Our Process

1

Tile Design Consultation

We measure your space, discuss patterns and layouts, review tile samples, and plan the installation approach including waterproofing requirements.

2

Surface Preparation

Existing surfaces are prepared — old tile removed, backer board installed, waterproofing membranes applied in wet areas, and surfaces leveled.

3

Tile Installation

Tile is laid according to the approved layout with consistent spacing, level surfaces, and precise cuts around fixtures. Mortar is allowed to cure before grouting.

4

Grouting & Sealing

Grout is applied, cleaned, and sealed. Caulk joints are completed at transitions. A final inspection ensures every tile is properly set and every grout line is clean.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does tile installation cost in Boise?

Tile installation in Boise ranges from $10-$25 per square foot including labor and materials. Natural stone costs more ($15-$35/sq ft). Backsplash tile runs $1,500-$3,500 for a typical kitchen.

What size tile is best for bathroom floors?

We recommend large-format tiles (12x24 or larger) for bathroom floors — fewer grout lines mean less maintenance and a cleaner look. For shower floors, smaller mosaic tiles (2x2 or hexagon) provide better drainage slope and grip.

How long does tile installation take?

A bathroom floor and shower tile project takes 3-5 days. A kitchen backsplash takes 1-2 days. Larger projects (multiple rooms, complex patterns) may take 1-2 weeks. Mortar and grout cure times factor into the schedule.

Tile Installation in Boise Neighborhoods

We provide tile installation services throughout Boise, including these neighborhoods and surrounding areas.

North EndEast EndSoutheast BoiseWest BoiseSouthwest BoiseDowntown BoiseBoise BenchHarris RanchHidden SpringsColumbia VillageWarm SpringsBarber Valley

Boise's housing stock spans a century of architectural styles. The North End features 1920s–1950s Craftsman bungalows with original hardwood floors, single-pane windows, and compact galley kitchens that benefit from thoughtful modernization. The Bench and Vista neighborhoods are dominated by mid-century ranches with solid bones but outdated kitchens, bathrooms, and electrical systems. Harris Ranch and Southeast Boise feature modern construction from the 2000s onward — builder-grade finishes that homeowners upgrade within 5–10 years of purchase. Each era presents distinct remodeling opportunities and challenges that our crews encounter daily.

What Boise Clients Say

Iron Crest completely transformed our 1940s North End kitchen. They navigated the quirks of our old house — knob-and-tube wiring, plaster walls, uneven floors — and delivered a kitchen that feels both modern and true to the home's character.

Sarah M., North End | Kitchen Remodeling

We had three contractors bid on our master bathroom remodel. Iron Crest was the only one who identified the galvanized drain lines behind the walls and included replacement in their scope. No surprises during construction.

David & Lisa R., Southeast Boise | Bathroom Remodeling

Our Bench ranch needed everything — kitchen, both bathrooms, flooring, paint. Iron Crest managed the whole project as a single scope with one timeline and one point of contact. Finished on schedule and on budget.
