Tile Installation Services for Leesburg & Albany Homes

Whether it's one kitchen backsplash or a full bathroom tile remodel, every tile job gets the same thing: a flat, solid, properly prepped surface first. That's what keeps grout from cracking and tile from popping loose.

Kitchens

Kitchen Backsplash Tile Installation

Subway, mosaic, glass, porcelain and natural stone backsplash tile installed behind counters and ranges. Clean cuts around outlets and windows, sealed grout that wipes clean.

Bathrooms

Shower Tile Installation

Walk-in showers, shower walls, niches and benches built on cement board and a waterproof membrane. Tile shower pans sloped so water goes down the drain and nowhere else.

Bathrooms

Bathroom Tile & Tub Surrounds

Tub surrounds, floor-to-ceiling bathroom wall tile, wainscot and accent walls. Old tile torn out, wall repaired and new bathroom tile installed by one crew.

Floors

Tile Floor Installation

Porcelain, ceramic, wood-look and large-format floor tile for kitchens, baths, laundry rooms and entryways. Subfloor checked and leveled so you don't get lippage or hollow spots. Want LVP or laminate instead? See our flooring installation page.

Specialty

Natural Stone, Mosaic & Pattern Tile

Marble, travertine and slate, plus herringbone, chevron and mosaic layouts. Patterns are dry-fit before install so lines land exactly where you want them.

Repairs

Tile Repair, Regrout & Replacement

Cracked tile replaced, failing grout ground out and regrouted, moldy caulk removed and resealed. We fix the cause of the problem, like a loose subfloor or leaking shower, not just the surface.

Tile We Install

Every Type of Tile, Installed the Right Way

Your tile choice changes the setting materials, the cuts and the prep. We install the tile you pick from any local store or supplier, or we can help you choose one that fits your space and budget.

Why prep matters more than the tile

Most tile failures in South Georgia homes come from what's under the tile: moisture, a bouncy subfloor or drywall in a shower. Here's what we do before the tile goes down.

  • 01
    Inspect and repairCheck walls and subfloors for rot, movement and moisture before anything is covered up.
  • 02
    Proper backer and waterproofingCement board and a waterproof membrane in showers and wet areas. Never bare drywall.
  • 03
    Flat and levelWalls and floors flattened so large tile sits even with no lippage.
  • 04
    Right mortar and groutSetting materials matched to the tile type, with sealed or stain-resistant grout.

FAQ

Tile Installation FAQs: Leesburg & Albany, GA

How much does tile installation cost in Leesburg and Albany, GA?
It depends on the project, the tile you pick and the condition of the wall or floor underneath. A kitchen backsplash is a much smaller job than a walk-in shower or a full tile floor. Use the cost estimator above for a rough range, then we'll give you a written, itemized estimate after a free in-home measure.
How long does a tile installation take?
Most kitchen backsplashes take 1–2 days including grout. Tub surrounds usually take 2–3 days. Walk-in showers and full bathroom tile take longer because of demo, waterproofing and cure times. You'll get a timeline in your written estimate.
Do you waterproof showers before installing tile?
Yes. Every tile shower gets cement board and a waterproof membrane before tile goes up, and shower pans are sloped to the drain. Tile and grout on their own are not waterproof, so this step is what prevents leaks and rot behind the wall.
Can you install tile over my old tile or backsplash?
Sometimes, but we usually recommend removing it. Tearing out old tile lets us check for water damage and gives the new tile a flat, solid surface. We'll tell you honestly which option makes sense after we see it.
Do I buy the tile, or do you supply it?
Either works. You can pick out tile from any store or supplier and we'll install it, or we can help you choose tile and include materials in your estimate.
Do you install tile floors, or just walls and backsplashes?
Both. We install porcelain and ceramic floor tile in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and entryways, along with backsplashes, shower walls and tub surrounds.
Can you repair cracked tile or regrout my shower?
Yes. We replace cracked or loose tile, regrout and reseal showers and backsplashes, and replace failing caulk. If the cracking comes from a bigger issue like a flexing subfloor or a leak, we'll find and fix that too.
What areas do you serve for tile installation?
