Tile is the most versatile flooring there is. Porcelain plank tiles look like hardwood and survive bathrooms. Slab-look porcelain runs continuously across a kitchen and up onto the backsplash. Mosaic accents make a powder room. And good tile, properly installed, lasts as long as the building does.

Why tile

  • Lasts the life of the home

    Properly installed tile easily outlives the rest of the house. It's the only flooring we install that's effectively permanent.

  • Waterproof and worry-free

    Tile is the original waterproof floor. Showers, baths, kitchens, laundries, lanais — wherever water lives, tile thrives.

  • Wood-look options

    Modern porcelain plank tiles look remarkably like real hardwood — at six feet, you can't tell. Wood's warmth, tile's durability.

  • Stone and slab looks

    Marble, travertine, limestone, and slab-look porcelains for a high-end finish. We'll send you to the yard to pick.

  • Easy to clean

    Sealed grout and a dense tile body wipe down with mild cleaner. No special products required for routine care.

  • For walls and showers, too

    We tile shower surrounds, backsplashes, fireplace facades, and full feature walls — coordinated with your floor.

Care

Living with it.

Sweep regularly. Damp-mop with plain water or a pH-neutral tile cleaner. Reseal grout every couple of years to keep it stain-free. Avoid acidic cleaners on natural stone — they etch the surface. Ask in the showroom for the right cleaner for your tile.

Installation

Putting it down.

Tile installs are three to five days for most rooms. Surface prep is the most important step — a flat, sound substrate matters more than any other variable. We use the right setting material for the tile and the application, set tile with proper spacers and joints, and finish with sealed grout. Showers get waterproofing membrane underneath. Our crew has done this for decades.

Tile questions

  • Porcelain or ceramic — what's the difference?

    Porcelain is denser, harder, less porous, and more durable. Ceramic is friendlier on the budget and easier to cut. For floors and wet areas, we usually recommend porcelain. For walls and decorative accents, ceramic is often the right call.

  • Will the grout get dirty?

    Yes, over time, even with sealing. We can recommend grout colors that hide soil, and you can have the grout professionally cleaned every few years. Epoxy grout is another option in high-traffic kitchens — it stays cleaner longer at a slightly higher install cost.

  • Can you put tile over my existing tile?

    Sometimes — but it's rarely the right call. The added height creates problems at doorways and transitions, and you're trusting the old tile's bond. Usually it's worth pulling up the old and starting fresh.

  • Is tile cold in the morning?

    It can be. In Florida it's not usually an issue, but in colder rooms we can install in-floor electric warming under the tile. Doubles the time install but worth it in bathrooms.

  • Where can I get tile installed in Polk County, FL?

    We install porcelain, ceramic, and rectified tile across all of Polk County — Winter Haven, Lakeland, Auburndale, Bartow, Haines City, Davenport, Lake Alfred, and Lake Wales. Kitchens, baths, lanais, and full-floor installs all routine.

  • Do you install tile in lakefront homes around the Chain of Lakes?

    Yes. Lakefront homes around Winter Haven's Chain of Lakes, Lake Ariana in Auburndale, Lake Rochelle in Lake Alfred, and the rest of Polk County's lakefront properties are some of our most common tile installs. Porcelain holds up best in humidity; we steer toward it for kitchens, baths, and covered lanais.
