Precision Surface & Subfloor Preparation – The Foundation of Every Flawless Tile Job

At Floors Depot, we don’t just install tile—we build it on a solid foundation.

Careful planning ensures lasting results, fewer delays, and helps keep your project on budget.
Our expert Vancouver team delivers flawless tile work where precision matters most—especially for complex layouts.
For professional-grade results, trust the pros who go beyond the surface.

​Here’s how we make it bulletproof:

Subfloor Levelling 

Uneven floors? We fix that. Our team applies self-leveling cementitious compounds to eliminate dips, humps, and inconsistencies—crucial for:

  • Large format tile installation

  • Floating bathroom vanities with floor tile below

  • Kitchens and hallways that require a level transition

This is standard with us—not an upsell, unlike other contractors.

Cement Board & Schluter Underlayment Installation

We install high-quality backer boards like Durock, HardieBacker, and Schluter®-DITRA to:

  • Reinforce tile bonding

  • Prevent deflection

  • Resist moisture and mold

Essential for all bathroom, kitchen, and wet-zone tile work across Vancouver homes and condos.

Crack Isolation Membranes

Tiles may be hard—but they crack when substrates shift. We use flexible crack isolation membranes (like Schluter® or Mapei) to:

  • Absorb movement

  • Protect tiles from sub-surface fractures

  • Extend the life of your installation

Especially important in older homes in East Vancouver, where floor structures may shift slightly over time.

Slope Creation for Shower Bases

Proper water drainage is non-negotiable. We create precisely measured slopes that:

  • Direct water toward linear or center drains

  • Meet BC building code requirements

  • Prevent standing water, mold growth, or leaking

We’ve re-done dozens of showers that failed due to flat or reverse sloping bases—ours never fail.

Waterproofing Membranes (RedGard, Schluter Kerdi, etc.)

We install waterproofing membranes under every shower, bathroom, laundry room, and outdoor tile job to ensure:

  • Zero moisture intrusion

  • Mold and mildew prevention

  • Tile longevity and structural protection

Whether you're building a steam shower in West Van or tiling a walkout patio in Mount Pleasant, we waterproof it to last.

Vapor Barriers & Under-Tile Moisture Protection

In areas like basements and laundry rooms, we use vapor barrier layers under tile systems to stop:

  • Ground moisture from creeping up

  • Adhesive deterioration over time

  • Tile delamination and grout discoloration

Essential in Vancouver’s damp coastal climate.

Tile Over Tile Prep – Safe, Secure, and Code-Compliant

Want to tile over old tile? No problem—if it’s done right. Our team:

  • Tests for structural soundness

  • Scuffs and primes the old tile

  • Applies specialized bonding agents

  • Ensures level, even adhesion

Perfect for condo remodels in Downtown Vancouver or cost-effective kitchen upgrades.

Cleaning and Maintenance – Keeping Your Tile Floors Beautiful for Years to Come

Proper cleaning and maintenance are key to preserving the beauty and durability of your new tile installation. At Floors Depot, we provide expert guidance to help you care for your tile floors, ensuring they remain a standout feature in your home for years to come. Regular sweeping and mopping with a mild detergent and warm water will keep your tiles looking fresh, especially in high traffic areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways.

For tougher stains or dirt buildup, we recommend specialized cleaning products and techniques—such as gentle scrubbing or steam cleaning—to maintain the pristine look of your natural stone tiles, porcelain tiles, or bigger tiles. Sealing your tile floors is another important step, protecting them from water, stains, and everyday wear. Our team can advise you on the best sealants for your specific tile style and show you how to apply and maintain them for long-lasting results.

By following our cleaning and maintenance tips, you’ll ensure that your investment in professional tile installation continues to pay off, whether it’s part of a bathroom renovation, kitchen remodel, or any other project. With a wide range of tile designs and styles to choose from, you can enjoy a home that not only looks great but is easy to care for and built to last.

Alex was a clear communicator. The job was done quickly and he was accommodating to our tight schedule. When some unforeseen challenges came up with the renovation (out of his control) he solved it and kept the project on schedule. Our floors look great, and the whole experience was stress free.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tile & Stone Installation in Vancouver

1. How much does professional tile installation cost in Vancouver?

Tile tile fitting in Vancouver typically ranges from $10 to $30 per square foot, which can become expensive depending on the tile material (ceramic, porcelain, stone), complexity of layout, subfloor prep, and waterproofing requirements. Tile costs themselves range from $4 to $8 per square foot, offering a variety of options to suit different budgets. We provide free, accurate estimates based on your project. The most expensive part of a bathroom renovation includes plumbing and electrical work, which should be factored into your budget.

2. What is the difference between porcelain and ceramic tile?

Porcelain tiles are denser, more durable, and more water-resistant than ceramic tiles, making them ideal for high-traffic floors and wet areas like bathrooms and showers. Ceramic tiles are more affordable, easier to cut, and great for walls, backsplashes, and low-moisture spaces. Ceramic tiles are also a popular choice for bathroom renovations due to their versatility and cost-effectiveness. A basic bathroom renovation can be done for $10,000 if options are limited.

3. Can you install tiles over existing tile floors or walls?

Yes, we offer tile-over-tile installation if the existing surface is level, secure, and properly prepared. We use specialized bonding agents, scuffing techniques, and leveling systems to ensure long-lasting adhesion—perfect for condo renovations and cost-effective upgrades.

4. How long does tile installation take for a bathroom or kitchen?

Most standard tile projects take 2 to 5 days, depending on surface prep, tile size, layout complexity, and drying times. Larger projects or intricate designs (like mosaics, herringbone, or natural stone) may take longer, but we always provide a clear timeline before we begin. For example, it typically takes 6 to 10 hours to tile an 8×10-foot room, depending on the level of detail required.
