Tile headaches

Why tile fails and how we prevent it

Good tile needs good prep. We focus on that first.

Cracks and hollow spots

Weak subfloors or bad mortar leave tiles loose and noisy.

Uneven lines and lippage

Rushed layout and leveling make grout lines wander and tiles sit uneven.

Stains and leaks

Poor waterproofing and sealing let water and grout haze ruin the look.

Our fix: Solid underlayment, careful layout, and clean grouting so your tile looks straight and stays put.

We prep the base, set clean lines, and seal right so the finish stays sharp.

What moves pricing

What changes the cost of a tile project

Scope, access, and finish choices shift the final number.

Existing conditions

Rotten subfloors, uneven slabs, or mold add prep and safety steps.

Material and finish level

Large format, stone, or custom trims cost more and can add lead time.

Access and scheduling

Tight stairs, high-rises, or off-hours work need extra labor and staging.

Complexity and coordination

Patterns, niches, heat mats, or glass and plumbing tie-ins shift time and cost.

Cleanup and protection needs

Occupied homes need more protection and daily resets to keep paths clean.

We price with you upfront and flag any changes right away. No surprises.

I hired Mike and his crew to remove an old builder bathtub, tiles, and shower plumbing and build me a brand new stand up shower. They built me everything I wanted and it was absolutely beautiful. They worked from morning till night to deliver on time and on budget. I highly recommend them.

Had the pleasure of getting my bathroom done with Mike and his team. Wanted to convert my bathtub into a walk in shower and Mike was able to come out to Milton and provide an estimate and a timeline. The bathroom turned out great and the team was professional, on time, polite, and flexible with mid renovation changes and my schedule.
