IT’S TIME FOR INSTALLATION!
We are so excited to help you enjoy your new tile! For the
smoothest process possible, make sure to do the following:
- Remove all furniture, electronics, wall hangings from the rooms & closets receiving new tile.
- Take down doors & trim from the rooms & closets as well.
- Designate an area for worker's tools, mixing grout, and cutting tile as needed.
- Make arrangements for pets & children to be out of the rooms and worker's area on your tile installation day.
Tile Installation Checklists
When your home is prepared for every step, your family will experience minimal displacement during this exciting time! Follow these helpful steps before, during, and after tile installation.
New tile cannot be installed over other flooring, so the existing floors will need to be removed entirely and disposed of. All imperfections in the subfloor will need to be repaired to ensure a completely flat surface.
Make sure to be on-hand during the tile installation process to help answer any questions that arise for your crew. Establish the adequate ventilation that your installers recommend to offset any adhesive or grout smells.
Wait the recommended period before walking on the new tile. The grout needs time to cure, and the floors need time to set, in order to ensure an even surface. Always lift furniture or use rollers when returning pieces to avoid scratches.
