From first call to final walkthrough — here's how we deliver tile & backsplash installation in Lincoln Park.
Consultation & Measurement
We measure the space, assess substrate condition, discuss tile material and pattern options, and provide a detailed quote with material and labor costs itemized.

Existing tile or flooring is removed if needed. The substrate is leveled, backer board is installed, and waterproof membranes are applied in all wet areas.

Tile is set with proper thinset coverage, spacers ensure consistent joints, and grout is applied and cleaned. Edges are caulked with color-matched sealant.
