Day of Tile Floor Installation

Be Present

Ensure you are home on the day of your installation to address any questions or concerns the installers may have.

Safety

Keep children and pets out of the work area during installation as various tools and techniques may pose hazards.

Moldings & Baseboards

Consider removing moldings and baseboards if necessary for the installation process, and schedule a walk-through with the chief installer before completion to clarify any final details.

After Tile Flooring Installation

After installation, ensure proper ventilation for 48-72 hours to dissipate any odors. Keep in mind that painted baseboards, woodwork, and paint may require touch-ups post-installation, which will be your responsibility if needed. Additionally, consider the possibility of doors not clearing the new floor after installation. You may need to enlist the help of a qualified carpenter to rehang or adjust your doors accordingly.
