Porcelain tile is denser, harder, and more water-resistant than ceramic — making it ideal for high-traffic areas and wet spaces. Ceramic tile is more affordable and easier to cut, great for walls and lighter-use floors. RenoHouse installs both across Uxbridge.

Yes, RenoHouse installs electric radiant heating systems under tile flooring. Heated tile floors are especially popular in Uxbridge bathrooms and kitchens for comfort during cold winter months. The heating system adds minimal height to the floor.

A typical bathroom floor takes 1-2 days, a kitchen floor 2-3 days, and a full-home tile installation 5-10 days depending on size and complexity. This includes subfloor prep, waterproofing, tile setting, and grouting.

Absolutely. Waterproofing under bathroom tile prevents moisture from reaching the subfloor, which can cause rot, mold, and structural damage. RenoHouse uses premium waterproofing membranes like Schluter DITRA on every wet-area tile installation.

We install all tile patterns including straight lay, diagonal, herringbone, basketweave, running bond, pinwheel, and custom designs. Our installers have experience with large-format tiles, mosaics, and intricate natural stone patterns.

In some cases, tile can be installed over existing tile or vinyl if the surface is flat and structurally sound. However, we often recommend removing old flooring for the best results. RenoHouse will assess your situation during the free estimate.

Tile floors are low-maintenance — regular sweeping and mopping keep them looking great. We recommend resealing grout lines every 1-2 years to prevent staining. Natural stone tiles may need periodic sealing as well. RenoHouse provides care instructions after every installation.

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the top choice for rural homes where ground moisture is a concern — it's 100% waterproof, durable, and looks beautiful. For above-grade rooms, engineered hardwood with moisture-resistant backing is excellent. We always test subfloor moisture before installation and recommend appropriate vapor barriers.

Many vintage farmhouses have wide-plank pine, oak, or maple floors that can be beautifully restored through professional sanding and finishing. We assess board condition, replace any damaged planks with reclaimed wood matches, and apply durable polyurethane finishes that protect while showcasing the wood's character.

Electric in-floor heating mats work well under tile and stone in rural bathrooms and kitchens. For whole-home radiant heating, hydronic systems using a boiler and PEX tubing are more efficient. Both systems provide comfortable, even heat — especially appreciated in older rural homes where drafty floors are common.
