Our process
We will demolish the old to build the new and improved. Some tile companies require you to hire a separate flooring remover company before the tile is laid. Not us. Our team is prepared to remove your old flooring, current shower and bathtub setup and anything else that needs to go before we lay your new tile.
How we work:
1. Demolition: when remodeling, the old must go before the new can come in. Our team is experienced in the demo and disposal. By maintaining a clean workspace, everything gets done quickly and efficiently. We will discuss how to keep your household items and belongings clean and protected if they are located within the range of our workspace. We will also discuss trash removal with you, depending on the size of the project, so that your home remains litter-free during the remodel process.
2. Preparation: After we are finished outstalling and removing the old, we will begin the preparation phase of your tile installation. This includes establishing a strong, flat surface on which the tile will lay. We will confirm which tile foundation, or substrate, we are going to use. Common substrates include plywood, drywall, concrete or cement. It all depends on the space we will intall and the type of tile we will be installing. We make sure that the substrate we have chosen is clean and free from dirt, oil or moisture so that the tile adheres strongly and properly. This stage also includes the leveling of the substrate surface. We need a flat substrate to properly lay tile. If the substrate isn't flat, the tiles may crack or chip when weight is applied to them. It's a crucial part of the entire job and we work meticulously and with close attention to detail to ensure that the surface we will tile is flat and level. Lastly, we will waterproof the surface so water doesn't leak through. If the area we are tiling will encounter water frequently, like a shower floor, kitchen, or tile sink basin, we will use a waterproofing method to protect what lies underneath the tile from water damage.
3. Installation: now comes the fun part. This is when all of the pieces begin to come together. During installation, we will lay your tile on the flat substrate that we have created held securely with an adhesive. By this point, we have finalized the layout and cut our tile, knowing where each and every piece of tile will end up for a seamless, polished finish. We love this part of the process. All of the hard work comes together to create your new tile surface!
Tile installation cost
It really depends on the project and the most accurate way to get an estimation is to contact us for a free quote with the specific project you have in mind!
Some factors include: Which area are you wanting tiled? How large is the space being tiled? Are there things in the way that will need to be removed and reinstalled after the job is finished? How large or small are the tiles? Even on a big tiling area, like a living room floor, if the tiles are large, for example, wood look tiles that are plank-length and width, the project will be less expensive than tiling a shower with tiles that are 2" by 2". Smaller tiles generally equal a higher cost as they take much more time to install. What is the type of tile? Mosaic and glass tiles require far more preparation and experience during installation than ceramic or porcelain tiles do. If you are wanting mosaic or glass tiles for your tiling dream project, make sure that you go with tile installers who are experienced in working with these trickier tiles. Our team of tile contractors have more than a decade of experience working with specialty tiles.
As for the tiles themselves, ceramic tiles are generally the most inexpensive options for tiling jobs. Porcelain and porcelain wood tile come next. Glass and slate tiles tend to run higher, and mosaic and glass tiles usually top off the cost chart.
