Tile Installation

Tile Installation

Floor tile and backsplashes for Florida homes, set on surfaces that are ready for them.

Off-white subway tile on a kitchen backsplash.

Prahem sets cosmetic tile for homes, condos, and apartments in Florida. A kitchen can take a simple backsplash, and a laundry or entry can take floor tile when the surface underneath is sound. Request an estimate with the area and the city or ZIP code.

The work is cosmetic setting, not a rebuild of a wet area. An estimate follows the measurements and the tile you want used.

Scope

Tile work that matches this service

In practice

What to include in a tile request

Photos of the wall or floor, the tile size, and whether the tile is already purchased make the scope clearer. Backsplash tile installation depends on outlets, window sills, and the line of the counter. Floor tile depends on the height of nearby floors and whether doors need to clear the new surface.

Shower pans, waterproof shower builds, and structural floor leveling are not cosmetic tile setting. If the substrate moves, holds moisture, or is not flat enough, the honest answer may be that this service is not the right fit.

Suitable surfaces only

Tile is installed on a base that can hold it. This service does not pour structural slabs or rebuild framing behind a wall. Plumbing fixtures stay in place unless another trade has already prepared the opening.

How a request is handled

From the first note to a walkthrough.

01

Initial inquiry

Describe the backsplash, floor, or wall and the tile you have in mind.

02

Project details

Measurements and photos show outlets, edges, and the condition of the surface.

03

Scope and estimate

The scope lists the area, the tile, and the edge details. It becomes an estimate only for that area.

04

Scheduled work

The surface is checked, tile is set, and grout follows when the set has cured.

05

Final walkthrough

You review lines, edges, and grout against the area in the scope.

Questions

About this service.

Can you tile a kitchen backsplash without replacing the cabinets?

Yes, when the wall between the counter and the cabinets is sound and the cabinets are staying.

Do you build new showers?

No. Shower waterproofing systems and pan construction are outside this cosmetic tile work.

Is a price listed online?

No. Tile installation pricing depends on the area, the tile, and the surface, so it is quoted from the scope.

Can floor tile and a backsplash be one request?

Yes. List both areas so the scope can separate them.
