What We Deliver
01
Wall Prep

Tile only sticks as well as the surface it's applied to. We apply cement board, waterproofing membrane, or skim-coat as the project requires before a single tile touches the wall.

02
Plumb & Level

Walls are rarely perfectly plumb. We establish true vertical and horizontal references so the tile pattern reads cleanly regardless of what's behind it.

03
Pattern Design

Stacked, offset, herringbone, Versailles — we help you choose and then execute. Complex patterns are dry-laid first so every design decision is confirmed before anything is set.

04
Detailed Cuts

Outlets, switches, niches, corners — wall tile requires precise notch cuts that most installers rush. We take the time to make cuts that look intentional, not improvised.

05
Waterproofing

In wet areas, we don't just tile — we waterproof. Every shower and wet wall gets a continuous membrane behind the tile so water never reaches the structure.

06
Grout & Seal

We grout with matching color, wipe clean, and seal where appropriate. The final wall looks like it was always supposed to be there — tight, clean, and built to last.

Our Wall Tile Installation Process
01
Surface Prep

We demo existing material, inspect for moisture and damage, and apply the correct backer system — cement board, RedGard, or similar — before any tile work begins.

02
Layout & Design

We snap reference lines, confirm the pattern, and dry-set key sections before committing to mortar. No surprises at the end of the job.

03
Set & Grout

Tile is adhered with the correct thin-set, back-buttered where required, and set with consistent joint spacing throughout using spacers or wedges.

04
Finish & Clean

Grout is applied, haze removed, and the completed wall surface inspected under light at multiple angles. Sealed, clean, and ready to use.
