As professional tile contractors, we are certified installers of waterproof shower systems that effectively manage moisture and prevent mold growth.
Thin-set and large & heavy tile mortars are designed specifically to install ceramic or stone tile products, but they were never intended to patch or “fix" uneven walls or floors. As professional tile contractors, we use proper patching and self-leveling products to provide a surface that will be suitable for installing tile within the prescribed tolerances by industry standards.
We are professional installers of electric floor warming systems that directly incorporate uncoupling technology to ensure that floors aren't susceptible to cracked tiles and grout. Cables can be placed wherever heat is desired for customized heating zones, including shower floors.
Professional tile installation provides a permanent finish but its true quality is deeply influenced by the stability, permanence, and precision of installation of the backing or base materials. Evaluation of tile & stone work only by its aesthetic appearance is understandable when it comes to homeowners who have little technical knowledge, but truly professional tile contractors must rely upon much deeper criteria which is as simple as this, "Is the preparation and installation work done per the current industry standards?"
The natural stone you have in your home, office, or commercial building is an investment that will give you many years of beautiful service.
