Wood Look Plank Tile Installation – Marsh Landing CC

/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store 904.887.8303 sells and installs a wide variety of tiles, with many sample tiles on display in our Ponte Vedra showroom. And we also can install tiles provided by clients and local building contractors we work with.

For this job, the owners of a home in the North Island section of the Marsh Island Golf and Country Club community of Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida provided us the wood look floor tiles for our crew to install. There were 3 different plank tiles used for this job. We installed their tile in the separate Casita, as well as the office, master bedroom, upstairs bonus room, and on the stairs that led up to bonus room.

Our work started by prepping; taking out all of the carpet from these areas as well as from the stairs. We spotted some small cracks in the concrete slab subfloor. Small, surface stress cracks in poured concrete floors can appear as the home settles. Our crew fills in cracks wider than 1/4″ wide. Then we applied Bostick Leveler to the concrete slab subfloors. The Leveler also fills in the smaller cracks in the concrete subfloor. Our crew sanded the edges of the sheet plywood to level the floors subfloors upstairs. We also squared the stairs off with Hardibacker board. Squaring the stairs like this gives better final results when we laminate the stairway with tile. Proper prepping for any job is important!

In the bonus room, our team installed Ditra membrane by Schluter as an underlayment, between the sheet plywood subfloor and the tile. Ditra is lighter than Hardibacker board. Ditra is a little more expensive but designed specifically for ceramic and stone tile installations to ensure the durability and integrity of the installation; a great product.

Once all of this prep work was done, our crew installed the client’s wood look plank tile, and our client agreed; it looks amazing! Dan’s Floor Store always likes to have happy clients.

Hickory Wood Look Floor Tile – Ponte Vedra Sawgrass

/in /by

Dan’s Floor Store was selected to be part of a home improvement project in the Ponte Vedra Sawgrass community. The homeowners wanted to replace their old carpeting and some tiled flooring with new, wood look tile flooring.

We began work on this project with removal of the old carpeting, and existing tiled flooring.

Next we leveled the concrete subfloor. Floor leveling is very important in preparation for installation of new hard surface flooring. Unlevel floors can cause wood or tile flooring to crack, reducing the life of the new flooring and requiring replacement of the wood or tile flooring.

Dan’s Floor Store recommends the quality wood look porcelain tiles made by Daltile. These wood look tiles will resist moisture, are easy to maintain, and the tiles even help with heating and cooling (because porcelain remains cool to the touch, as a result of its composition). Digital imaging and high-tech manufacturing produce wood-grain porcelain tiles with very realistic textures and visual details.  It’s often difficult to distinguish wood look tiles from real wood flooring without taking a much closer look.

We installed the 6″ x 36″ wood-look floor tile planks in a three step pattern, running side to side in the home.

Our clients are very happy with their tile installation home improvements by Dan’s Floor Store. And we always like to have happy clients!

If you are thinking about improving the look and value of your home with tile or stone work, give Dan’s Floor Store a call 904.887.8303 to make an appointment for a free consultation and estimate.

If your next home improvement project involves new wood floors (whether solid wood, engineered wood, or laminate), or refinishing the wood flooring you have, don’t forget we are very experienced with wood, too.

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.
