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.
Homes in North York often include a mix of high-rise condos, townhomes, and established residential properties. Many projects involve concrete slabs, occupied spaces, and tighter access coordination compared to ground-up construction.
Careful scheduling, dust containment, sound considerations, and precise substrate correction are especially important in these environments to keep projects moving smoothly and minimise disruption.
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 in North York and surrounding areas.
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.
