Post-Install Care Guide and Walkthrough

A post-install care guide and walkthrough that shows you the finished tile, explains cure times and cleaning and sets a first checkup.

The end of an installation is the start of living with the tile. A walkthrough lets you inspect the work, ask questions and learn how to care for it. Homeowners in Nashville tell us this is when they feel confident, because they know what to expect in the first days and what to do when something comes up.

We walk every surface with you: floors, walls, corners, grout lines and trim. We point out cure times, such as how long before heavy use, when to seal and when it is safe to use the shower. We hand over a care guide for your specific tile and grout, covering cleaners to use and avoid, how to handle spills and when to call us. We label spare tile and note grout colors and product names for future repairs, and we schedule a checkup so we can look at everything after the first season of use. Plan to be home for the walkthrough and bring a flashlight to inspect corners and grout. Ask about anything you notice. Take dated photos of the finished work for your records, and keep our contact details handy for the first-season checkup.

How it works

Our process, start to finish.

  1. 01

    Call and describe the job

    You tell us the rooms, the tile you like and your timing, and we ask about the floors, walls and any water issues.

  2. 02

    Measure and plan

    We check flatness, moisture and layout from photos or a visit and talk through materials, pattern and trim.

  3. 03

    Review the estimate

    You get a plain written scope with prep, waterproofing, materials, schedule and cure times before anything is ordered.

  4. 04

    We prepare the surfaces

    Old tile comes out, floors are repaired and leveled, backer board and membranes go in and showers are waterproofed and tested.

  5. 05

    We set the tile

    Tile is set with the right mortar, checked for flatness and alignment and cut carefully at the edges.

  6. 06

    Grout, seal and walk through

    We grout, seal and caulk, clean up and walk the finished job with you, leaving written care tips and extra tile.
