Get a free quote Call (437) 332-3023Tile installation in Hamilton is priced by substrate prep, tile size and pattern, and waterproofing. Jopie's own crew sets floor, shower and backsplash tile, and installs membrane waterproofing behind wet areas so the tile stays put.
Updated October 25, 2026Most tile problems — cracks, loose pieces, leaks — trace back to what's underneath. Jopie Construction Group is a Hamilton-based tiling contractor, and our own tile installers come to you anywhere in Hamilton, Halton, Peel and Niagara. We get the substrate flat, sound and waterproofed where it matters, then set tile with accurate layout and even spacing. Floors, walls and backsplashes for kitchens, bathrooms and commercial spaces.
What's included
Floor tiling
Porcelain, ceramic and stone for kitchens, bathrooms, entryways and commercial floors.
Walls & backsplashes
Kitchen and bathroom walls and feature backsplashes, cut clean around outlets and fixtures.
Bathroom & shower tiling
Properly waterproofed wet areas that won't leak or loosen over time.
Old tile removal & chipping
Stripping out old tile, thinset and mortar down to a sound substrate.
Substrate prep
Leveling and backer board so tile sits flat and bonds for good.
Grouting & sealing
Even grout lines, sealed to resist stains and moisture.
What determines the cost of tile installation in Hamilton?
Tile material is only part of the price. The substrate and layout decide the labour:
Substrate flatness
Large-format tile needs a flat floor. Levelling compound or subfloor work is often required.
Tile size and pattern
Large-format, herringbone and mosaic all cost more to set than a straight 12x24.
Waterproofing
Showers and wet walls need a continuous membrane system, not just grout.
Demolition
Removing old tile, mortar bed or glued flooring adds hours and disposal.
Trim and details
Niches, curbs, bullnose, Schluter profiles and transitions.
Heated floors
Cable or mat systems add electrical and self-levelling steps.

When tile is part of a bathroom or kitchen project
Tile is often the visible half of a larger job. If walls, plumbing or the floor need work first, we run it as one project. See bathroom renovation and kitchen renovation.

The layer you don't see decides how long the tile you do see lasts. We never skip prep or waterproofing to save a day — it's what keeps the tile flat and bonded for years.
Questions homeowners and owners ask
What determines the cost of tile installation in Hamilton?
Five variables:
- Substrate prep and flatness.
- Tile size and pattern.
- Waterproofing method.
- Demolition of old tile.
- Trim, niches and heated floor systems.
Can you waterproof a shower properly?
Yes. We install continuous membrane systems and flood-test where appropriate before tile.
Do you remove old tile before installing new?
Yes, and we assess what is beneath. Old floor tile or adhesive in pre-1980 homes can contain asbestos, so we test when needed.
What tile can you install?
Porcelain, ceramic, natural stone, large-format, mosaic and herringbone layouts.
How long does a bathroom tile job take?
Commonly one to two weeks including waterproofing cure, setting and grout.
Are you a local Hamilton tile installer?
Yes. Our own crew does the work. We do not subcontract tiling out.
