Insured & GS-VettedTile Setters on your remodel
Showers, backsplashes, and floors — waterproofed substrates, level large-format tile, and grout lines that stay straight around corners.
What tile work looks like on a GS project
- Shower systems with modern waterproofing (Schluter and equivalent) — not just cement board
- Large-format and porcelain-slab tile with lippage-free flat installs
- Kitchen backsplashes, herringbone and mosaic feature walls
- Heated tile floors wired by our licensed electrical partners
When your project needs this trade
Nearly every kitchen and bathroom. Tile failures are almost always waterproofing failures — which is why we control the substrate, not just the tile.
How GS vets and supervises this trade
- 1. Credentials on file. Licensing wherever Illinois or your municipality requires it, plus current insurance certificates — checked before anyone sets foot on your property.
- 2. Proven on our jobs. Our bench is built from crews who have delivered on GS projects for years — not whoever answers a listing this week.
- 3. Supervised and sequenced. Your GS project lead schedules the crew, walks their work, and holds it to our punch-list standard before the next trade builds on top of it.
- 4. Covered by one warranty. Their work on your project is backed by GS — you call us, not them, if anything ever needs attention.
Tile Setters — common questions
- Why do tile quotes vary so much?
-
The invisible parts: waterproofing system, substrate prep, and layout time. A cheap tile job skips those and looks fine for a year. Our quotes itemize the system underneath so you know what you are comparing.
