Installing Tile in Your Home? Here’s Why a Professional Should Do It

When you’re installing tile in your home, it can be tempting to do the installation yourself to save money. However, there are many advantages of hiring a professional that you should consider. Here are 4 benefits of professional tile installation that you should know about.

Time Savings
Any DIY job takes time to get the hang of the process. Tile installation can be extremely time-consuming because corners can’t be cut in the planning, designing, cutting, or installation process. Professionals navigate the process quickly without the mistakes and delays that often occur in a DIY job.

Money Savings
Mistakes in tile installation can be costly in materials and time. In addition, the proper tools for cutting and grouting the tile are very expensive. Paying for installation makes more sense than purchasing expensive equipment you may not ever use again. In fact, you may end up spending more money for tools than what professional installation would cost.

Less Waste
One mistake many homeowners make when installing tile themselves is over or underestimating how much tile will be needed. Mistakes can result in wasted materials and the need to buy more tile and grout than would have originally been needed for the job. Professionals will measure accurately and have the perfect amount of materials on hand to avoid waste.

Warranty Protection
Finally, depending on the tile warranty, you may be voiding it by installing it yourself. In many cases a warranty stipulates that the tile must be professionally installed. Improper installation could damage the tile or grout, which means the manufacturer is unlikely to honor a warranty if the installation wasn’t done professionally. If you do encounter defective materials later on, professional installation can help you avoid issues with a warranty.
