Shower area with new tile installed.

Tiling Two Showers in Mandarin

/in /by

For this home improvement project, our client wanted new tile installed in two shower areas in their home in the Mandarin neighborhood of Jacksonville, Florida. They selected Tesola Silver in 12″ by 12″ and 2″ by 2″ mosaic, glazed ceramic tile by Emser Tile for both showers. One shower area retained the tub. In the other shower area, the tub was removed to make space for a larger showering area.

Our crew “demo’d” (did the necessary material removal work) in both shower areas. This also gave the plumber access for his work. The plumber removed the tub from one shower area, and installed the shower pans. Once all of this work was done by the plumber, our tile job could commence.

First, we hung all of the Hardibacker boards, to serve as the substrate for our tile installation.

After the Hardibacker boards were installed, our crew waterproofed the showers with Red Guard, mudding the pans of the showers with the proper slope, to drain well.

With our prep work done, we installed the Emser Tesola Silver tiles.

When our customer saw the two, newly tiled shower areas, they were very happy with the outcome. And Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients.

Caribbean Rosewood Flooring and Porcelain Tile Install in Eagle Harbor

/in , /by

Caribbean rosewood flooring and Emser tiled foyerDan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 was contracted to do the flooring work in a whole home renovation in the Eagle Harbor community of Fleming Island, Florida.

Our work began by removal of all of the carpeting and sheet vinyl that had been installed in the home. Next we did a lot of leveling of the concrete subfloor, to prepare it for the wood flooring and porcelain tile installation. Our clients chose engineered 3″ wide Caribbean Rosewood flooring by Tesoro Woods to replace their old carpeting. Our crew installed the Caribbean Rosewood flooring in the hallway, main living room, both bedrooms, and closets.

And they chose 12″ x 24″ porcelain tile in the Homestead cream pattern by Emser tile to replace the sheet vinyl flooring. We installed tile in the foyer, the kitchen / dining room, 2 bathrooms, and the laundry room.

Our clients told us that they loved the look of their new wood and tile floors! And Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients!

Wood Look Tiles and River Rock Installation in Atlantic Beach

/in /by

Homeowners in Atlantic Beach called us for a free consultation and estimate for installing wood look tile and river rock flooring for some of the floors and bath and shower areas of their home.

Wood look porcelain tile by DaltileWe recommend the quality wood look porcelain tiles made by Daltile. They resist moisture, are easily maintained, and help with heating and cooling (because porcelain remains cool to the touch owing to its composition). Digital imaging and high-tech manufacturing produce wood-grain porcelain tiles with realistic textures and visual details.  Often, it is difficult to distinguish wood look tiles from wood without taking a much closer look.

The project involved installing 1000 square feet of wood look floor tiles, and also installing wood look tile in the two shower areas in the home.

One shower area was a stand up shower, in which we installed River Rock flooring by Emser Tile and mirror image corners. The other shower area that we tiled was a tub and shower surround.

The first step of the flooring installation portion of this project was cleaning and leveling the concrete subfloor. As these photos show, there was a massive amount of leveling that had to take place to ensure a flat floor prior to the tile installation.

These photos show us installing the wood look floor tiles. The tile installation was executed in a three step pattern, in which every other one will repeat. The tiles were centered up nicely in the long hallway. One of the installation photos shows some of the intricate tile cuts required to follow the outline of the natural stone surface around the fireplace foundation.

Here are some photos of the wood look tiles being installed on the walls of the tub & shower surround.

And these photos show the wood look floor tiles and tub and shower surround tiles, and River Rock floor installed.

Red Oak Stair Treads and Wood-Look Floor Tiles – Plantation Country Club

/in , /by

New wood-look floor tilesA client in the Plantation community in Ponte Vedra wanted the treads in the staircase of their home replaced with new, solid Red Oak treads to match the existing solid Red Oak wood flooring in the home.

Our client also wanted some wood-look floor tiles installed in an entry way in their home.

Dan’s Floor Store installed, sanded, hand scraped, and stained the new, solid Red Oak stair treads to match the shade of the existing Red Oak flooring. Then we coated the treads with three coats of Bona Traffic finish.

  • We use Bona Traffic because it’s proven to provide a durable finish, and stair treads in a home or business always see a lot of traffic wear.

For the second project in this charming home, the client selected Emser wood-look ceramic tile from their Grove collection

  • We installed the 6″ by 24″ Emser wood-look floor tiles in an entry way hall of the home, which connects the garage, laundry room and bath.

Dan’s Floor Store enjoys helping clients make improvements to their homes and businesses. Our client was very pleased with our finished work.

If you want to:

  • give the stairs in your home or business a new look
  • improve your home with new tile or stone floors or new wood floors (whether solid wood, engineered wood, or laminate)
  • refinish your old wood flooring

Wood Look Floor Tile in Jacksonville Beach

/in /by

Wood look floor tile (also known as faux wood floor tile) offers the natural look, rich colors and warmth of real wood planks, the rustic look of wood grain and the durability of ceramic or porcelain tile.

The cost of wood look floor tiles versus actual wood plank flooring makes the choice of one material or the other a matter of personal preferences.

Following one of our free Dan’s Floor Store consultations, owners of a home in Jacksonville Beach, Florida decided on porcelain tiles with beautiful wood grain in dark tones by Emser Tile.

Before installing the faux wood floor tiles, we prepared the concrete sub floor by removing the prior flooring, cleaning the surface, and making sure it was sufficiently flat for tile installation.

These wood look floor tiles give a new look and feel to this friendly Jacksonville Beach home.
