Help with finding someone for a one-day tiling job

The contractor that I've been using to renovate my bathroom has had to suddenly leave town until early December (death in the family). Unfortunately, there's still about a day's worth of tiling work to be done to finish up; the last few feet of the top of the shower surround, and a bit of the sink backsplash (and then everything needs grouting). It's a straight-forward job with simple 2x2 white tile, although there's a fair amount of cutting to do, as she did the easy bits first. ;-)

Does anybody have any recommendations for someone who could do a small job like this soon (as in, sometime in the next couple of weeks)?

I've used Kris Routt (handyman) for my bathroom re-tiling project and he did a beautiful job. 617-230-5050.

We had a good experience with Sergio Deassis of Sergio's Renovations (Medford). We had a sort of emergency shower plumbing situation (we only have the one shower), right before Thanksgiving. They had to disassemble the wall, and it turns out they don't make that kind of tile any more and I was kind of freaking that we'd have one wall of our shower that looked totally unlike the other walls, but they salvaged every single tile so they could put them all back and it looked like it always had. Only with, you know, functional plumbing. Within a couple of days of when we called them, even with the holiday.
