By Christine Long


Even small errors in floors, walls or bathroom tiles can be such am eye sore. If for instance one tile is mis-positioned, it will have a negative effect on the pattern and grout line. Worse still, the fixing of tiles that are improperly fixed will be costly, messy and disruptive. This is more so when some water has seeped through it and ruined ceilings or finished walls. When selecting ceramic tile contractors Boulder residents need to go for the very best.

There are a number of useful tips when it comes to choice of the best contractors. Among the first things would be to ask friends or workmates for recommendations on the best installers that they might know. If such people know reputable installers, they need to recommend them. After you have a shortlist of a number of them, you need to research for further details about them before making a final choice.

After you do some research on probable installers, you need to ask them for quotes for the services to be offered. You need to obtain quotes from a minimum of three contractors. It is not a good idea to choose the lowest one because there is not surety that their services are the best. It is best to check for top quality services and at competitive prices. The most important thing when it comes to tile installation is quality of work.

Insurance is very crucial when choosing tiling professionals. You must never hire installers that are not fully insured. This is important so that if an accident occurs or something goes wrong, insured contractors are able to rectify arising issues or damages. In addition, they will need to have workers liability cover. With that, a client is protected in the event that there is an accident or injury on site during the work.

When hiring tiling professionals, it will be a good idea to ask whether you can visit their current job site. After getting there, you will need to get a sense of how organized the work is. Since tilers have to work quickly to take advantage of adhesives and mortars, neatness is a major consideration. The best tilers usually do cutting of tiles from outside to reduce the effect of dust and messy backs-plash.

The majority of contractors will prefer to be the ones to purchase the tiles. This is recommended. They tend to have discounts from the suppliers and thus will end up charging you less or in some occasions the same as what the supplier would have charged. There are many types of tiles, finishes and edge treatments, which is why it is better that the purchase is done by the professional.

Still on the purchase of tiles, a contractor is better placed to handled issues of warranty and guarantees with the suppliers. As a matter of fact, a client usually already has a written guarantee that the contractor will stand behind his work. It is therefore in the best interest of contractors to buy quality materials.

The majority of tiling works also include demolition fees. However, there are clients that might prefer to leave that out. If that is the case, they should be in a position to do the demolitions.
