Shower and bathroom tile across Wilmington and New Castle County.
A bathroom is the hardest room in a house to tile and the least forgiving of shortcuts, because it is the one room where the tile is doing a job beyond looking right. The work covers shower walls and floors, pans, curbs, niches and benches, along with bathroom floors and wainscot. What happens before the tile matters more than the tile does. A shower floor has to fall to the drain evenly, so the pan is sloped rather than assumed flat, and the waterproofing goes on and gets checked before anything is set over it. Corners, the curb and the joint where wall meets floor are where problems start, so those get the attention rather than the open field in the middle of the wall. Once that is right, the visible work is layout: keeping the wall courses level around the room, landing a niche on a full tile instead of a slice, and getting the floor pattern to sit square to the room. To be plain about scope, this is the tile and surface side of a bathroom. Setting a vanity, a toilet or a shower door back onto finished tile is part of the job; moving a drain, re-piping or running a new circuit is licensed plumbing and electrical work and goes to that trade.
Floor and wall tile, mosaic, marble and pattern work, set to a layout that is planned before anything is stuck down.
02Hardwood, luxury vinyl plank and laminate through living space, laid to run with the room rather than against it.
04Backsplashes and kitchen floors, cut around outlets and cabinet runs so the pattern still reads as one piece.
05Subfloor flattening, old flooring removal and tile repairs, which is where most failed floors actually went wrong.
Tile is not a trade you can rush or hand off halfway. The person who measures your floor is the person who sets it.
Substrate checked flat and sound first, because tile telegraphs every dip and every soft spot beneath it.
Where the full tiles land and where the cuts fall is decided before anything is stuck down.
Set to a line, spaced consistently, then grouted and trimmed so the edges are finished rather than filled.
Where a job crosses into licensed plumbing or electrical, you are told plainly, not sold it.
