Large-format tile in wall and floor sizes up to several feet, installed on flat substrates with the right trowels, mortar and leveling systems for few grout lines and a clean look.
Big tiles make a bathroom feel larger and cleaner, because there are fewer grout lines. They also show every flaw in the floor or wall beneath them. Homeowners in Nashville choose large tile for showers, floors and feature walls, and they need an installer who prepares the surface carefully.
We check the floor for flatness and correct dips and humps before setting tile. We use large-notch trowels, the right mortar and leveling clips so the edges line up. Tiles are back-buttered where needed, so there are no hollow spots. We plan joints to avoid awkward cuts and use proper support for tile on walls. We also talk about handling, since large tiles are heavy, easy to chip and need careful moving. Large tile arrives in heavy cartons and demands careful handling. We plan the path from the truck to the bathroom, protect floors and doors on the way and test the first few tiles for flatness. Taking time at this stage prevents chipped corners and helps the finished surface look sharp and uniform.
We flatten the floor or wall before setting, because large tile cannot hide a wavy surface.
Large tiles need more mortar and the right notch size, so they are fully supported.
Clips or wedges keep tile edges flush, so there is no lippage to catch a toe.
Layout planning reduces thin cuts and keeps joint lines running in a pleasing way.
