Seeking tile installer with experience in cement tiles (unfinished)

Hi everyone,

We would like to install cement tiles (unfinished) on a bathroom floor and are searching for reasonably priced tile installers who have experience in this area. There seem to be a lot of specifics in terms of tile support (given the heavier weight), etc. This would be a small room (6′ x 12′) and we would like to have basic subway tiles on 3 of the walls to about 4 feet high. The first quote we received blows our budget – it would be great to understand market prices better.

Many thanks! CJ

At a friend’s recommendation, we used Rocco at Erredue Porcelain & Marble. Phone/text is the best way to connect with him at (347) 309 0946. Did my bathroom and entry and a friend’s tile as well. Excellent work. Note: he does not do anything else like painting. He strictly does tile

Hi CJ, Whom did you end up using? We need the same and are having a hard time finding experienced cement tile installers. Thank you!
