Tile Installation Services
Our tile installers in Victoria, BC have years of experience in laying tile that is perfectly straight and solid. While laying tile can sound like an easy task, anyone who walks into your home or business will notice even one spacing issue or incorrect cut. Considering how long your floor will last, it is more than worth the extra expense to ensure it is installed right!
A great tile installation starts with a clean and level subfloor. We will remove the existing flooring if necessary, then ensure that your subfloor is sufficient to support your chosen tile. We will then measure your space and plan the installation so that the tiles are centered and straight. Just one small error in preparation can make the entire room look crooked!
Once we are confident in our plan, it is time to begin securing the tiles with mortar. We use appropriate spacers before setting every tile to ensure precise and consistent spacing. When we reach a wall, our equipment ensures that every cut is perfect so there are no gaps. We also level the tile as we go so that we can correct any issues before the mortar begins to set.
Once all tiles are set and level, it is time for grout. Depending on the mortar required, we may have to wait up to 24 hours before grouting your new floor (we will always let you know the time requirements of your project before we begin so you are never surprised!). Grout is spread across the entire floor with a grout float to ensure even application. Don’t worry - we will clean the excess grout off your tile before it has time to cure!
The final step is to seal the grout. Not only does this help prevent stains and keep mold from taking up residence in your grout, it also keeps your grout looking like new for longer. Once the sealer is dry (sometimes in as little as a couple of hours), your new tile floor is ready for you to enjoy!
Tile and Grout Cleaning Services
While professionally installed tile can last for over 50 years, it will slowly accumulate dirt and grime, which will cause it to lose its shine and eventually even its color. In Victoria, moisture is also a constant threat to your tile - one of our tile maintenance tips for our wet climate is regular cleaning! Fortunately, a professional cleaning can restore your tile floor to its original appearance, remove any mold or mildew that may have started to grow, and help protect your tiles for the future.
At Tiling Victoria, we offer both residential cleaning and commercial cleaning services in Victoria, BC. Our powerful extraction equipment can loosen and remove even the toughest stains. If cleaning alone does not achieve the look you want, our grout recoloring restores even the dirtiest and most neglected floors.
To avoid your tile getting to this point, we recommend scheduling a residential cleaning at least once a year. In low traffic areas, you might only need your tile cleaned every couple of years. The timing is entirely up to you, of course, but the longer you wait, the more time dirt has to embed itself deep in your floor. If you ever notice mold or mildew in your grout, call us immediately to schedule a grout cleaning service!
For commercial tile, we recommend having professionals clean your grout and tile every six months. Due to the high traffic that most commercial floors receive, they must be cleaned more often to keep them looking their best. While this might sound expensive to a business on a tight budget, we believe the benefits of a clean, sanitary floor far outweigh the costs. We are always happy to provide you with a tile and grout cleaning cost breakdown so that you only pay for exactly what you need.
Regardless of how you use your tile floor, it will last longer, look better, and be better for your health if it is regularly cleaned. Whether you need a basic residential cleaning or a commercial grout deep cleaning, call us today. Our experts are here to help you make your floors look just like new again!
Why choose tile?
Tile is the standard flooring choice in a wide variety of applications, and for good reason. We touched on a few of these reasons already, but if you are still undecided on your next flooring type, here are a few great reasons to choose tile:
- Easy to Maintain: Tile is very simple to clean. All you need is a broom and a mop! Unlike some flooring types, it does not need to be resealed or refinished often, and it can be cleaned with the most basic cleaning supplies - water and soap. As we mentioned above, it is also water resistant, so spills and splashes are no problem at all.
- Long Lasting: The average lifespan of a tile floor is over fifty years. Unless you decide to remodel for cosmetic reasons, you will likely never have to replace your floor again in your lifetime. Tile is also highly unlikely to break or chip under normal use - while whatever you drop on it may break, your floor will likely be just fine.
- Environmentally Friendly: Most tiles are made from natural ingredients like clay, sand, and minerals. They also do not emit any VOCs (volatile organic compounds), meaning less pollutants are created during the manufacturing process and there are no residual chemicals or compounds left in the tiles that might be hazardous to your health.
