"Aquila handled 2,400 sq ft of white oak in our remodel. The seams are invisible, the transitions are perfect, and they left our house cleaner than they found it."

Tile Installation
Tile installed level, square, and built to last.
Porcelain, ceramic, and natural stone tile installation across the greater Austin area. Floor tile, shower walls and pans, backsplashes — installed to TCNA standards with proper substrate prep, dead-level grout lines, and a written workmanship warranty.
Benefits
Why this floor, why us.
- Proper substrate every time
- Cement backer board, Schluter Ditra uncoupling membrane, or properly cured slab — chosen for your specific application. Tile cracks if the substrate moves.
- Layout planned before setting
- We dry-lay full rooms, plan focal points, and balance cuts so your tile looks intentional from every angle.
- Level grout lines, plumb walls
- Every joint spaced, every tile checked. Showers built plumb. Floors set flat. No wavy grout lines, ever.
- Premium thinset & grout
- We use polymer-modified thinset and high-performance grout. Epoxy grout available for showers and high-stain areas.
- Waterproofing done right
- Showers built with Kerdi or RedGard — fully waterproofed before tile goes up. We don't trust grout alone to stop water.
- Stone sealed properly
- Natural stone gets sealed before grouting and again after. We hand off care instructions so it keeps looking new.
