A & L Tile LLC approaches tile work with meticulous surface preparation and layout planning. We check substrate deflection, correct flatness to meet ANSI A108 tolerances, and use crack-isolation or uncoupling membranes where needed—especially under large-format tile or heated floors. We select mortars matched to the material and environment (porcelain, ceramic, stone, mosaics; interior or exterior) and manage grout joints, lippage, and perimeter movement joints in accordance with TCNA EJ171 for long-term durability.
From design consultation to final clean-up, we guide you through patterns (herringbone, running bond, stacked), layout balance, grout color choice, and trim selections. Expect neat cuts, aligned reveals, and clean transitions to adjacent flooring. We offer advanced grout options (epoxy, high-performance cementitious, or urethane) and provide maintenance guidance so your new surfaces look great and perform for years.
