Our 6-Step Tile Installation Process in Vancouver
Every project follows TCNA Handbook installation guidelines and meets ASTM C627 service ratings appropriate to its location.
- STEP 01
On-Site Assessment
A senior installer visits, photographs the substrate, takes laser-level readings, and discusses tile choice, layout, and timing. No charge, no obligation.
- STEP 02
Line-Itemised Written Quote
You receive a transparent breakdown of materials, labour hours, demolition, waterproofing, and contingencies, locked in writing before any deposit is taken.
- STEP 03
Substrate Prep & Waterproofing
Self-levelling underlayment to TCNA-spec flatness (±1/8″ over 10 ft), uncoupling membrane, Kerdi-Band corners, and bonded waterproofing in all wet areas.
- STEP 04
Tile Setting with Lippage Control
Large-format tiles are back-buttered and set with Levtec™ clips; cuts are made on a wet saw for chip-free edges; layout is dry-laid first to balance sightlines.
- STEP 05
Grout, Seal & 2-Year Warranty
Colour-matched grout, penetrating sealer where required, on-site cleanup, and a written 2-year workmanship guarantee handed to you in person.
- STEP 06
Final Walkthrough & 30-Day Check-In
We walk the finished installation with you, hand over a written care plan with sealer-refresh dates, and follow up at 30 days to inspect grout lines and resolve any concerns.
Founded by a master installer.Run by people who still set tile.
Slava founded Superior Tile Contracting in Pitt Meadows in 2012 after a decade of setting tile on commercial sites where the tolerances were measured in millimetres, not eighth-inches. Today, our in-house crew of 20+ certified installers handles everything from a single 48\u2033 porcelain entryway to multi-floor retail rollouts \u2014 in Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Coquitlam, the North Shore, the Fraser Valley, and as far east as the Greater Toronto Area. Every job site is supervised by a senior installer with skin in the game, not a salesperson with a clipboard.

Tile Installation Questions Answered
Answers to the most common questions Vancouver homeowners and businesses ask about tile, flooring, and our services.
Tile installation in Vancouver typically ranges from $8 to $25 per square foot for labour, depending on tile size, pattern complexity, and substrate preparation. Large format tiles (24×24″ and above) cost more due to specialized levelling systems. Superior Tile Contracting provides free, detailed quotes so you know exact costs before work begins.
Large format tile refers to any tile with one side longer than 15 inches — popular sizes include 24×48″ and 48×48″. Fewer grout joints create a seamless, modern look and make cleaning easier. Our crew uses Levtec™ lippage-control systems to ensure dead-flat results on every installation across Vancouver.
Yes — tile is actually the ideal surface for in-floor radiant heat because it conducts and retains warmth efficiently. We install both electric mat and hydronic systems beneath porcelain and ceramic tile. Most Vancouver bathroom or kitchen retrofits take 2–3 days including the tile overlay.
A standard bathroom floor takes 1–2 days, a full kitchen backsplash 1 day, and a whole-home flooring project 5–7 days. Timelines depend on substrate condition, waterproofing needs, and tile size. We provide a detailed schedule at your free consultation so there are no surprises.
Proper large-tile installation requires a perfectly flat substrate (±1/8″ over 10 ft), back-buttering each tile, and using a mechanical levelling system like Levtec clips. Our installers are certified in large format techniques, which is why we maintain a 4.9★ Google rating across 58+ reviews.
Absolutely. We serve restaurants, retail stores, offices, hotels, and multi-unit developments throughout Metro Vancouver. Our commercial team works evenings and weekends to minimize business disruption, and all installations meet ASTM C627 standards for heavy commercial foot traffic.
Polished concrete is low-maintenance: dust-mop daily, damp-mop weekly with a pH-neutral cleaner, and re-apply a penetrating sealer every 2–3 years. Avoid acidic cleaners or abrasive pads. We include a maintenance guide with every polishing project and offer re-sealing services for Vancouver clients.
Yes. Superior Tile Contracting is fully licensed, bonded, and insured with comprehensive general liability and WorkSafeBC coverage. Founded in 2012 by Slava, we’ve completed 2,000+ projects across Greater Vancouver with zero unresolved claims in 14+ years.
