Tile Installation

When it comes to tile installation, these days there are so many things to know.

Not too long ago there was only a handful of different ceramic tiles and a few common sizes. The installation materials were basic and also limited to a few options. The Tile Installer’s job was very repetitive and after some time of doing the same thing over and over it became a quick and fairly painless process. A shower or bathtub surround could be installed very quickly. Floors also went in fast, with large ¼” grout joints and again, only a handful of basic tile options.

Fast forward 40 years to today’s average jobsite and we see the complete opposite! Ceramic tile has evolved in many ways and expanded in many directions. When shopping for new tile people are often overwhelmed by the vast amount of design options, sizes, differences in materials and endless combinations. With many of these choices and new tiles come more need-to-know information, new materials, specific materials for specific tiles, etc.

Porcelain tile manufacturers can now create tiles up to ten feet long and 5 feet wide! These “Gauged Porcelain Tile Panels” are gaining popularity and come with a whole new variety of challenges, installation tools and materials. With the added expense of these tiles and the higher probability for breakage, you definitely want to ensure you hire a contractor who is prepared with the knowledge, correct tools, and materials for the tile installation.

On the other end of the tile spectrum, we see hand made clay or ceramic tiles, glass tile, mosaics, paper-faced glass tile, cement, and encaustic tile. Of course, there’s always the timeless look of natural stone and marble tile. With each of these options comes a slightly different approach to preparation and installation. Certain installation materials are designed with specific tiles in mind. In some cases using the wrong materials can lead to a tile failure. We want to help you avoid a tile failure. We see far too many of these, and they are completely avoidable.

We are happy to discuss the many different options you have when choosing your tile. We can provide you with a step-by-step consultation on how we will approach your unique project. You might be wondering what tile choices are best suited for your child’s bathroom vs your master bathroom, and we can help you navigate the tile maze!

We had WNA Tile & Design renovate two of our bathrooms and we are super happy with the results. The tile work in both walk in showers are amazing and are show home worthy. Thanks for the great work.

We got Trevor to install our subway tile in our shower and he did an amazing job! He is very professional and easy to deal with. He did exactly what we had envisioned. We liked his work so much we got him to come back and install floor tile in the same bathroom. The floor also turned out perfectly. We will be using him to do our kitchen backsplash as well in the near future. I would 100 percent recommend Trevor !

Trevor at WNA Tile and Design did an amazing job on our kitchen tile backsplash! Right from the beginning, he was professional and reliable. He had many options to choose from for grout color and schluter and offered his opinion on what would look best and what would really draw someone's eye to a focal point in the kitchen. It is very obvious that he kepts attention to detail and takes pride in his work. Even after the work was completed, he came back to touch up what he "felt" was not perfect but wasn't even noticeable to us. When guests see our newly renovated kitchen, they comment first on how stunning the backsplash is. He did not disappoint and we certainly are very pleased that we decided to go with him. Highly recommended!

Trevor and his team installed a heated floor system and laid a complicated tile pattern in our porch area and it looks and feels amazing. We love having the additional heated floor space for family and friends and for us of course 😉 They exceeded our expectations delivering what they promised...on time and even a bit below the estimate he provided. We highly recommend Trevor and WNA Tile design.

First time using this company, and will definitely use them again. We needed two bathrooms redone with tile. Quoted price was very reasonable and ended up being accurate. The work was completed when they said it would be, and the results are perfect. We were very impressed with the attention to detail displayed. They are also very helpful with suggesting designs or options that we would not have thought of but turned out great. It’s very helpful to have someone with a lot of knowledge to discuss and plan the project with for those of us who don’t know much about tile work, design or renovations in general. The fact that there is a lifetime warranty on the shower tile installation is an added bonus. Really I can’t say enough good things about this company and their work. Highly recommended.

I have used Trevor twice now. Each job was completed on time and on budget. The crew was very courteous as we were home during one of the projects. We barely knew they were working while we were in the house. The quality and attention to detail proved that they take pride in their work. They even went out of their way to seek options and warranty possibilities as one of our project was fixing a leaky shower installed by another contractor. In the end they saved me thousands off of the job. The bottom line is; I would use them again and again. In this day and age it is hard to find reliable help. Here it is. The only short fall I felt was on my part. I feel we could have helped Trevor decide on some design options, but we trusted his judgement. The showers turned out amazing!

The quality in the work, and attention to detail is immaculate and really speaks for itself. Always professional and will always stand behind the quality of his work. I picked a more “complicated tile” for the base but he spent the time figuring out how to make it work as I had my heart set on it. I really cannot say enough good things and would highly recommend.

WNA have remodelled various rooms in my house. The latest was a complete bathroom renovation. The tile work in the walk in shower is flawless. It is outfitted with rain and telephone shower heads including overhead LED lights and heated tiled floor. I am a repeat customer and will be calling them up for the next project. So I highly recommend them for your next project.
