"DO NOT HIRE TIM BARTLETT RUN don’t walk away from Tim Bartlett. His work is horrible. He has no idea how modern tile is laid. He has never worked with contemporary systems such as Kerdi. He tried to install a shower for us with NO waterproofing. He ruined $2500 worth of tile and never even apologized. When I gently pointed out the obvious errors and horrible workmanship in different tile work he was continuing, he walked off the job. And stole parts I had already paid cash for. A total hack. Untrustworthy. Horrible workmanship. No care or pride. Just interested in making a buck. It took me several weeks to repair the damage he had done to my house. I literally had to tear out all of his work and do it myself. I am builder and have done many high end bathroom remodels. I have NEVER seen workmanship this bad. AVOID."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain installation projects in South-Lyme, CT

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.
