Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our tile and stone installation processes, waterproofing methods, and subfloor heating options.

What waterproofing systems do you use for showers?

We use professional waterproofing systems designed to protect shower walls, floors, curbs, and niches from water penetration. The system may include a waterproof membrane, properly sloped shower pan, sealed corners and seams, and compatible drain and transition components. We select the appropriate method based on the shower design, substrate, and project requirements, then verify that all surfaces are properly prepared before tile installation begins.

How do I choose between tile and natural stone?

The right choice depends on your preferred style, maintenance expectations, budget, and the location of the installation. Porcelain and ceramic tile offer a wide range of colours and patterns, excellent durability, and generally easy maintenance. Natural stone provides a unique, high-end appearance, but some types require regular sealing and more careful cleaning. We can help you compare samples and select a material that suits your design, lifestyle, and the conditions of the space.

How long does tile installation take?

Tile installation commonly takes several days to two weeks, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Factors include surface preparation, demolition, waterproofing, tile size and pattern, intricate cuts, grout and sealant requirements, and the number of areas being tiled. Shower installations may take longer because the waterproofing system must be installed and allowed to cure before the tile work proceeds. We provide a project-specific timeline before construction begins.

Do you install heated flooring under tile?

Yes, heated flooring can be installed beneath tile in suitable bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas. Electric radiant heating systems are typically installed over a properly prepared subfloor before the tile underlayment and finished flooring are applied. We coordinate the installation with the electrical work, confirm that the system is compatible with the selected tile, and follow the manufacturer’s installation requirements. Heated flooring can provide added comfort, especially during Vancouver’s cooler months.
