Our Tile Flooring Installation Process

01

Substrate Evaluation

Subfloor is inspected for flatness, structural integrity, and moisture. Deflection is the #1 cause of tile cracking — we address it first.

02

Layout Planning

Tile layout is planned to center patterns and minimize small cuts at visible borders.

03

Tile Setting

Tile is set in large-format mortar (large tiles) or thinset with proper coverage, keeping joints consistent throughout.

04

Grouting & Sealing

Grout is applied, excess cleaned, and natural stone or porous grout is sealed for stain resistance.

Tile Flooring Installation FAQ for Memphis Homeowners

How often should Memphis homeowners get tile flooring installation?
Given Memphis's hot, humid summers averaging 91°f with high dewpoints, most homeowners benefit from tile flooring installation at least once a year. Year-round termite swarm monitoring (very high pressure) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Memphis most need tile flooring installation?
Brick and wood-frame bungalows throughout Shelby County and Ranch-style homes in suburban Collierville and Germantown are the most common home types in Memphis and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
What causes floor tiles to crack?
Subfloor deflection (movement) is the most common cause. Grout cracks are usually deflection; tile cracks indicate more serious movement. Proper subfloor prep and appropriate tile size for the subfloor are critical for crack-free results.
What size grout joint should I use?
Larger tiles (12x12 and up) require at least a 3/16 inch joint to account for size variation. Small tiles can use 1/16–1/8 inch joints. Rectified tiles (precision cut) allow very narrow joints for a modern look.
Can tile be installed over existing tile?
Sometimes, if the existing tile is firmly bonded and the added height works with transitions and door clearances. It adds risk — any existing loose tiles will eventually telegraph through.
How long does tile installation take to complete?
Setting tile takes 1–3 days for a typical bathroom or kitchen floor. Grouting happens after mortar cures (24–48 hours). Grout sealing adds another 24–48 hours.
