What A Tiling Project Covers.

Open a section below to see what each part of the work involves. MDK Renovations designs and installs tile for kitchens and bathrooms across Ottawa, including wall tile and floor tile. Tell us which parts matter most for your space and we can discuss them together.

Surface Preparation And Wet Areas

Tile sits on whatever is underneath it, so the surface is prepared before anything is set. Showers, tub surrounds and bathroom floors are wet areas and are treated differently from a kitchen wall. Tell us about the room and we can talk through what the surface needs.

Tile Layout And Cuts

Layout decides where full tiles land and where cuts fall. Cuts around outlets, switches, a range hood, a window return or a door jamb are part of the work. We can walk through the layout with you before installation begins.

Setting And Grout Joints

Tile is set to an even plane with consistent joints, then grouted. Joint width and grout colour change how the finished surface reads, so they are worth choosing alongside the tile rather than afterwards.

Corners, Edges And Transitions

Outside corners, the top edge of a backsplash, a niche opening and the point where tile meets another floor all need a finished detail. These edges are where tile work is usually judged, so we plan them with you.

Tile Finish Details

Format, layout and joint detail change how a room reads long before colour does. In the illustration below, look at the running bond layout, how the level courses carry around the inside corner and how the tile meets the tub along the joint at the rim. Bring the look you like to the conversation and we can talk through what it takes to install it.

Tiling And Backsplash Questions

What Tiling Work Does MDK Renovations Cover?

The work can cover large format tile, bathroom floor tile, tub surround tile, shower wall tile, kitchen floor tile, backsplash tile, fireplace wall tile, groutless veneer tile and home foyer tile. Tell us which parts matter most for your space and we can discuss them together.

Do You Tile Both Walls And Floors?

Yes. We design and install several types of tile, including kitchen and bathroom wall tile and floor tile.

Can You Help Me Choose The Tile?

Yes. We can suggest tile for your home based on how the room is used and the look you want, so the choice suits both function and appearance.

What Is Groutless Veneer Tile?

Groutless veneer tile is one of the tile products listed on this page. It is a specific product choice rather than a description of how tile is installed generally, and it is not suitable everywhere. Ask us about it for your room and we can tell you whether it suits the space.

What Should I Have Ready Before Asking For A Quote?

Photographs of the room, rough measurements, the surfaces you want tiled and any tile you have already looked at are all useful. If you are not sure, send what you have and we can ask about the rest.

How Is Tile Looked After Once It Is Installed?

Tiled surfaces are cleaned with products suited to the tile and the grout you chose. We can tell you what your specific tile and grout need once those are selected.

Which Areas Around Ottawa Do You Serve?

We work across Ottawa and nearby communities, including Greely, Alta Vista, Rockcliffe Park, Nepean, North Gower, Findlay Creek, Westboro, Barrhaven, Metcalfe, Riverside South, Orléans, Stittsville, Kanata, Manotick, The Glebe, Kemptville and Gloucester.
