features. We added the flower tiles with trim to the fireplace. We also did the green and teal borders to the existing fountains.

    PhD Home Solutions️ 2023-02-16T02:18:03+0000
