Bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms and kitchens are the natural homes for tile. Damp feet, spilled sauce and tracked-in red clay all wipe away without a second thought.
In sunrooms and screened-in porch conversions, tile also stays cool during the long Tennessee summer.
Porcelain is dense and nearly impervious to water, so it is our usual recommendation for floors and showers. Ceramic is lighter and works nicely on walls and low-traffic areas.
Wood-look and stone-look porcelain have gotten very convincing, which lets you have the warmth of oak or the drama of slate without the upkeep.
Tile is unforgiving over a bouncy subfloor. Many Knoxville homes have older joists and thin plywood that need stiffening or an underlayment before tile goes down.
We check deflection, flatten the surface and use the right uncoupling or backer products so grout lines do not crack the first winter.
Installed tile commonly runs about $10 to $20 per square foot in this market. Large formats, intricate patterns, heated floors and custom shower pans move the figure up.
Your written estimate separates tile, setting materials, grout, labor and demolition so you can adjust scope where it makes sense.
Grout color changes how a floor feels, from seamless and modern with tight matching joints to bold and graphic with contrast. We will mock up options for you.
Where sealing is needed, we explain how often to refresh it, and most porcelain floors need little more than regular mopping.
After your free estimate we confirm layout, order material and schedule demolition. Setting, curing and grouting happen in sequence so each stage has time to cure properly.
Expect a few more days than a floating floor, and we tell you early about cure times so you can plan around the bathroom being out of commission.
Co-owner Reid Zuchowski brings a contractor's eye for straight lines and tight details, which matters when a crooked grout line stares at you every morning.
We use in-house installers, stand behind labor with a lifetime warranty and offer financing if a bigger bath remodel needs spreading out.

It can be, but radiant heating mats are an option in bathrooms and kitchens if you want warm feet.
Yes, we install shower walls, backsplashes and accent walls in addition to floors.
Typically a day after grouting for light use, and longer before the shower is exposed to water, depending on the products used.
