Floors built for Florida heat, humidity and sandy feet.

Heard that tile is cold and dated? Today’s porcelain might surprise you. Here’s the honest breakdown.

1. 1

   Remove and inspect the slab

   We take up the old floor, haul it away and check the slab for cracks and high or low spots.

2. 2

   Level and crack isolation

   We flatten the surface and add a crack-isolation membrane where the slab needs it, so tiles don’t crack later.

3. 3

   Set with leveling clips

   Each tile goes down in full mortar coverage with leveling clips, so edges line up flat, even on large formats.

4. 4

   Grout, seal and clean

   We grout, seal, install trim and clean the haze off, then walk the finished floor with you.

1. 1

   Sweep sand often

   Sand scratches grout and dulls finishes. Sweep or vacuum a few times a week.

2. 2

   pH-neutral cleaner

   Skip bleach and vinegar. A neutral cleaner protects grout and sealer.

3. 3

   Reseal grout

   Inspect grout yearly and reseal when the grout or manufacturer calls for it to keep it stain resistant.

4. 4

   Use rugs at doors

   Mats at entries catch sand and water before they reach the floor.
