Planning For Success On Your Tile Project

Aug 26, 2024 | 4:32 PM

Successful projects take meticulous planning, and renovation projects are no exception. For a rundown on the process they follow for their bathroom renos, we spoke with Dennis from Arden Tile.

Begin with the basics

Go by the store with some general ideas of what you have in mind for your bathroom, as well as a rough estimate of the size of your space. Described this introductory meeting, Dennis said “We can talk about the scope of your project, come up with ideas of product styles and colours that you like, so we can find products that match your taste.”

Plan to make a plan

Next up is an on-site meeting at your home to design your bathroom and discuss options. Choices like heated floors, and design features such as a shower bench, shaving ledge or shower niche are discussed at this meeting. Features like these play a big part in customizing a space into your dream bathroom, and deliver long-term benefits that you’ll thank yourself for!

All-inclusive quote

With a plan in place, Arden Tile creates an all-inclusive quote that provides product and installation costs. You can add or remove options to ensure the project stays within your budget. It’s at this time the details such as grout colour, tillage, finish, and tile layout design are finalized.

Schedule the project

Once approved, we can take a material deposit and work you into our schedule. Dennis pointed out that it’s important to understand that wait times for products and installation can be well over a month. If you have a particular date you need your project completed, it’s good to get the process started.

Installation

“During installation, we encourage installer-customer interactions,” stated Dennis. “This allows the smaller details to be discussed before tiling begins. And you, the customer, can be part of the installation.”
