Porcelain, ceramic and natural stone tile laid on a flat, stable base with neat grout lines and clean transitions.
Tile is a classic kitchen floor for good reasons: it handles water, heat and heavy use, and it comes in an almost endless range of colors, sizes and patterns. Large-format porcelain looks sleek and modern, patterned cement-look tile adds personality and wood-look tile gives warmth with easy care. In Nashville homes where families cook, entertain and track in the outdoors, tile can handle all of it. The difference between a good tile floor and a disappointing one, though, is almost entirely in the preparation.
We check the floor for flatness and flexibility and correct problems with leveling or added underlayment, since tile cracks on a bouncy or uneven base. We plan the layout so that cuts are balanced and the pattern lines up with doorways and cabinets, choose appropriate setting materials and grout and install with consistent joints. Heated floor cable can be added underneath. Grout is sealed where needed, transitions to other floors are built cleanly and we explain care so the floor looks good for years.
