Complete residential and commercial tile installation services in Ajax.
Ajax tile floors frequently run through connected family spaces where continuity matters. We plan prep and transitions so grout alignment stays consistent and the finished floor feels practical for daily use.
Porcelain slab installation for showers, fireplaces, and feature walls requiring advance planning and precise handling. Panel layout is coordinated early to manage cuts, seams, and visual continuity.
Curbless shower tile installation focused on accurate slope and seamless transitions. Waterproofing and substrate preparation support barrier-free access and long-term performance.
Ajax bathroom renovations often include heated floors as a comfort upgrade. We coordinate layout and testing early so the system integrates cleanly under tile without complicating finish details.
Mosaic and small-format tile used for bathrooms and detail areas where proportion matters. Patterns are adjusted to room dimensions so layouts feel intentional rather than busy.
Large-format tile suited to open floor plans common in homes, where flatness and alignment are critical. Substrate correction is addressed before layout to keep surfaces visually calm and comfortable to walk on.
Fireplace tile selected and installed with heat exposure in mind. Layout and edge detailing are planned so the installation complements the surrounding architecture.
Backsplash tile installation coordinated around existing cabinetry and electrical layouts common in Ajax homes. Clean detailing helps renovated kitchens feel cohesive and intentional.

Quality tile installation depends on more than the tile itself. Substrate preparation, waterproofing, layout planning, and finishing details all influence how a tiled surface performs over time. Our approach follows established standards and proven systems outlined in our process, with careful planning before any tile is set.
Large-format floors for open-plan living.
Porcelain slab showers & feature walls with vein continuity.
Backsplashes from classic subway to hex and stacked designs.
Heated floors in ensuites and basements.
Tile reflects the surface beneath it. If a floor or wall is uneven, those imperfections often become visible after installation. Proper surface preparation corrects flatness, manages deflection, and creates a stable base that supports tile long-term.
This step is especially important for large-format tile, which requires tighter tolerances to reduce lippage and maintain clean sightlines across open spaces.
Tile and grout are not waterproof on their own. Wet areas rely on a continuous waterproofing system behind the tile to manage moisture and protect surrounding structures.
Installations typically follow Canadian guidance such as TTMAC 09 30 00, using sheet or liquid-applied membranes selected for the specific application.
Layout planning determines how tile aligns with walls, fixtures, and focal points. Thoughtful planning helps balance grout lines, reduce awkward cuts, and ensure patterns read cleanly throughout the space.
This is particularly noticeable on feature walls, backsplashes, and large continuous floor runs.
Yes. Large-format tiles place greater demands on substrate flatness, adhesive coverage, and lippage control. Floors and walls are often corrected before installation to meet tighter tolerances.
These steps help ensure edges align properly and surfaces feel smooth underfoot once the space is in use.
Tile assemblies expand and contract with changes in temperature and moisture. Movement joints allow this natural movement to occur without stressing the tile or grout.
Placement follows industry guidance such as TCNA EJ171 and is planned during layout to avoid visible disruption.
Electric heated floor systems are installed before tiling begins and embedded beneath the tile surface. Layout, testing, and protection of the system occur before tile is set.
Systems such as DITRA-HEAT are commonly used in bathrooms, kitchens, and basements.
Ajax projects often involve connected interior spaces where continuity matters. Planning layouts, transitions, and prep across adjoining rooms helps keep the finished work consistent and practical for everyday living.
When installed on a properly prepared substrate with correct waterproofing and movement joints, tile surfaces are designed to perform for decades.
Longevity depends on installation quality, material choice, and routine care rather than the tile alone.
Routine cleaning and periodic grout maintenance help preserve tile appearance over time. Product-specific care guidance is typically provided after installation.

Get answers to common questions about tile installation, waterproofing, and our services
Most residential tile installations take several days, depending on room size, surface preparation, waterproofing, and tile type. Bathrooms and showers often require extra time for membrane installation, curing, and finishing. A clear timeline is typically outlined during the estimate process.
Showers are usually ready for use after adhesives and grout have fully cured. This commonly takes several days after installation, depending on products used and site conditions. Your installer should confirm safe use timing before handover.
Yes. Showers and wet areas require a continuous waterproofing system beneath tile to manage moisture and protect surrounding structures. Sheet and liquid-applied membranes are commonly used and must align with Canadian standards and manufacturer instructions.
Professional installation helps avoid issues like uneven surfaces, water intrusion, and premature failure. Complex layouts, waterproofing, and large-format tile benefit most from experienced installers who understand tolerances and long-term performance.
Porcelain and ceramic tiles are commonly used in bathrooms due to their durability and moisture resistance. Material choice also depends on slip resistance, maintenance preferences, and compatibility with the waterproofing system.
In some cases, tile can be installed over existing surfaces if they are sound, clean, and flat within tolerance. Height buildup and substrate condition must be evaluated during the estimate to determine suitability.
Large-format tile requires tighter flatness tolerances than standard tile to reduce lippage. Floors are often levelled or corrected before installation to meet manufacturer and industry requirements.
Yes. Electric in-floor heating systems are commonly installed beneath tile and are well-suited to bathrooms, kitchens, and basements. System selection and layout are planned before tiling begins.
Grout typically cures within a day or two, but full strength and moisture resistance can take longer. Cure time depends on grout type, temperature, and humidity, and should be respected before heavy use.
Tile installation costs vary based on tile size, surface preparation, waterproofing requirements, and project complexity. The easiest way to understand scope and budget is to get an estimate tailored to your space.
Movement joints allow tile assemblies to expand and contract safely. Their placement depends on room size, substrate, and exposure, and follows established industry guidelines.
