Tile Work Replacement in Fort Lauderdale, FL Homes

What The Work Covers

What Tile Work Replacement Includes

Every job starts from the tile you have and the reason it is coming out. Some floors are cracked or sound hollow underfoot, some grout is stained past cleaning, and some tile is simply dated. We scope the work to the rooms that need it, then plan each stage before the first tile is lifted. A tile work replacement project in Fort Lauderdale can include:

• ✓Shower walls and pans, stripped back and rebuilt on a waterproofed base before new tile goes on
• ✓Floor tile, lifted off the slab and replaced over a surface that is flat, clean and dry
• ✓Kitchen backsplashes and wall tile, cut around outlets, windows and cabinet runs
• ✓Grout, caulk and sealing, with the right joint width and flexible caulk at every change of plane
• ✓Substrate and waterproofing repair, so soft spots and old water damage get fixed instead of tiled over
• ✓Thresholds, trim and transitions, including metal or bullnose edges and the step between rooms

If you are not sure whether to replace one room or everything that matches it, we walk you through the options during the home visit and show you where the change is worth making. For budget factors, see our guide to bathroom remodeling costs in Fort Lauderdale.

Our Process

How Our Tile Replacement Process Works

Built for Local Homes

Tile Work Replacement for Fort Lauderdale Homes

Tile has a hard life in South Florida. Most houses here sit on a concrete slab, and moisture moving up through that slab, along with year round humidity and salt air off the ocean and the Intracoastal, goes after grout joints and bonds long before the tile itself gives up. Beach sand tracked indoors acts like sandpaper on a glazed floor. We check the slab for moisture, cracks and flatness before anything new goes down, and in showers we rebuild the waterproofing rather than tiling over it.

Many homes in Wilton Manors along Wilton Drive, in Victoria Park just east of downtown and on the mid century blocks of Oakland Park and Coral Ridge Isles near Commercial Boulevard were built decades ago, and we often find old mud set tile or original terrazzo under the current floor. That changes the finished floor height and how doors and transitions have to be handled, so we look underneath before we quote. In condo and townhome buildings, the association may set work hours and require sound rated underlayment beneath hard flooring, and we plan around those rules from the start.
