Where tile earns its keep in Louisville homes

Where tile earns its keep in Louisville homes

In a humid river-valley climate, a bathroom or mudroom floor takes constant abuse. Tile does not care about steam, splashes or a dripping raincoat.

Many customers also like the cool feel of tile in summer, especially in sunrooms and kitchens that face the afternoon sun.

Porcelain, ceramic and natural stone

Porcelain, ceramic and natural stone

Porcelain is dense and nearly impervious to water, which is why it is our usual recommendation for floors. Ceramic suits walls and lighter-duty spaces, and natural stone brings character if you are willing to seal and maintain it.

Large-format tile, wood-look planks and soft-patterned cement looks are the styles most requested right now. Grout color and joint width change the feel a lot, so we talk those through with samples in hand.

What tile costs

What tile costs

Installed tile commonly runs about $10 to $20 per square foot, with simple ceramic near the bottom and detailed patterns, stone or showers near the top. Prep and waterproofing are a real part of that figure.

We write the full estimate with materials and labor separated, so you see where every dollar goes before you agree to anything.

The work under the tile

The work under the tile

Tile cracks when the floor beneath it flexes. We check deflection, add backer board or an uncoupling membrane when the situation calls for it, and level the surface so tiles sit flat.

In older Louisville houses with wood framing over a crawlspace, this step can save you from hairline cracks in year two.

From demo to finished grout lines

From demo to finished grout lines

Our crew handles demolition, prep, setting, grouting and sealing as one coordinated job. Tile takes longer than plank products because setting and curing cannot be rushed, and we give you an honest schedule up front.

When we finish, we clean the haze off, check every edge and walk the room with you.
