Our Tile Types & Their Benefits

We focus almost exclusively on premium porcelain tile rather than ceramic. Porcelain is denser, less porous, more moisture-resistant, and more durable under heavy foot traffic. Its strength makes it a superior choice for areas exposed to water and frequent wear. We carry large-format porcelain and rectified porcelain tiles that are factory-cut with precise edges to minimize grout lines, giving your floors and walls a cleaner, more seamless look.

In addition, our showroom features a wide variety of mosaic tiles and decorative backsplash tile displays. These allow customers to add accent walls, design borders, or intricate patterns to enhance visual appeal in kitchens, baths, or feature walls.

Quality Assurance & Guarantees

Quality is at the heart of what we do. Our in-house crews, not subcontractors, handle all tile installations. This ensures consistent workmanship, accountability, and oversight from our team. We use industry best practices for subfloor prep, tile layout, sealing, and grout work to prevent common failures like cracking or improper waterproofing.

We also back our work with The Beautiful Guarantee®. If you are not satisfied with your installed tile flooring or backsplash, we offer replacements under this guarantee, which is carefully defined to clarify expectations.

What To Expect During the Installation Process

When you work with Carpet One Floor & Home of Central Florida, our installation process is designed for clarity, efficiency, and high quality. You should expect:

• Accurate measurement and layout planning in our showroom or on-site, including selection of tile size and grout color.
• Preparation of the substrate, with leveling and a moisture barrier where needed, is essential since a well-prepped base is essential for tile performance.
• Precise cutting, fitting, and aligning, especially for large-format and rectified tile, to ensure tight joints and clean edges.
• Grouting and sealing where applicable; selecting grout that complements tile, resists staining, and matches room use.
• Thorough cleanup and inspection with client walkthrough to ensure you love the result.

Important Factors When Choosing Tile

Here are key considerations to help you pick tile floors that work beautifully and last a lifetime:

• Room purpose: Floors vs walls have different requirements; showers and bathrooms need waterproofing considerations.
• Tile size and edges: Large-format and rectified tiles reduce grout lines, offer a modern feel, and require precise installation.
• Slip resistance & finish: Matte or textured finishes are used for wet areas, and polished finishes are used for low-slip risk zones.
• Grout color & maintenance: Dark grout hides dirt; light grout shows grout lines more but can be cleaned and sealed regularly.
• Design style: Matching tile color, pattern, and layout (e.g. mosaic border, feature wall) with your home's existing decor.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

Even with good tile options, mistakes in selection or installation can reduce the beauty or longevity of the work. Here are some pitfalls and our solutions:

1. Budget your flooring costs accordingly, and always buy extra tile for cuts, mistakes, or breakage.
2. Don't just choose your tile for its appearance! Consider durability, slip rating, and moisture resistance.
3. Using the wrong substrate or skipping prep leads to uneven tile, cracks, or improper drainage.
4. Consider your floor's layout. Poor layouts may result in poor appearance with grout lines, patterns, or edge transitions.
5. Improper grout sealing or using harsh cleaning products may lead to staining, discoloration, or grout breakdown.

Design Help & Custom Projects

We believe tile flooring and backsplash should be as artistic as they are functional. At Carpet One CF, we help customers design custom layouts, accent walls, and decorative features. Frequent custom projects include:

• Bathroom remodels: Full walk-in showers, floor-to-ceiling wall tile, custom shower niches.
• Backsplash work: Kitchen backsplashes, mosaic feature strips, coordinating tile with cabinets and countertops.
• Vanity installations: Integrating tile surround, shower door, and flooring in a cohesive design.
• Tile flooring: Main rooms, hallways, and baths, using high-quality porcelain and rectified large tiles to eliminate visual disruption.

Tile & Heated Flooring Compatibility

If you plan on installing underfloor heating, our porcelain tile options are well-suited thanks to their thermal conductivity and low porosity. We partner with trusted heated floor system manufacturers and ensure proper installation in “wet” and “warm” rooms so that the tile performs well, offering even warmth without cracking or fatigue.
