    Never used the color match caulk that I had paid for in the quote and left pieces of cut tile in my yard

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a floor joist?
    A floor joist is the support layer below your subfloor and is either solid or engineered wood. The wider apart they are, the greater the bounce. This makes the floor less suitable for tile installation because the tile could break, bend, or crack. Our Dover tile installers will know if your floor joists are able to support tile before beginning the installation process.
    How much tile will I need?
    Our measure technicians in Dover will measure your floors to provide an accurate quote based on the exact tile you select. Our professional measurement starts at $35, which is credited toward the cost of your tile project.
    What is the difference between glazed and unglazed tiles?
    Unglazed tiles are more resistant to scratches and slips than glazed tiles, offering a less shiny, often matte appearance. Typically, unglazed tiles are more porous, making them more susceptible to absorbing oil, dirt, or water. Glazed tiles usually have a shiny finish, although they can also be found with a matte glaze. Glazed tiles have an additional layer of liquid glass applied to the top. Glazed tiles also are more stain-resistant than unglazed and come in a larger variety of colors and styles.
    Is underlayment required when tile floors are installed?
    Underlayment is not required when having tile flooring installed, but we recommend it.
    Can you install tile on drywall?
    Yes, we can install tile on drywall as long as it is not an area that is exposed to excessive amounts of moisture and water. Accent walls and backsplashes are great candidates for tile installation when properly prepared. Our experts will ensure that your drywall is clean and free of any damage prior to starting the project, which will extend the lifespan of your tile installation.
    How do I clean tile flooring?
    Caring for your new tile flooring is easy. To remove dirt, sweep the tile and grout with a soft bristle broom. Using the brush attachment, vacuum any remaining dirt or dust particles. Always vacuum or sweep before mopping the tile floor. Wipe up spills and wet spots with a cleaning cloth as soon as possible. Your local installer can walk you through additional maintenance and care details for your specific tile.

    Tile Care & Maintenance


    Caring for your floor tile is simple. Basic cleaning techniques work for all tile types. Just use water and a soft sponge to clean up spills and sweep up any loose debris. If using a tile cleaner, be sure to try it on an isolated area of tile before applying it to a larger area. Sealing your tile can also help make cleaning easy, as it creates a waterproof shield. Sealant should be applied periodically for a longer lifespan of your tile. You'll also want to clean the grout lines for a spotless appearance. We recommend asking your contractor about your specific tile material and how it should be cleaned.
