Can Arnold's come out quickly if I need urgent tile or concrete work?

Yes. One reviewer reported same-day tile replacement in their kitchen. Arnold typically responds to calls quickly and provides written quotes and timelines within 24 hours.

Do they stand behind their work, and does it last?

Reviewers consistently report durability. One customer had a patio repaired six years after the original installation; another noted sealing from a bulkhead repair held through heavy rain. They are licensed and insured.

Will they pressure me to spend more than I need to?

Multiple reviewers note Arnold declines upselling and works within customer budgets. He educates customers on options, gives honest cost advice, and still delivers quality work on smaller jobs.
