As the owner/operator of Infinity flooring I use my artistic talents to create beautiful tile, stone and wood flooring projects. Along with the flooring, I also specialize in decorative custom tile showers, kitchen backsplashes and fireplaces. I enjoy working on creative and out of the ordinary projects and this is why I have find myself working with a lot of interior designers and homeowners that think outside of your typical 12x12 beige straight lay tile install. Projects are personaly measured and bid by me at no charge to you. An accurate written proposal is always given to the homeowner prior to work begining to avoid any question as to price or scope of work. I am not a contactor who subcontracts the work out to other indiviual. I, along with my empoyees do the actual work giving me more control over the final out come of the project. I am excited to be a part of a site that can spread the good word about the work that my company does over more broad of an area.

Marble and Granite questions, answered by experts
The tile spacing you should use will depend on the tile and where you’re installing it. Choosing the right tile spacers to maintain a consistent gap between your tiles is tricky. Generally, tile spacing shouldn’t be less than 2 millimeters on walls and 3 millimeters on floors because of stress relief requirements. Getting it wrong can result in uneven tiles and early repairs.
Slate is pricier than many other flooring materials, but it’s not the most expensive option on the market. For example, at $10 to $16 per square foot, slate flooring costs more than vinyl ($2 to $14 per square foot) and porcelain ($3 to $10 per square foot). However, it’s not quite as expensive as high-end marble flooring, which can cost up to $60 per square foot.
Tiling can be DIY with the right tools and skills, but challenges like ensuring evenness and appropriate adhesion often warrant professional handling.
It’s not a good idea to lay tile and grout on the same day. The adhesive or thin-set that sticks the tiles to the surface needs plenty of time to dry before you can grout. Wait for 24 to 48 hours, depending on moisture levels in the space. The tiles can become misaligned and more prone to damage if you don’t wait.
A cement backer board is not needed for laying tile on concrete. Sometimes referred to as a cementitious backer unit, or CBU, backer board should be used if the subfloor is plywood or OSB. The backer board provides a base on which to install the tiles that isn’t as likely to be damaged by any accidental water seepage as natural materials would be.
