Cost of Ceramic tile installation?
Dec 30, 2007 by jesse s | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling
How much per sq foot should ceramic tile installation cost? I would like to get my kitchen and connected bathroom (260 sqft) done. I plan on spending 2 per sq ft on the actual tile.
Contact a ceramic tile installer or go to a showroom which sells ceramic, They will tell you the cost of material and the cost of installation. You can determine if you DIY.

That is realistic if you lay the underlayment and provide all materials (grout, mortar,tile) and don't have any funky patterns or small masaics that take a lot of time to install.

if you are spending 2 per foot on the tile then the labor will be about 1.50 to 2 a ft

Difference in Marble and Ceramic Tile installation?
Sep 08, 2008 by Arthur G | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)
I am building a new home and being as a new do-it-yourselfer , I want to know the difference in Marble and Ceramic tile installation. Which is easy to install or alternatively i have to hire professionals for this purpose
Hi there, in my opinion the most important ingredient to any Marble job will be your 4' level. You see Ray because the average grout joint is either 1/16" for the experienced installer or 1/8" for the not so experienced, every tile will need to be either level or plumb to it's adjacent tile. Thats going to take time and patience as this will involve multiple handling of nearly every tile...either to add setting material or remove setting material because the floor or wall you are covering is seldom perfectly flat. There will always be a hump or bow or a belly that will need attention to make things run straight and true...follow me? I always use a larger notch trowel when doing Stone work. It makes having to deal with challenging substrates alot easier. Combing out more material may cost slightly more but it pays dividends at the point of install. One thing people don't understand about Natural Stone is the nearly all of the lighter colored stones have a degree of transparency to them. If you hold it up to a light you can see the shadow of your hand behind the stone so if you use a darker thinset (grey) then it will darken the shade of the stone, if you use a white thinset it will keep the stone close to the shade you liked when you picked it out in the first place. You should also "back butter" (skim a coat of thinset to the back of every piece of tile) the tile to maintain a uniform moisture level that will show through to the surface of the tile till it all cures out. Some times you can see where the installer used a 5 spot install for the stone because you will be able to "see" 5 circles (usually as round dark spots) right on the surface of the stone until it all dries out...even then, it doesn't necessarily always go completely away so the skim coat will eliminate that happening to any great degree ok? It won't matter whether you are installing the Marble on the wall or floor, or even the tub deck. The running plane must be flat tile to tile so visibly it will all look great, that's where the level will help you keep things running flat course to course both level and plumb. Ok Ray I hope this gives you a means to track your progress as you build or run out the Marble. Bear in mind that you shouldn't run more than 4' of tile "up" the wall as the weight of the stuff will crush down spacers too much as you go. Feel free to return anytime.If you want more information i search a web on net if you were interested visit the website which is given below.

what is the going rate for ceramic tile installation in metro Atlanta?
Jul 04, 2008 by dskd | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling
ceramic wall tile and 12x12 floor tile no marble
Depends on how much preparation of the floor is needed and how many complex cuts are necessary. Are you purchasing the tile and just want them installed or do you want a price on tile + installation. More detail is needed.

Is this a fair price for ceramic tile installation and a hole in the ceiling patch up?
Mar 12, 2009 by Uncle Sanity | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling
I have a 160 sq ft kitchen with old linoleum flooring on it.I had a contractor come by and he quoted 2000 to remove the linoleum, put cement board down, put the tiles down, and fix a small hole in the ceiling and paint it.The price does not cover the cost of the tiles, grout, and paint. I live in ny is that a fair price?
Thanks,
Considering the rip out and buying of the cement board and all the labor , its not to far out of line.. I have to know a few things though to be sure.. is the vinyl on a 1/4" sub flooring? Is he/she taking care of the rip out ( haul away and disposal) You did n t mention buying of the cement board ( I assume 1/2") And what about the thin set? E mail me thru my avatar w/ a few more specifics and I ll get you an accurate answer. With out these , no one can give an accurate answer.. GL

Hourly rate for ceramic tile installation?
May 22, 2006 by cheryl513 | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling
Chicago area and what's the going hourly rate to install ceramic tile?
although some installers may have an hourly rate most charge by the Sq.Ft. and the smaller the tile the more it costs.
(if some of the installers I've seen were getting hourly it would take 3 times as long to do the job!)
give me a description of the job and I'll tell what I'd charge
