Services
Tile and Remodeling Services We Offer
What services does Western Standard Tile offer?
Western Standard Tile focuses on residential work. The main service is bathroom remodeling, along with shower renovations, tub to shower conversions, tile installation, tile repair and larger home remodels. Every job is in a home, from a single cracked floor tile to a full bathroom that is taken down to the studs and rebuilt. The full list is on the tile and remodeling services page.
Do you work with ceramic tile and other materials?
Yes. The company installs ceramic tile and other residential tile on floors, walls, showers and backsplashes. The right tile depends on the room, how much water it sees and how much foot traffic it gets. During the estimate, you can talk through the options that fit your space. More detail is on the tile installation page.
Can you fix a few damaged tiles instead of replacing the whole floor?
Often, yes. A few cracked or loose tiles can usually be removed and replaced, and tired grout can be cleaned out and redone. The catch is finding a close match for older tile. If the original tile is no longer made, the options get discussed before any work starts. See tile repair for the kinds of repairs the company handles.
How Much Does a Bathroom Remodel Cost, and What Shapes It?
How much does a bathroom remodel cost?
Every bathroom is priced on its own, because no two rooms have the same size, layout or condition. The biggest factors are the size of the room, the tile you choose, whether plumbing moves, and what is found behind the old walls and floors. The estimate lists the work so you can see where the cost goes. Learn more about bathroom remodel planning.
What affects tile installation cost per square foot?
Tile installation cost per square foot depends on the tile itself, the size of the pieces, the pattern and the condition of the surface underneath. Large tiles, small mosaics and detailed patterns take more time to set. Floors that are uneven or damaged need prep work first. Removing old tile also adds labor. See tile installation services for more on how a job is planned.
Is it cheaper to convert a tub or to remodel the whole bathroom?
A conversion changes one part of the room, so it is usually a smaller project than a full remodel. A full remodel touches the floor, the walls, the fixtures and often the layout. The better choice depends on what is wrong with the room and how long you plan to stay. Read about the tub to shower conversion process to compare.
Scheduling, Process and Cleanup
How long does a bathroom remodel take?
The timeline depends on the size of the room, how much is being replaced and when the tile and fixtures arrive. A small update moves faster than a full remodel with new plumbing and a custom shower. Tile also needs time for setting and grouting between steps. The schedule is set once the plan is agreed. You can request an estimate to get a timeline for your room.
How do I get started on a project?
Start with a phone call to (737) 335-5409 or a message through the contact page. Share a few photos of the room, rough measurements and what you want to change. From there, the company sets a time to see the space in person, talks through your goals and prepares an estimate for the work before anything is scheduled.
Will I be able to use my home during the work?
In most cases, yes. A bathroom or shower project closes off that one room while the work is underway, so a second bathroom makes the weeks easier. Floor projects may close off a hallway or living area for a short time while tile sets. Ask about access and dust control during the estimate so you can plan around the work.
