Our Standard Procedure for Tile Installation and Tile Replacement in Memphis
First, we conduct a thorough assessment of the area to determine the scope of the project. Next, we'll discuss various options for replacing and installing tiles with you, taking into account their preferences and budget. Then, we proceed with the actual replacement and installation, ensuring that the work is completed to the client's satisfaction. We conduct a thorough final inspection to verify that the new system you choose has been installed correctly and adheres to your standards.
The timing of our service appointments is tailored to meet your specific needs and objectives. However, for replacement and installation services, we generally adhere to the following process:
Floor Tile Installation:
- Surface preparation: We meticulously inspect and thoroughly cleanse the designated area in which the tiles are to be installed or repaired. Our utmost priority is to ensure that the surface is perfectly level, devoid of any damage, and precisely positioned. If you have existing tiles that must be removed in the replacement process, our team will rely on our specialized tools to carefully and safely remove all existing sheets and grout.
- Subfloor preparation: Next, we'll clean and inspect your subfloor. If it is uneven, we'll use a leveling compound to correct it. If necessary, we will also install an underlayment.
- Application of thinset: This is the adhesive solution that will adhere your tiles to the floor. Various types of thinset are available, depending on factors such as the use of a tile membrane or the application of tiles to a cement backer board. We'll mix the thinset mortar thoroughly to get rid of air pockets and then spread it using a notched-edge trowel.
- Installation process: Our skilled team is committed to providing you with a flawless installation process. To ensure precise alignment, we will utilize spacers and meticulously lay each sheet on a bed of thinset. As we work, we will diligently remove any excess thinset from the surface using a damp sponge. Furthermore, we will expertly cut the tiles to perfectly fit around any fixture, ensuring a seamless and polished result.
- Application of grout: After the thinset has completely cured for a full day, we can proceed by eliminating the spacers and administering the grout with a rubber float. Then, we will utilize a moist sponge to even out the grout lines and eliminate any surplus grout from the tile surface.
- Finishing touches: When the grout has fully cured, we can apply sealant to the joint between your tiles and baseboards. If necessary, we'll also apply a grout sealant.
