Showers

Tiled showers are one of our specialties. When it comes to installing tile in your shower one of the most important aspects of the shower is never even seen.

Backsplashes

One of the most popular elements of any home is often the kitchen backsplash. Backsplashes are practical and desirable because they protect the walls from stains and water damage. But the benefits of a tiled backsplash don’t stop there.

Tile Floors

We understand that when it comes to flooring options, you have a lot to choose from. If you are looking for an option that is permanent, clean, and green you should be seriously considering porcelain tile.

Exterior Tile

We are happy to discuss installing exterior tile. The benefits of having tile outdoors are many. You can add a lot of design and personality to your home with mosaic tile, handmade tile, glass or wood-look porcelain tile for example. You can blur the line between the interior of your home and the space outside.

Another BIG floor completed, another satisfied client! Keep an eye out for photos the Saltillo floor and Talavera hand painted tile backspalsh. This family, from Southern California, gave me the opportunity to work with a material you just don't see all too often this far north. Thanks again to the Brandow's and as usual, I'm here to support your project through the years, should anything arise!

Back with another tile tip! When planning your floors layout with handmade tiles, the standard ways of maintaining a uniformed look don't really work like they do with today's rectified porcelain tiles. In this video, I share a technique of how to keep your floor tiles straight and square, when your tiles are anything but straight and square!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to all of our Service Men and Women, who gave the ultimate sacrifice, to ensure the freedoms and the lives we enjoy today. There are no words to express the gratitude I feel. 🙏 🇺🇲 "It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God such men lived." – George S. Patton

Morning friends! Today we're addressing floor flatness for tile! Because this tile is handmade, the specs from TCNA allow for a little more variation than what's common for most of the tile you'll see on the market today. Be sure to look up your specific tile and grout size, to find your recommended specifications! With this project we're using a combination of grinding and self leveling underlayment to achieve the required flatness of our substrate. Tile on!

12

I have the absolute best clients in town. Not sure how I get so lucky! This was in addition to a bonus, but the words mean so much! Thank you Jeff and Jan!

Prevent your floor from cracking or even exploding! If you follow TCNA guideline EJ171, when setting a large floor, you'll even further mitigate your risk of a massive failure. Be sure your tile contractor is following national protocols to protect your home!

Here's a short video illustrating how we tile setters accomplish a perfectly flush wall when installing tiles of different heights. It's these small tricks that really give you that look of a polished final installation. Oh, and don't mind the thinset on my face. 🤣It only helps to confirm that I am the one performing my installations and not an employee. HAPPY TILING!

Another completed shower, with 12x24 porcelain 'marble' field tile, herringbone marble niche and Hexagon marble pan. Please don't mind the shading in the grout as it was still in the drying process. I also installed the floor, 12x24 faux stone but forgot to film it. Enjoy! And the insurance replacement for my phone came in so you can get ahold of me through normal means. I'm so hard on my phones, this is my second replacement inside a year!

To all of my friends and clients, my phone is out of commission while I wait for my insurance replacement in the mail. You can reach me through here on facebook, or my email at [email protected]. Your patience is greatly appreciated!

As these tiles grow in size, the need to meet or exceed industry standards grows with it. You need at least 90% coverage (95% in wet areas) of thinset to tile, to ensure a long lasting and sound installation. These larger tiles usually require you to use a notch trowel on both the substrate and the tile for full coverage. I was just talking with another installer that happened to be walking by this job and he recommended I, "use a lot of dots!" to stick these tiles.. no way! Too many installers are fighting for the cheapest rates and in turn are taking the fast and easy way out, using the "dot" method. This is where they'll use randomly placed globs of thinset to adhere their LFT's to the tile substrate. (Ex. in the comments) They'll be lucky to hit 20% coverage using those methods! That's dangerous! 90% is recommended for all tile but if you're choosing these 24x48 monster slabs of porcelain, be positive your installer knows what he's doing and is using the correct methods to stick these tiles. Imagine if one of these 8 square foot tiles fell off the wall??

Catch me and my work over at Arizona Tile in Roseville, CA this week. I'm helping get their showroom dialed in with the newest 2021 looks. We're going BIG next year with large format porcelain!

Check out that precision machining! BIG shout out to @solameasuringtools for replacing AND upgrading, not one but TWO levels for me! I admittedly bought the baseline model, treated them poorly and even with that, Sola honored their lifetime warranty and shot me a couple brand new #bigred levels. Lifetime customer here! Also a fan of how Keson, who now owns Sola, is a small American, family owned business, like mine...kinda😉! 🇺🇸 Thanks guys!

Garrett Gregory installed our handmade tiles from Morocco up our kitchen wall and backsplash. It is a difficult tile to work with, but he did an amazing job. He showed up to work on time and when he says he will be there, it is a full day of work. We appreciated his willingness to change a few tiles after he had already installed them. And he is a very nice person!

Garrett installed our kitchen backsplash and bathroom floor tile. We sought out several estimates and Garrett was the first to respond. After meeting with him we knew he was the person for the job. Our tile backsplash had a wavy pattern and his attention to detail made all the difference. The tile flows seamlessly and has transformed an otherwise bland area to a beautiful focal point. He was responsive to all our questions and concerns. We will use him for any future tile projects and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone that is looking for quality work at a fair price.

Garrett is a professional, high quality tile contractor and was an absolute pleasure to work with for our guest bathroom remodel. He dedicates time solely to each client one job at a time, provided great design advice and was honest and helpful through our whole renovation process. It was great to find someone in this business who is trustworthy and detail oriented. His work is technically sound and the details were immaculate and clean. Highly recommend for all your tile and renovation needs! We will definitely use him again and just wish we had found him sooner!

We used Garrett Gregory Tile service for a fireplace remodel project we recently worked on. Garrett assisted us in all aspects of the project from tile selection and layout to work scheduling coordination and tile vendor selection. Garrett was a pleasure to work with. His cost estimates were accurate and he was able to improve on his original schedule which we greatly appreciated. Communications and status updates were great and he responded quickly to any questions or inquiries we made. The final results exceeded our expectations. Overall very professional, clean and top quality service. We’ll use him again on our next project and would highly recommend his service to anyone looking for a reliable quality tile service.

Garrett installed an arabesque ceramic tile backsplash for our kitchen. Each piece had to be set individually. Garrett did a super job matching the pattern in the corners. He was very meticulous and tidy and we found Garrett very professional and easy to work with. We highly recommend Garrett!

Garrett was excellent to work with. We had several bids for our job before deciding to go with Garrett. His enthusiasm for the art of tile is one of the things that eventually sold us. Other companies seemed a bit annoyed by our job because it was large (our entire house minus the bedrooms) and unique (handmade Saltillo tile). Garrett immediately saw the vision and was excited about the opportunity to bring our dream to life. Working with Garrett is like working with a trusted auto mechanic. He is honest, hard-working, trustworthy, and cares about his work. I appreciated the way he consulted us whenever decisions had to be made, and I felt well informed throughout the process. The finished product is even better than we imagined and we can't recommend Garrett enough.

We can't say enough good things about Garret Gregory Tile. His work is amazing! But more than that, he was great to work with. He was extremely communicative, kept the workplace clean - even left it cleaner then when he found it, and does great work. I would highly recommend him! Probably the best contractor we have ever worked with.

This was the BEST experience I’ve had w/ a contractor EVER. Garrett is an expert in his trade. He was on time each day & responsive throughout the entire process. He has perfected his craft and is extremely detailed. He put down paper to protect our floors & counters, vacuumed daily the area, and left a clean space each day. If you have tile work, this is the guy! Look no further.

Garrett saved my kitchen! I had a hack job done in my newly remodeled kitchen, it was the worst tile work I have ever seen! Garrett came in told me what needed to be done and broke down the pricing of what he was going to do! Amazing work, by a professional tile man and his pricing is very fair! Definitely recommend using this gentleman on all your tile needs!

We use Garrett for EVERYTHING!!!! Best work, on time and the quality that he does on all work is extremely well done! If you don’t use him for any of your needs your missing out not only on him but his great work and work ethic. One stop shop☺️

Garrett did a kitchen backsplash installation with handmade tile. We had a particular way that we wanted the grout lines to flow downward so that the lines looked like flowing water (or steam rising), and he did an amazing job. He has an artistic eye and had great suggestions for how to make the backsplash look its best! Even the room corners where the tiles come together look amazing! We highly recommend Garrett for his attention to detail, punctuality and hard work.
