"I recently had my entire bathroom remodeled, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The team’s workmanship, communication, and experience were truly impressive from start to finish. I’ll admit, at first, I thought the cost was a bit higher than I had expected — but as the project went on, I realized I was the one who got the deal. Their attention to detail and the quality of their work proved it was worth every penny. I tend to have a bit of OCD when it comes to details, but they not only met my expectations — they exceeded them. Every corner, tile, and fixture was installed with such precision and care that it actually calmed my need to double-check things! They didn’t just focus on what I could see — they also made sure everything behind the walls, under the floors, and within the plumbing was done right. They were always on top of their game: professional, punctual, and incredibly clean. When the job was finished, they left me with a spotless space and a beautiful bathroom that still makes me smile every time I walk in. It’s rare to find a crew that takes such pride in their craftsmanship, communicates clearly, and makes you feel confident every step of the way. I would absolutely hire them again and will be referring them to friends and family without hesitation."

"Be Water Tight" At Phelps Construction Inc. we have handled a wide variety of commercial and residential projects for clients. And, we couldn't have done it without our dedicated staff.

"Outstanding job, great customer service, great quality of work, great work ethic. It is so nice to have a contractor who does what they say they are going to do and shows up when they say they are going to show up.

Master electrician and Class A general contractor with government and commercial experience as well as residential.

"After two failed General Contractors I brought Rez Electric on-board to add a screened-in porch on the third level of my home. Rob and his Team immediately and showed me problems with the new build as well as the existing structure. Due to exceptionally poor workmanship on both the new and original structure, it took almost two years and a lot of money to complete the renovations. Rob and his Team were diligent, provided high-quality work and NEVER GAVE UP! At the end of the day, Rez Electric practically rebuilt our home including, but not necessarily limited to, framing, all new windows and doors (including sliders), all new siding (cement board), new front and rear porches and a new patio, new flat roof-top decks, new lighting, millwork, whole-home generator, dry-wall work and painting (interior & exterior) - plus an awesome screened in porch (the original project!). Rob also coordinate the addition of gutters, landscaping and fencing. He remained in constant contact, initiated and returned phone-calls, emails and texts. He always check to see if we were satisfied. Rob and his Team restored my faith in contractors."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain installation projects in Smithfield, VA

Labor costs for ceramic tile installation range from $3 to $15 per square foot, varying based on your location and project complexity. Basic grid patterns on well-prepared surfaces fall toward the lower end of this range, while intricate designs or installations requiring extensive preparation command premium rates. Most professionals calculate charges based on square footage rather than hourly rates, with labor representing 60 to 70% of the total project cost.

For a 1000-square-foot ceramic tile installation, expect to pay between $12,000 and $45,000 total, though most standard residential projects trend toward the lower half of this range. This breaks down to $12 to $45 per square foot for materials and labor combined. Projects of this magnitude often qualify for volume discounts, potentially reducing your per-square-foot cost, especially when using standard tile types and straightforward installation patterns.

Tile installation requires significant expertise, specialized tools, and meticulous attention to detail throughout multiple labor-intensive stages. Professionals must properly prepare surfaces, apply appropriate adhesives, precisely cut and place each tile, and finish with proper grouting and sealing. The process involves critical waiting periods between steps for proper curing. Improper installation can lead to expensive problems, including water damage, cracked tiles, and mold growth, making professional expertise particularly valuable.

The 3/4/5 rule uses basic geometry to ensure tile layouts begin with perfectly square corners. Installers measure three feet along one wall and four feet along the perpendicular wall, then verify that the diagonal between these points measures exactly five feet. This triangulation technique, based on the Pythagorean theorem, confirms right angles and helps prevent alignment problems that would become increasingly noticeable as installation progresses across the room.
