"My wife, I and daughter removed everything from the basement into the adjoining garage with the exception of empty heavy furniture and cabinets. The installer moved these items around himself. The job required laying down a leveling compound to smooth the surface in one room that took about one half a day. Overall the job took a total of two days to install about 500 square feet of flooring. The installer cleaned up and replaced the heavy items in the original locations. He did a great job and was very friendly."

With over 10 years of professional installation experience I expertly install new tile and make repairs in a clean timely manner for an affordable price! We also offer demolition!

"These guys were fantastic. We had replaced our kitchen tile without using Angi’s two years ago. They did a terrible job, not lining the tiles properly, not grouting properly, and they didn’t remove the issues at the base of the tiles, so overtime our tiles were cracking. The contractor had promised us he’d come back to finish the grouting when he left in Friday, but asked for payment. New homeowner mistake, I paid him. He never responded to my messages after that. ALV came in the same day I posted on Angi’s, gave a reasonable quote, and then bought the tiles we were looking at the next day. 3 days later, the project is complete, the grout finished, everything looks fantastic. 10/10 would use these guys again."

Expert tile, stone, marble, glass installations onto back-splashes, tub-surrounds, fire-places, all walls and floors, and floor-tile grout restoration. We also do shower-grouts, water-proofing and repairs. No sub-contractors will be coming into your house; all work performed by me. 32 years exp

"Estimate: Ryan came out to evaluate the bathroom and was on-time and polite. He showed us that he valued our time and quickly found the trouble spots and confirmed our fears about the water damage. He gave us very reasonable pricing for what we wanted and also suggested several different paths for us to take to not just make the bathroom functional, but to improve its aesthetics for a marginally higher investment. Pre Renovation: Ryan had outlined in his estimate, the cost for the work to be performed. We were able to pick the materials ourselves. He met several times with my wife to go over design options, patterns, colors and educated both of us on the finer points of bathroom design. This included coordinating tile, flooring, vanity, new fixtures with associated plumbing valves as well as of the incidentals. Prior to initiating our job, he staged the area nicely and cleanly and fit his schedule to meet ours. He also had to coordinate with other contractors, on our behalf, and did so professionally. On a site note, I know that dealing with people and helping them decide on big purchases can be frustrating but Ryan showed nothing but patience and understanding in guiding us through the process. From start to finish he was just an exceptionally nice guy which seems rare these days, especially in Covid times. Demolition: Ryan was on time and showed up with another worker. They began by removing the existing tile, it was done quietly and they constantly cleaned as they went. However, when the tile came down in the spot(s) that we were concerned about, we found extensive water damage. When the house had settled it left a gap several feet long between a chimney and the house exterior and water had been getting in for years. The wood had turned to peat and crumbled away by barely touching it. The insulation was ruined. There was nothing left of the wall, nor the studs. Just gone. The floors had similar issues but not to that extent. Without missing a beat, Ryan cleared the debris away, assessed the damage and began repairs. The wall and floor were repaired, new studs installed, new subfloor, new insulation and it looked amazing. When I saw this, I breathed a deep sigh of relief. If this had gone on much longer, who knows what would have happened. Ryan also went through the type of repair would be required to the exterior of the house and made suggestions to help get it solved quickly. The vanity was removed and the bathroom was a blank canvas. Remodel: Ryan and his associate began by doing the tile. I've had friends that had tiling work done and it was scary to look at. That was not the case here. Ryan worked methodically adhering, spacing and leveling each tile. He didn't just slap it up. We decided to go for a white and gray marble tile and he looked at every piece and placed them in an aesthetically pleasing pattern where each time would compliment the pattern of the tiles adjoining it. Where, under the window, tile had previously just been shoved in to fill a gap, Ryan designed a little window sill and just made it fantastic. He has such a great attention to detail and he doesn't rush. He takes the time needed to do it right and it shows. The floor came next and we went with a slate gray porcelain tile. One thing that I noted is the pattern of the tile wasn't necessarily straight on all of the pieces. Ryan noticed it too and was able to lay them so not only they would be straight and true but that the pattern in the tile would be symmetrical as well. The next thing that was obvious was the tub and toilet. Ryan let us know about glazing options that we are going to do at a later date but gave us some recommendations of whom to go to. But in relation to the tub/toilet/vanity came the new plumbing fixtures. He helped us there as well. The fixtures in place were dilapidated and heavily oxidized, which makes sense being 50 years old at this point. So we chose replacements. Ryan found a great plumber to do it for us. The copper lines were replaced with new pex. The valves were all installed and the plumber quickly and expertly installed full Moen hardware. It was surprisingly painless. Ryan also helped us find a great deal on a vanity with real Carrara marble. He picked it up and installed it with the plumber and again, it went in quickly and easily, which I suspect is because he did his research up front on which one was best. Result: My wife and I did not have the money nor the plan to do a complete bathroom renovation. We wanted to do the tiles, fix water damage, and potentially update the plumbing hardware. We had a major problem and wanted to throw a band aid on it. With Ryan's skilled craftsmanship and a marginal increase in cost of materials it feels like we have gotten a complete bathroom makeover. We have to do the ceiling, the wallpaper and the mirror later, as well as glaze the tub and toilet, but what was done looks simply amazing. The walls are strong again, the tiles and marble are breath taking, the grout work is clean, and even the porcelain floors feel soft on my feet. I feel like I got a 75k bathroom straight off of HGTV when I didn't even expect it. Overall: This is the best experience I had with a contractor in all of my years. He quickly saw what we needed. Gave us options. Was super nice and friendly and educational in helping us narrow our design decisions. Gave us a great price which was super competitive. Planned the job well. Coordinated with other contractors well. Was polite and cleaned after every single day and left no mess behind. Finished everything he promised and more. Looks fantastic. Now if you've read everything I've wrote until this point, let me finish with this. Ryan has exceptional skill, integrity with his work and he is a super trustworthy guy. I know I have more projects around here to do, and Ryan is the one I will be calling for them."

FAQs for ceramic tile service projects in Harvard, MA

The average cost of installing tile is around $2,000, ranging between $400 and $6,500, depending on the type of tile, square footage of tile, and whether or not your tiling contractor performs site preparation, like removing old tile. On average, you can expect to pay between $5 and $45 per square foot, largely depending on the type and quality of the tiles you choose. For example, ceramic and travertine tile cost about $1 per square foot, but luxury tile options like marble cost up to $350 per square foot, not including labor.

Yes, tiling a bathroom is a great way to boost the value of your home. Tile is a highly durable and attractive building material, and savvy buyers will know they’re getting a low-maintenance flooring or wall covering that can last for 75 years or more. Keep in mind that the return on investment from tiling your bathroom will likely be higher if a professional tile installer does the work. Tiling is a complicated job, and mistakes will be very evident and detract from the appearance and value of the finished work.

On average, you can expect the tiling in your bathroom to take around 12 hours, usually spread over at least two to three days. The process can take longer if your tile installer needs to remove old tile first. Tiling a floor takes around six hours, and tiling the shower area often takes six to 10 hours. Some factors that affect the length of the project include the type of tile, the layout of your bathroom, and any prep work that your installer needs to do beforehand. It’s best to have an alternate bathroom available during the process.

Tile will almost always last longer than laminate flooring, regardless of the type of tile installed. Porcelain tile can last for 75 years or more with proper care, and even less durable ceramic tile will last for 60 years or more, provided they’re installed by a tile professional. On the other hand, laminate flooring has an average lifespan of around 20 years, and you might only get 10 to 15 years out of low-cost laminate flooring. As such, tile will add far more value to your home than laminate.

To find a local tile installer, your first step is to connect with professionals in your area and interview them. Ask the following questions to get a sense of their experience and ability:

  • How many years have you been in business?

  • Do you have a list of references I can contact?

  • What materials—tile, thinset, and mortar—will you use?

  • Does your pricing include materials and labor?

  • How long will my bathroom or kitchen be out of commission while you work?

Then, compare prices to find the best value for your investment.
