Whole-home tile installation in Etobicoke and Toronto.
Every floor in the house on one schedule, done by the same hands from tear-out to final grout.
Send a few photos and the rough size — you get a written price the same day. No site visit, no sales call.
What's included
Everything in the quote, listed.
Written out so nothing appears as an extra later. If something on your job falls outside this, it is named in the quote — not discovered on the invoice.
- Tear-out of the old floor covering and mortar bed, and disposal
- Subfloor assessment room by room — slab, plywood or a mix of both
- Levelling compound or a rebuilt subfloor wherever the floor is out of plane
- Heated floor installed at the same time, where you want it
- Waterproofing to every wet area before a single tile goes down
- Setting, levelling, grouting and sealing throughout
- Movement joints and transitions where the floor changes room or material
- Trim, baseboard reinstatement and a clean site at the end of each day
How it is done
The parts of the job you will never see again.
Once the tile is down, every quote looks the same. This is what separates them while the floor is still open.
- 01
One plane through the whole floor, not room by room
A house tiled in stages ends up with a step at every doorway, because each room was levelled to itself. Doing the whole floor as one job means the datum is set once and carried through — you walk from the hall into the kitchen and feel nothing underfoot.
- 02
The layout is set before anything is fixed
Where the cuts land is decided in advance: full tiles in the sightlines, cuts pushed to the edges and under cabinet runs, and the grout lines lined up through the doorways so the floor reads as one surface instead of four separate ones.
- 03
Every subfloor treated for what it actually is
A basement slab, a plywood main floor over joists and a bathroom that has already been renovated twice all move differently. Each gets the preparation it needs — uncoupling membrane where a slab may crack, added rigidity where a plywood floor deflects.
- 04
The rooms are sequenced so you keep living there
The order of work is agreed before demolition: which bathroom stays usable while the other is open, when the kitchen floor goes down relative to the appliances, which day the house has no working shower. Written into the schedule, not improvised.
- 05
Movement joints where the building needs them
A large continuous floor has to be able to expand. Joints go in at doorways, at changes of substrate and around the perimeter, filled with flexible sealant, not grout. Grout in those joints is the most common reason a big tile floor cracks in its second year.

Levelling clips on every joint — the plane is set before the mortar goes off -
Custom mosaic floor, cut and set on site -
Cable run across the full floor, spacing kept even
What it costs
What actually moves the number.
Anyone quoting this job without seeing these four things is guessing, and the guess gets corrected halfway through the work.
-
What is under the old floor
The biggest unknown in any whole-home quote. A flat, sound slab needs very little; a plywood floor that has to be stiffened or a slab that needs 20 mm of levelling compound changes the number materially.
-
How much of it is wet area
Bathrooms and laundry rooms carry waterproofing and detailing that a hallway does not. Two bathrooms in the package cost more than the square footage suggests.
-
Tile format
Large-format slabs need levelling clips and two people to set. Mosaic and pattern work are slow for the opposite reason. The same room in a different tile is a different job.
-
Area — and this one works in your favour
The set-up, protection and preparation are paid for once instead of four times. The per-square-foot rate on a whole-home package is lower than on any single room in it.

Questions
What people ask about this job.
Can we stay in the house while the work happens?
Usually yes. The sequence is planned around it — one bathroom stays usable while the other is open, and the days without a working shower are agreed in writing before demolition starts.
Is it cheaper to tile the whole house at once than room by room?
Per square foot, yes. Protection, preparation and set-up happen once instead of four separate times, and there is only one mobilisation. It is also the only way to get one continuous plane through the doorways.
Do you handle the demolition and the disposal?
Yes. Old tile, mortar bed and underlay come out and go away — that is part of the same job, not a separate trade you have to arrange.
Can heated floors be added in some rooms and not others?
Yes, and doing it during a whole-home job is by far the cheapest moment, because the floors are already open. Bathrooms and basements are where people usually want it.
