Common mistakes made by tile contractors

There are many mistakes made by contractors that impact the quality and the durability of your tile project. Some common mistakes are:

• Improper subfloor preparation which can create serious problems with cracking and durability of your floor.

• Choosing the wrong tile for your space. Tile can be too large or small and can make your space look visually smaller. Certain types of tile are too slippery for floors and can cause slipping or falling.

It is very important to have your contractor involved with the selection process of your tile. By involving the contractor, you will avoid transition problems, get feedback on tile size and pattern issues and avoid trip charges that contractors will charge if they have to go back and forth to the tile shop.

• Tile setters that do not lay out the pattern before setting the tile, risk making serious mistakes during tile installation.

• Tile setters that use inexpensive tub cutters and cheap tools tend to end up with a final product that shows the rough cuts and inferior results.
