Tile in Boulder's older bathrooms and kitchens
Early-20th-century homes in Whittier and Mapleton Hill often have small bathrooms where a classic hex mosaic or subway-and-field pairing looks perfectly at home. In mid-century ranches, tile can give an outdated bath a bright, modern lift.
We help you choose scale, color and layout to suit the room, and we sort out the substrate underneath, which is rarely perfect in an older house.
Radiant heat and tile
Boulder has a lot of in-floor radiant heating in custom and remodeled homes, and tile is its natural partner because it conducts and holds warmth well. If you are planning heated floors, tell us at the estimate so we can coordinate the layout and setting materials.
Even without radiant heat, a small electric mat in a bathroom makes winter mornings far more pleasant.
Material choices
Porcelain is the practical favorite, with options that mimic wood, concrete and stone. For real stone, slate and limestone bring natural variation, though they need sealing and gentle cleaners.
Our pages on porcelain tile and mosaic tile show a range of looks, and we bring samples to your home so you can judge them against your fixtures.
What tile costs in Boulder
Installed tile in Boulder typically ranges from about $13 to $27 per square foot, depending on tile size, pattern and the amount of prep. Small mosaics and intricate layouts take more time and cost more.
Demolition of old tile and subfloor repairs are often the swing factors, particularly in older homes. Your free in-home measure gives the exact number.
How we work from visit to cleanup
We arrive with the mobile design showroom, show you tile and grout colors, measure the room and leave you with a no-obligation quote. After approval, we move furniture, remove old flooring and prepare the substrate.
We set the tile, grout it, clean up and walk you through care. Within ten days we return to confirm everything is performing well.
Why people pick Floor Crafters for tile
Our company is family-owned and has been working in Colorado since 1988. We pay attention to the little things, like straight grout lines and tidy edges at doors, because those details are what you see every day.
If your tile project is part of a bigger bath update, we can talk about bathroom remodeling too, and you can check what other homeowners say on the reviews page.
Caring for tile in a dry, hard-water climate
Boulder tap water leaves mineral deposits, so squeegeeing shower floors and wiping bath tile prevents cloudy buildup. Use a pH-neutral cleaner and a soft mop on floors, and avoid vinegar on natural stone.
Seal grout and stone as recommended, and place a mat at the entry to trap grit. Winter salt can mark tile, so wipe it up quickly.
