Tacoma Tile Installer | The Value of a Professional Tile Installation Job

The great thing about tile installation is that it is something that you could conceivably do by yourself. I mean, just go down to Home Depot, buy some tile, some hardy board, some thinset, and some grout, and your 95% of the way there, right? But there are some things that can only be learned with experience and practice when installing tile, and it can't be learned in that 30 minute tile installation class that Home Depot offers before they send you off to start your project.

It's those other things, those things that can only be learned by experience and practice, that make hiring a Tacoma tile contractor such a great value. And that, along with a couple of other things I'm going to talk about here, should show you why you should consider hiring a tile installation professional the next time you decide to do some tile work in your home or business.

1. A Tile Contractor Will do it for You

This is one of the primary reasons you should consider hiring help the next time you take on a tile job - if you hire professional help, you won't have to do it yourself.

To give you some idea of how that works in my life, even though I'm a Tacoma tile contractor, or maybe because I am, I like to hire out a lot of the other work I need done. I have a bookkeeper keep track of the books. I have someone that helps me with the marketing of this business. When my oil needs changed, I take it to an oil change shop. When I need a new roof on my house I hire a roofer. Sure, I could do most of those things myself if I wanted to, but it would take up a lot of my time and energy that I'd like to devote to other things, things like my family, my hobbies, and my business.

What would you like to spend that extra time doing?

2. If There's a Mistake, Your Tile Contractor Fixes it, Not You

You may not believe this (particularly if you haven't started your tile job yet), but there is a lot that can go wrong when you are installing tile. You can get started wrong, you can mix the thinset wrong, you can mix the grout wrong, you can apply both wrong, you can lay the tile improperly, you can space it improperly, the list goes on and on. By hiring a Tacoma tile contractor, you avoid those problems - at least if you hire us you can rest easy knowing we won't make those mistakes.

And if, for some reason, a mistake is made, you can call us and we'll fix it immediately. What are you going to do if there is a mistake? Are you going to know how to fix it? What if it's a minor fix and you end up ripping up the floor for no reason? A professional knows how to fix the problems that can crop up with a tile installation job, and they can take care of them - and you can relax.

The next time you think about installing a tile floor or installing a back splash in your kitchen, or even re-tiling your bathroom, think of us. Give us a call, we'll give you an estimate, and we'll show you exactly why you should hire us to help you complete your job.

Shower Tile Installation Jobs

The opportunity to get creative really presents itself in the shower tile installation jobs. As a Tacoma tile installer, this is one of my favorite things to do - the space is big enough to be creative in design, and it's done in a location that lends itself to creativity. In the pictures below, pay special attention to the spa like feel these bathrooms have after this treatment. We'd love to transform your house in the same way.

Choosing a Tile Installer | Our Process

Hiring a Tacoma tile contractor can be a pretty scary thing to do. You are thinking about letting someone into your house to do work that is going to reflect on you and your family. You want it done right, and you want it done at a fair price. We can do that, and to earn your trust and demonstrate our expertise, we've designed a system to make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. Here are just a few of the things we do to make every customer experience with On Point Tile LLC a great one.

Hiring a Tile Installer | Step 1 - the Initial Call

When you call us, you'll see from the very beginning that we aren't like other tile contractors. We answer our own phones. You won't encounter a switchboard or someone that will deflect your call, putting you on hold until you get so frustrated you hang up. And if we miss you and you leave us a message, we promise and guarantee that we'll get back to you the first moment we have a break in the action.

When you do call the first thing we'll do is set up a time to come out, discuss your project with you, and give you an estimate of what it costs us to do the work. Here's another one of our differences - our bids are firm. We won't try to back door you with fees and overages at the end. Because we do good work, and because we stand behind our reputation as Tacoma tile installers, you may find we cost a bit more than others. But we will guarantee the service that you get in return will be will worth every penny you pay.

Hiring a Tile Installer | Step 2 - the Hire

Once you decide to hire us, and we're confident you will, the next thing we'll do is set up a time for us to begin the work. We know contractors of every kind have a reputation for being less than punctual. Another one of our guarantees is that we'll be there on time every time. We know your time is important, and time waiting for us is time you've lost doing the things you need to do.

Because we know how valuable your time is we promise to be on time, every time. If we're not, we'll give you $10 cash, right on the spot. No, it's not a lot of money, but it shows our commitment to you.

When we get to your house we'll set up to make sure once we're finished you'll never know we've been there (except of course, for your new tile installation!). We take great care in leaving every home we enter better looking than we left it. And we'll take that same great care with your house. Installing tile is a dirty job. You shouldn't have to clean up after us - that's part of the reason you hire a Tacoma tile installer - to do all those things you don't want to do. And that's exactly what we aim to do.

And one final thing, before I leave you for the night. We love to have the homeowners around when we work. We love to answer questions. We love the fact that you know you are getting quality work. So, if you want to stick around and watch, maybe learn a thing or two about tile installation, then go right on ahead and do it. We'd love to have you!

We are committed to excellence in every single job that we do. At the end of the day, we want to be known as the best tile contractors in town. Give us a call today so we can show you what we can do.
