Super Service Award winner annually from 2013-2023 in Murfreesboro and surrounding Tennessee Areas!! We are fully licensed and insured to work on both commercial and residential properties. We specialize in flooring, both sales and installation. We bring the samples right to your home or place of business providing you with excellent quality of service and product lower than our competitors. Installer Direct has been installing hardwood, tile, laminate, carpet and many other kinds of flooring as well as back splashes and custom tile showers for over 28 years in Rutherford and Davidson Counties. We sell hardwood, carpet, laminate and vinyl for less than flooring stores because of our low overhead and direct buying power. We also offer sale and installation of luxury vinyl plank flooring. Our 12 mm product is a better quality and a lower cost than you will find in large box stores; this allows us to be competitive with our pricing. Luxury vinyl plank is completely waterproof! What sets us apart from most flooring companies is that the installer is also your salesman. In most cases a salesman with little to no experience at installing flooring will come out and measure and then on the day installation someone you have never met will come in and start installing the flooring. When you call Installer Direct the installer will come out, give you a free detailed estimate, and be able to answer any questions that you may have. They can find out exactly what specific ideas and care that your home will need and it won't get lost in translation between salesman and installer. We put our customers first, and because of that, we leave every job with the customer's full satisfaction.

"Amazing transformation of red oak and replacement of old kitchen tile floors. Our 1940s red oak now looks like white oak and the herringbone pattern in our kitchen is perfection. Thank you!"

"Can’t recommend this company enough. My wife and I hired Brandi and her team to install our kitchen backsplash and were blown away. Brandi responded immediately, they arrived on time, and they did an outstanding job in just a few hours.

Both materials work well, so start by thinking about foot traffic and budget. Porcelain is denser and absorbs less water, so it’s ideal for busy entries, kitchens, and baths—even if it costs a little more.
Ceramic is lighter, easier to cut, and comes in a wider range of styles, making it a solid pick for walls or light-use floors. Match the tile’s durability rating to the space, and you’ll get the best balance of looks, performance, and price.
A solid subfloor starts with a flat, crack-free surface. Your installer will level any low spots, reinforce weak areas, and screw down fiber-cement backer board or quality plywood before setting tile.
Skipping this step invites movement, cracked grout, and even water damage—issues that are far pricier than prep work. Hire a pro to get the base right, and your new tile will look sharp and stay put for years.
Give the thin-set 24 to 48 hours to cure before you start grouting. Rushing the process can nudge tiles out of place, weaken the bond, and create cracks you’ll have to fix later. Keep foot traffic off the area until you’re ready to grout, and you’ll lock in a strong, even finish that lasts.
Tile size changes the workload. Large-format pieces mean fewer grout lines and faster coverage, but they’re heavier and need careful handling to avoid breakage and lippage. Small mosaics create intricate looks yet take more time to set and space correctly, so labor costs climb. Weigh your style goals against the extra effort (and budget) each option requires before you decide.
You can leave tiles ungrouted for a short window, but only if the surface stays clean and undisturbed. Once the thin-set cures, finish the job as soon as possible. Grout seals joints against moisture and locks the layout in place; waiting too long invites dirt, water, and movement that can shorten the life of your new surface.
Use at least two millimeter spacers on walls and three millimeter spacers on floors to give grout room to bond and absorb normal expansion. Larger, rustic tiles may call for wider joints, while precision-cut porcelain often looks best with tighter gaps. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and local code, and you’ll end up with an even, long-lasting layout.
