Tile & Flooring
Tile and flooring installation for kitchens, baths and high-traffic areas, with proper prep and layout.
Overview
Tile and flooring take the most daily wear of any surface in a home. A lasting install depends on a flat, sound subfloor, the right underlayment or membrane, and a layout that plans the seams and transitions.
We prep the substrate, plan the layout to avoid slivers and awkward cuts, and install with proper thin-set, spacing and grout for a floor or tile surface that holds up.
