Why Homeowners Choose Us
Why homeowners in Clearwater choose us.
We run in house crews, not subcontracted labor. Every shower we build uses Schluter certified waterproofing methods, so it passes inspection and never leaks. You get clean, precise work from tile setters who do this every day.
We know Pinellas. Coastal salt air and humidity are hard on materials, and older Clearwater and St. Petersburg homes often sit on slabs that need leveling before tile goes down. We also understand the condo and HOA rules that come with the beaches and neighborhoods like Safety Harbor, and we plan the work to meet them.
We have been state certified since 2007. You work with a dedicated project lead, not a salesperson, and we send progress photos so you always know where things stand, even when you cannot be on site.

Questions
Frequently asked questions.
- How much does tile installation cost in Clearwater?
- Floor tile installation typically runs 8 to 15 per square foot depending on the tile size, layout, and slab prep. Custom showers usually fall between 2500 and 6000 or more based on size and waterproofing, and a kitchen backsplash generally lands between 900 and 2500. We give you a firm, itemized quote after a free in home measure.
- How long does a tile project take?
- A backsplash is often one to two days. A standard floor takes two to four days including prep and grout cure time. A full custom shower usually runs about one to two weeks once demolition, waterproofing, tile, and finishing are done in the right sequence. We give you a schedule up front and keep you updated.
- How do you waterproof a shower so it does not leak?
- We build showers with the Schluter Kerdi system, a bonded waterproof membrane over the walls, pan, and curb. This is a certified method that seals the shower before any tile goes on, so water stays where it belongs. It passes inspection and protects your home for the long term.
- Do I need permits or condo approval in Pinellas?
- Most tile only work does not require a permit, but shower rebuilds and larger remodels often do, and Pinellas County handles that review. If you live in a condo or an HOA community, the board may have its own rules on timelines, materials, and dumpsters. We help you navigate Pinellas County requirements and condo board approvals so the job stays on track.
- Do you offer financing?
- Yes. We offer financing so you can move forward on your project and pay over time instead of all at once. Learn more.
