Large-Format Tile Installation questions, answered
Do you install large-format and slab-style tile?
Yes, it is one of our specialties. Large-format tile requires a flattened substrate, specialized handling, and lippage control. We have the experience and tooling to set it dead flat.
Why does large-format tile need special prep?
The bigger the tile, the more any dip or hump in the substrate shows up as lippage, uneven edges you can feel. We flatten the substrate to tight tolerances and use leveling systems so the finished surface is perfectly flat.
Can large-format tile go on walls and showers?
Yes. We install large-format on feature walls, fireplaces, and shower surrounds, with proper waterproofing in wet areas and mitered corners for a seamless look.
