Professional floor tile installation across Toronto, the GTA, and beyond. We prep substrates to tight tolerances, use uncoupling (DITRA) where appropriate, and set with deformable mortars for flat, durable, heated-floor-ready results. Expect 2 mm grout lines, tidy transitions, and a finish backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty. Need pricing? Start with our cost calculator or request an estimate using our form.
From measurement to finish, these five steps control flatness, joint alignment, and long-term durability.
Tight tolerances and proper coverage for smooth movement.
Ditra where beneficial for movement management
Straight lines, proper coverage, lippage control
Colour-matched grout; planned movement joints
Trims and tidy edges; care guidance
The controls below keep floors flat, seams tight, and edges protected—for a seamless finish that lasts.
Tight tolerances and proper coverage for smooth movement.
Uncoupling where required helps manage movement and sound.
Thoughtful trims and heights at doorways and adjacent floors.
Stain-resistant grout and tidy joints.
Assembly choices that make tile floors feel quiet, solid, and seamless—day after day.
Assembly choices reduce creaks and hollow spots.
Levelling and substrate prep control lippage and keep 2 mm grout lines straight from wall to wall.
Assemblies designed for in-floor heat (e.g., DITRA-HEAT) spread warmth evenly and support sensor placement.
Membranes and proper tie-ins in wet zones manage moisture; flood testing used where required.

We use Ditra uncoupling where required to manage movement, premium mortars for coverage, and high-performance grouts for durable joints. For heated floors we coordinate membranes, sensors and thermostats so the assembly works as one.

Bond strength and flatness start beneath the tile. Proper grinding, patching, or self-levelling creates a uniform plane so joints stay consistent and tiles sit flush. Canadian methods are referenced in the TTMAC 09 30 00 manual. Good prep also reduces hollow sounds, lippage, and premature grout issues.
Larger tiles demand tighter flatness tolerances. We evaluate high/low spots and correct them so long edges align. Compare considerations in large-format tile installation and confirm offsets before setting. Proper flatness delivers straighter lines, fewer callbacks, and smoother transitions at doors and stairs.
Plan cuts at thresholds, centre lines in open areas, and joint widths that fit tile calibre. Neutral grout tones can disguise everyday dust; darker tones often suit entries. Review spacing and colour guidance in tile layout & grout colour and keep offsets ≤33% for long rectangles.
Perimeter gaps and soft joints absorb thermal and structural movement, helping prevent cracked grout. Guidance follows TCNA EJ171. We place them at plane changes, sun-exposed areas, long runs, and material transitions—often finished with low-profile trims for a clean, durable result.
Profiles protect exposed edges and smooth height changes to adjacent flooring. Planned thresholds improve door clearance and reduce trip points. Choose metal or stone trims that match your finish and traffic level. See the end-to-end overview in our process before ordering materials.
Yes—tile pairs well with electric radiant heat. We’re experienced with Schluter® systems (KERDI/DITRA/DITRA-HEAT) and coordinate sensor and thermostat placement with your electrician. Manufacturer details: DITRA-HEAT resources. Heat plans are finalised before levelling to keep thicknesses consistent.
Share photos and approximate square footage by email, or use our calculator to get an estimate. We’ll follow up with next-step options, lead times, and any prep notes if levelling is beneficial for your chosen format and pattern.
Use pH-neutral cleaners and soft pads. Add felt protectors to furniture, door mats at entries, and refresh silicone where planes change. For routines and product tips, see tile care & maintenance. Good upkeep preserves grout tone and keeps edges crisp over time.

Get answers to common questions about floor tile installation
Costs vary based on floor prep, tile size, layout complexity, and transitions. For a fast ballpark without numbers, use our cost calculator to get an estimate and we’ll confirm details after a quick review.
Tile performance starts below the surface. Grinding, patching, or self-levelling creates a consistent plane so grout joints stay even and tile edges sit flush. We align prep to Canadian guidance referenced in the TTMAC 09 30 00 manual and our surface preparation approach.
Larger tiles need tighter flatness control to reduce lippage and keep lines straight. We check high/low spots, correct them, then confirm layout and offsets before setting. For details on how we manage format-specific risks, see large-format tile installation.
We plan cuts at thresholds, maintain consistent joint width, and choose grout colours that suit real-world traffic. For long rectangular tiles, we typically keep offsets ≤33% to reduce edge variation. See tile layout & grout colour for spacing and layout guidance.
Movement joints help manage seasonal and structural change so stress doesn’t concentrate in grout or tile. We plan perimeter gaps and soft joints at plane changes, long runs, sun-exposed areas, and transitions. Industry guidance is summarized in TCNA EJ171.
Yes—prep is often the deciding factor for a flat, comfortable floor. We assess the substrate, then recommend grinding, patching, or self-levelling based on tile format and site conditions. Learn what changes “before vs after” in our surface preparation overview.
Yes—tile pairs well with electric radiant heat when the assembly is coordinated. We’re experienced with Schluter® systems (KERDI/DITRA/DITRA-HEAT) and plan sensor placement and thickness transitions before installation. For manufacturer details, see Schluter® DITRA-HEAT resources.
Most dry areas don’t require full waterproofing, but wet zones and spill-prone areas may benefit from membranes and proper tie-ins. We recommend assemblies based on location, exposure, and substrate condition, then coordinate transitions so heights stay clean. Our end-to-end approach is outlined in our process.
Timing depends on prep scope, tile size, layout complexity, cure times, and access constraints (especially in condos). After a quick review of photos, measurements, and tile selection, we provide a schedule estimate and key milestones. Start with the cost calculator to share project basics.
Walk-on timing depends on the mortar and grout selected, site temperature, and whether levelling or membranes were used. We’ll share practical “access windows” for your space during planning so you can coordinate traffic and furniture. For care after install, see tile care & maintenance.
DIY can work for small, simple rooms if the floor is already flat and cuts are minimal. Hiring a pro is often preferred for large-format tile, significant levelling, heated floors, or tight transitions where tolerances matter. If you’re unsure, use our cost calculator to outline scope and next steps.
Most porcelain formats can perform well when the substrate is prepared correctly. Large-format tile benefits from tighter flatness control and planned offsets; mosaics can suit irregular areas and detailed patterns. We’ll balance appearance, maintenance, and transitions during layout planning—see tile layout & grout colour.
