Our Tile Floor Installation Services

Tile floor installation requires proper subfloor preparation to prevent water damage and to ensure a long-lasting floor. Whether it’s cement board or a tile backer base, we make sure we have all the necessary materials for installation. For heavy tile like slate, we make sure the floor has the necessary reinforcements for proper installation.

Once the tile is laid and the mortar has set, we fill the grout lines. Since grout needs a few weeks to completely cure, we’ll come back and apply a grout sealant, if necessary, to prevent stains.

Our experts install:

Ceramic tile flooring
Slate tile flooring
Cork tile flooring
Porcelain tile flooring
Marble tile floorings
And more!

5 things to do when hiring an installer

Installing tile might seem like a simple DIY project, but with difficult applications or complicated patterns it doesn’t take much for it all to go wrong. Once tile is slightly misplaced or applied incorrectly, the whole thing is thrown off. Tile installation mistakes are tough to cover up and fixing them often requires ripping up all the tile and starting from scratch.

Hiring a professional tile installer is always a good idea and sometimes necessary if you are installing tile with a complex pattern or special edging. But finding the right installer can feel overwhelming. Who should you hire?

Here are five things to do that will help you find a high-quality tile installer.

FIND SOMEONE WITH EXPERIENCE
While it may feel tempting to hire a handyman, carpenter or other non-tile expert, resist the urge and hire someone with at least three years of experience installing tile, someone with a proven record in both floor and wall tile.

TALK TO THE PROFESSIONALS
While you’re out shopping for tile, take advantage of the wealth of knowledge that contractors, architects, designers, and showroom sales people have. They have experience working directly with qualified installers and can point you to people they know and trust.

Consider talking to a commercial contractor as well. The clear majority of tile sold in the U.S. goes into commercial buildings—they are some of the most experienced professionals and they know the best tile installers.

FIND A LICENSED INSTALLER
Always verify that your prospective Colorado Springs tile installer is certified, licensed, and has current insurance. Membership in the NTCA (National Tile Contractors Association) is a necessity for a pro-grade job. Also check out whether your prospective installer has training through the Ceramic Tile Education Foundation (CTEF). The CTEF provides training and assessments for installers and certifies they are equipped with the latest techniques for a growing and changing tile industry.

ASK THE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS
Asking the right questions can help you learn a lot about prospective tile installers. Remember to ask these key questions:

•    How long will the project take?
•    How much tile is needed?
•    How many people will be working on the project?
•    Have you ever worked on projects like this before (large format tile, wood look, etc.)

ASK TO SEE PICTURES OF COMPLETED PROJECTS
Ask your perspective tile installer to see pictures of completed projects or look them up on social media. Look closely and you can tell the work of a good installer from a great one.

The tiles should have even spacing and perfectly straight grout lines. Make sure the layout is balanced and that cut tiles are the same size even if they are on opposite ends of the room. Pay attention to windows, doors and corners, as these are the trickiest places to work around and are a good indication of the tile installer’s skill level. Large gaps, too much grout or any ill-fit

Why Ceramic Tile Installation Certification?

Let's Start with Certification CTEF: Qualified Labor, Certification, Tile Industry Recognized
Certification identifies an installer as being a dedicated and knowledgeable professional whose competence in installing tile has been verified to meet specific tile industry standards.

In the case of the Ceramic Tile Education Foundation, the Certified Tile Installer program is a rigorous program that tests expertise, how well the installer keeps up with the fast-changing world of tile - from thin tile to very large-sized tile to new installation materials and tools - and how knowledgeable he or she is about tile installation best practices.

The Advanced Tile Installer Certifications take tile installation expertise and knowledge to an even higher level.

Both certifications help separate talented and expert tile installers from those who create the type of situations described in How Not to Install Tile on Floors, Walls and in Showers.

What Does Qualified Labor Mean?
These certified tile installers - as a result of their professional certifications and affiliations - are considered Qualified Labor. Qualified labor refers to having the most qualified professional perform the scope of the work you are specifying rather than basing the decision on the lowest price.

The Tile Council of North America Handbook committee strongly recommends using installers who have demonstrated their commitment to their craft and taken the time to stay current with the latest materials and methods.  Because tile is a permanent finish, the lowest bid should not be the driving factor, but rather who is the most qualified to perform the scope of the work specified.

Certified Tile Installers know where to find the best tile industry resources, have open-line access to industry experts, stay up-to-date with the latest methods, materials and best practices. and regularly refer to the following guides:

The TCNA Handbook for Ceramic Tile Installation
The American National Standard Specifications for the Installation of Ceramic Tile, also called the ANSI standards
The National Tile Contractors (NTCA) Reference Manual
