Tile Work We Can Match You With
Bathroom Floors
The one room where tile is not really optional. Standing water, humidity, and daily cleaning are exactly what tile handles best.
Curbless Shower Conversions
A shower with no step to lift your foot over. Easier to use with bad knees, safer for elderly parents, and it makes a small bathroom look bigger.
Kitchen Floors
Tile survives dropped pots, spills, and a mop every other day. Cold underfoot, which is why some people choose luxury vinyl plank instead.
Backsplashes
The visible upgrade with the smallest price tag in a kitchen. Usually a one-day job.
Outdoor Patio Tile
Exterior-rated tile for covered patios and porches. Not the same product as indoor tile, and installing the wrong one is how patios crack.
Waterproofing & Prep
What goes under the tile decides whether the bathroom leaks in five years. This is the part a cheap bid quietly skips.

What Tile Costs Installed
Tile is priced per square foot installed, and it swings more than any other flooring because labor depends on the tile size, the pattern, and how much prep the room needs. Here is where it sits against the other materials:
- Carpet, including new padding $2 – $8
- Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) $5 – $12
- Laminate $5 – $12
- Engineered hardwood $6 – $15
- Solid hardwood $8 – $30
Small mosaic tile, herringbone patterns, and full bathroom waterproofing all push toward the top of that range.
Do I Have to Speak English to Get This Done?
No. Our flooring partner does not have a Korean-speaking crew, so that part is our job. We translate the quote line by line, explain what the warranty actually covers, and make sure you know the total before you put any money down. You will never sign something you cannot read.
Frequently Asked Questions
A shower with no raised lip at the entry, so the floor runs straight in. There is nothing to step over, which matters a lot for older parents and anyone with knee or balance problems.
Most people think so. Tile belongs in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and entryways. Bedrooms are usually carpet or luxury vinyl plank.
Porcelain is denser, absorbs less water, and holds up better in wet areas and outdoors. Ceramic costs less and is fine on a low-traffic wall or backsplash.
Longer than a plank floor. Tile needs setting time and grout needs curing time, so plan on the room being out of use for several days.
Almost always the waterproofing and the prep underneath. Tile set over an unprepared surface looks identical on day one and fails on year three.
Yes. You pay nothing to get matched or to get quotes. Contractors pay us only when they win work.
Yes. Options include 0 percent for 21 months, home equity lines of credit, secured and unsecured loans, and a plan for homeowners about to sell where you pay nothing up front and settle at closing within 12 months. All financing is subject to credit approval.
Usually not. The minimum is about a full room. For one cracked plank or a carpet burn, a handyman is a better fit and cheaper for you.
