About Our Tile Contractor Services

Good tile work is one of those things you notice when it is done wrong. Uneven grout lines, lippage between tiles, cracked corners on a fireplace surround — it all comes down to who installed it. At Adam Baker Masonry, tile is part of our trade. We have been setting tile across Grand Rapids and West Michigan for three generations.

We handle everything from kitchen backsplash tile to large-format porcelain floors, fireplace refacing to accent walls. Whether you are upgrading your kitchen, tiling an entryway, or refacing a fireplace with marble-look porcelain, we bring the same level of precision and care to every job.

Michigan homes deal with temperature swings and heavy foot traffic. That means tile installations need proper substrate prep, the right thinset for the application, and careful leveling to prevent cracking and lippage. We do not cut corners on what goes under the tile, because that is what makes the difference between a floor that lasts five years and one that lasts fifty.

Frequently Asked Questions

What factors affect a tile installation project?

Tile size, pattern complexity, and substrate preparation all influence the scope. Large-format tiles require a flatter subfloor and more precise installation. Kitchen backsplash projects are typically simpler than full floor tile installations. We provide free estimates for every tile project.

What type of tile is best for kitchen floors?

Porcelain tile is the best choice for kitchen floors in Michigan. It absorbs almost no water, resists scratches from dropped cookware, and handles heavy foot traffic without showing wear. We recommend matte or textured finishes for slip resistance.

How long does a tile installation take?

A kitchen backsplash takes one to two days. A kitchen floor typically runs two to four days. A fireplace refacing takes three to five days. Larger floor projects vary based on square footage and pattern complexity.

Do you do tile repair and replacement?

Yes. We repair cracked tiles, replace damaged sections, regrout worn joints, and fix failing installations. In many cases, we can source matching tile to blend seamlessly with your existing work.
