Tile Installation
Precision tile work with 1/16″ grout lines and proper waterproofing — built to last a lifetime.
What We Do
At Polymath Tile & Remodeling, tile installation is our core craft. With 17 years of experience, we deliver installations that are built to last — using proper waterproofing techniques including Schluter systems and membrane applications that protect your investment for decades.
What sets our tile work apart is precision. We achieve 1/16″ grout lines consistently — a level of detail most installers simply cannot match. The result is a clean, professional finish with no tile shifting, corner cracking, or grout failures.
Whether it’s a shower, floor, backsplash, or custom feature wall, every tile we set is installed with the same attention to detail. We handle everything from subfloor preparation to final grout and seal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a typical tile installation take?
It depends on the scope. A standard bathroom floor might take 2-3 days, while a full shower with waterproofing can take 4-7 days. We’ll give you a clear timeline during your quote.
Do you handle waterproofing?
Absolutely. Proper waterproofing is critical to a lasting tile installation. We use Schluter systems and quality membranes on every wet-area installation.
What does 1/16" grout lines mean?
It means the gap between each tile is just 1/16 of an inch — extremely tight and precise. This creates a clean, modern look and requires significant skill to achieve consistently.
Do you provide the tile or do I need to buy it?
You purchase the tile and we install it. We’re happy to advise on material selection and can point you to great local suppliers.
