Bragg Construction and Remodeling has been providing professional Tile flooring installations for over 30 years. The old vinyl floor was removed. The dry rot and carpenter ant damage were repaired, (and exterminated). New cement board has been glued and nailed to the repaired sub floor. The Tile flooring has been professionally installed.
