Tile Installation & Remodeling in Southington, Connecticut

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.

Tiling Homes in Southington: What We See on Site
1980s and 90s colonials and raised ranches along Route 10, older homes on Queen Street, plus the village houses in Plantsville and Milldale define the housing stock around Plantsville, and each era of building asks for a different tile approach. Older homes in Southington 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.
Southington is a town of two halves and they need different work. The Route 10 corridor is 1980s and 90s subdivision, where the layout is still the builder's. Queen Street is the town's traditional shopping street and one of the three roads laid out in the 1722 survey, so the houses along it are older. Plantsville and Milldale are village cores with smaller lots and smaller rooms, and those houses have been altered more than once. We measure before we promise a layout in either.
Nearby Towns We Cover
In Southington 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.

What the housing stock means for the job
Southington has 17,985 housing units and a median build year of 1974. 44% went up between 1950 and 1979 and 41% since 1980, so the town is almost entirely post-war and late-twentieth-century stock. 74% of the units are single-family detached and 81% of occupied homes are owner-occupied.
Two things follow. Along Route 10 the block-group median build year is 1984, so the layout is the builder's and usually wants changing. On Queen Street, where the block-group median build year is 1962 and the town plan calls it its traditional shopping street, and in the village cores of Plantsville and Milldale, the houses are older and have been altered before, so what sits under the tile is the open question. Permits run through the town's City Squared online portal: Building Department, Municipal Center, 196 North Main Street, (860) 276-6242. A zoning determination form has to clear Zoning before a building permit is issued.

Southington 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 Southington (06489, 06479, 06467, 06444) are free, itemized and typically scheduled within 24 hours of your call or form request. Because Southington is a core part of our weekly route, we can usually meet you the same week.
All of them, including Plantsville, Milldale, Marion and the surrounding streets. We also cover nearby Bristol, Plainville, Berlin on the same routes, so scheduling stays fast.
Given 1980s and 90s colonials and raised ranches along Route 10, older homes on Queen Street, plus the village houses in Plantsville and Milldale, our most requested work in Southington is walk-in shower conversions with bonded waterproofing, kitchen backsplashes, and first-floor porcelain that stands up to New England winters.
Every older Southington 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.
