Tile in King City, OR

Luxury vinyl plank through the main areas with flush transitions, and a dense low-pile carpet where carpet is wanted. The priorities shift: slip resistance, no height changes between rooms, and a surface that rolls easily under a walker or wheelchair. Deep plush carpet feels luxurious in a showroom and is harder work to cross every day.

It needs checking first. Resilient sheet flooring and some adhesives from before about 1980 can contain asbestos, which is completely manageable but not something to disturb casually. We identify it, and where it is present it gets tested and handled by the proper route. We will never rip it up and hope.

Yes. We take on smaller projects such as bedrooms or a small countertop, though there is a minimum on any job. If you are unsure whether what you have in mind is worth a visit, call and ask — we would rather tell you straight than have you wonder.

Generally not, and it is better to say so up front. We do not take on repair work for hard surface flooring, tile or countertops on projects we did not install. With a shower the reason is specific: the waterproofing is buried behind the tile, we cannot inspect it, and patching the visible part of a system that may already have failed does you no favours. If we built it, that is a different conversation.

No, and this is the most common misunderstanding about showers. Grout is a filler between tiles and it lets water through. Sealing it helps with staining and slows things down, but the thing actually keeping water out of your wall is the membrane and pan behind the tile. That is why we spend the time there rather than on the part you can see.

Longer than people expect, because the sequence has waiting in it — the waterproofing has to cure before tile goes on, and the setting mortar has to cure before grouting. Rushing any of those stages is how failures start. We will give you a realistic schedule at the estimate, including the days when nothing appears to be happening.
