Tile flooring is one of the strongest flooring choices for Jacksonville homes because it handles humidity, moisture, sand, pets, and heavy daily traffic.
Gator Carpet and Tile helps homeowners choose tile flooring that matches their style, budget, and performance needs.
Whether you need tile for a bathroom, kitchen, living area, rental property, or commercial space, our team can help you select and install the right product.
Tile is a smart choice for areas that need durability, moisture resistance, and easy cleaning.
Tile handles spills, cooking traffic, pets, and everyday messes.
Moisture-resistant tile is ideal for showers, bathroom floors, and wet areas.
Large-format tile and wood-look tile are popular for open Florida floor plans.
Durable tile works well in offices, retail spaces, lobbies, and high-traffic areas.
Our tile prices are all-in: the tile, the labor and standard prep in one number per square foot. No surprises added after we start.
Tearing out the old floor and leveling an uneven slab are priced separately, and we tell you about them at the measure, not halfway through the job. There is a $500 job minimum.

Most tile problems come from rushed prep or bad layout. Here is how our crew handles a tile job from start to finish.
We take up the old floor, check the slab for dips and cracks, and level or add a crack-isolation membrane where the floor needs it. Large tile needs a flat floor to stay put.
Before anything is set, we plan where the lines run and where the cuts land, so you do not end up with thin slivers at a doorway or a crooked line down a hallway.
Each tile is set in thinset and checked for level and spacing as we go. Bigger tile takes more care, which is why it costs more per square foot.
Once the thinset has set up, we grout, clean the haze off the tile and clean up the work area before we leave.
The old tile had failed with age and water was getting behind the wall. We tore it out, replaced the water-damaged wallboard, and installed a new tile surround with a recessed niche.

Kitchen floors take more abuse than any other room: spills, dropped pans, wet feet, pets and constant traffic. Tile handles all of it, which is why kitchen tile installation is so popular around Jacksonville.
Porcelain is a strong pick for kitchens because it is dense and holds up to water. Wood-look and large-format tile are popular when the kitchen opens into the living room and you want one floor running through.
A typical kitchen tile floor takes 2 to 4 days depending on size, and a 150 sq ft kitchen usually runs $1,200–$2,700 installed. You get the exact number in writing at the free measure.

Installed tile in Jacksonville runs about $8 to $12 per square foot for standard ceramic or porcelain, $12 to $18 for large-format and wood-look tile, and $18 to $25 for complex layouts like herringbone. That includes material, labor and standard prep. Removing the old floor and leveling are priced separately, and there is a $500 job minimum.
A typical bathroom floor takes 1 to 2 days. A kitchen or main living area takes 2 to 4 days depending on size. Large-format tile and detailed layouts can take longer because each stage needs time to set before the next one starts.
