Frequently Asked Questions: Tile Flooring
Here are answers to some of your most commonly asked questions about tile floors. If you don’t find your answer here, please contact us to find out more!
Is it possible to put warming coils beneath tile floors for warmth?
Yes, we are able to install warming coils underneath most ceramic or porcelain tiles in your home. Contact us and ask us for details about the benefits of this in your home.
Will ceramic or porcelain tiles crack easily?
No, tiles that are installed properly do not crack with usual wear and tear. If tile is cracked it must have been exposed to extreme sharp impact or a shift in foundation. We ensure your subfloor is properly prepared before we tile your home. And we suggest keeping additional tiles in case you need to replace one at a future time.
Universal Carpet came to the rescue when our bathroom shower was leaking. They installed a new tile shower and matching tile floor and it looks really beautiful! The best part is the cost was extremely reasonable. Their installers were very neat and professional and did an excellent job. I highly recommend using Universal Carpet to give a new, updated look to your bathroom.
