Daniel did some tile work for me and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Absolutely amazing work and craftsmanship. He showed up on time, was very professional throughout the whole job, and did a fantastic job. You can tell he takes pride in his work and pays attention to the little details. Good, reliable contractors aren’t always easy to find, and Daniel is definitely one of them. The quality of the work was excellent, everything was done right, and he was worth every penny. I will definitely use him again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for quality tile work. Highly recommend! Daniel, thank you so much for getting the job done on short notice.

Local Knowledge
Tiling Homes in Bristol: What We See on Site
Federal Hill colonials, Forestville mill houses and mid-century ranches define the housing stock around Federal Hill, and each era of building asks for a different tile approach. Older homes in Bristol often carry uneven plaster walls and framing that moves with the seasons. We correct both with proper backer board and uncoupling before tile ever goes down.
Federal Hill's century-old framing and Forestville's mill-era houses pre-date modern joist tables. Stone floors get the L/720 deflection check, and pre-1950 bathrooms get mold-resistant backer and bonded waterproofing. No exceptions.
Nearby Towns We Cover
In Bristol we work with every tile material worth setting: subway, herringbone, chevron, zellige, mosaic, glass, penny, hexagon, porcelain, quarry, granite, marble, travertine and natural stone, on offset, stacked, brick-set, herringbone and chevron layouts, over a substrate we measure and level first.

Bristol Tile Questions
No. Daniel and his own crew do the tile work. We do not hand your job to a third-party installer, so the same people who set the tile are the ones in your house every day of the install, and you deal with one company from the estimate through the final clean-up.
Yes. Estimates in Bristol (06010, 06011) are free, itemized and typically scheduled within 24 hours of your call or form request. Because Bristol is a core part of our weekly route, we can usually meet you the same week.
All of them, including Federal Hill, Forestville, Lake District and the surrounding streets. We also cover nearby Plainville, Farmington, Southington on the same routes, so scheduling stays fast.
Given Federal Hill colonials, Forestville mill houses and mid-century ranches, our most requested work in Bristol is walk-in shower conversions with bonded waterproofing, kitchen backsplashes, and first-floor porcelain that stands up to New England winters.
Every older Bristol house was framed differently, so we open the wall or the floor before we quote it. What we find goes on the estimate as a line you can see, and the substrate work is priced before any tile is ordered.
