Tile, Grout & Regrout Work in Aventura, FL

Home › Tile Installation › Aventura

Gold Hands offers tile installation in Aventura, FL — new floors, tub surrounds, walk-in showers with proper waterproofing, kitchen backsplashes and grout work for homes and condos across Miami-Dade County. Pricing is per project, never a guess over the phone: you text or WhatsApp photos and measurements, and we send back a free written estimate based on what we see.

A typical tile job in Aventura involves more prep than people expect. Old tile has to come up, the thinset underneath gets ground down, low spots get leveled, and in wet areas a waterproofing membrane goes on before any tile does. That prep is what keeps a floor from cracking and a shower from leaking behind the wall, so we price it openly instead of hiding it inside a single number.

You can get an estimate without waiting for a visit. Send photos and rough measurements to (786) 788-8714 by text or WhatsApp. Useful shots: the full room, the floor at a low angle so we can see any dips, the base of the walls, and anything you suspect is water-damaged. Mention whether it is a house or a condo. Spanish-speaking staff are available for calls and messages.

Condo tower tile projects, from approval to the service elevator

Aventura is mostly high-rise condominium living along Biscayne Boulevard and the Intracoastal, with single-family houses and lower-rise condos in Ojus and Skylake just to the west.

Large-format porcelain is a popular choice for high-rise living areas in Aventura, and it is also unforgiving. Tower slabs are rarely perfectly flat, so we check them with a long straightedge and level low spots before setting. That step is easy to skip and expensive to regret, because an uneven slab leads to lippage, where one tile edge sits higher than the next and catches feet and furniture.

Water shutoffs in towers are often controlled by building maintenance rather than by you, so any work near a toilet or shower valve is coordinated with them in advance. We also plan material deliveries around the association's rules: tile cartons are heavy, and some buildings limit how much can travel in the service elevator at once or which days deliveries are allowed.

What tile work in Aventura can include

Here is the work we take on, from a single replaced tile to a full floor or shower, in porcelain, ceramic and natural stone.

Shower pans, curbs, niches and benches built and waterproofed before tiling
Porcelain and ceramic floor tile, including wood-look plank and large-format sizes
Natural stone such as marble and travertine, sealed where the stone calls for it
Kitchen and bar backsplashes, with clean cutouts around outlets and window trim
Bathroom wall tile, tub surrounds and wainscot-height accent walls
Grout removal and regrouting, with mildew-resistant or epoxy grout options
Replacement of cracked, loose or hollow-sounding tiles, matched where the tile is still available
Silicone caulk at changes of plane: tub edges, inside corners and countertop joints

Choosing and installing tile for a coastal home

Balcony tile in coastal Aventura buildings is its own category. Many associations control balcony finishes, since the balcony is part of the building's structure and its waterproofing. Before any work on a balcony we ask for the association's rules in writing. Some allow only specific tile, and some require that a waterproofing system be approved before tile goes down, so the paperwork can set the start date.

Inside, coastal homes benefit from lighter, cooler floors, and larger porcelain is a common choice because sand sweeps off it easily. We set entry and patio-door areas with particular care for drainage and transitions, because that is where water and sand come in first, and we finish thresholds so sliding doors and screens still close cleanly over the new floor without scraping.

How we take a tile job from estimate to walkthrough

Estimate from photos: you text or WhatsApp (786) 788-8714 with pictures of the area and rough measurements. We review them and send a free per-project estimate, with prep, waterproofing and tile setting listed separately.
Scope and schedule in writing: once you approve, we confirm the tile, grout color, layout and start date in writing, along with who supplies which materials and what happens if we find damage underneath.
Permits where required: most tile replacement stays on the finish surfaces. If the job turns into moving plumbing or structural work, we tell you before quoting, and that part goes through our general contractor partner and the City of Aventura building department.
The work: we protect floors and furniture, remove the old tile, repair and level the surface, waterproof wet areas, then set tile on a planned layout, grout it, and caulk every change of plane.
Final walkthrough: we walk the finished area with you, check for loose or uneven tiles, clean up, and send a photo report that includes the waterproofing stage before it was covered.

Timing: what makes tile work short or long

What we find under the old tile also matters. A sound slab or dry backer board lets us move straight to new tile. A cracked slab, soft drywall, a rotted subfloor or a leaking valve adds steps, and we stop to show you before continuing. In condos, association approval and elevator booking can set the start date, so it helps to begin that paperwork early.

Tile Installation in Aventura — questions we get asked

Does my condo association need to approve tile work?

Many associations require approval before any flooring or bathroom work, along with a certificate of insurance, set working hours and a reserved service elevator. Many also require sound-rated underlayment under new hard floors in units above others. Ask management for the renovation rules early and send them to us; we build their requirements into the scope and schedule so the work is not stopped halfway.

Do I need a permit to replace tile in Aventura?

Replacing tile on existing floors and walls generally stays on the finish side. Moving a drain, relocating a shower valve, changing a layout or repairing structure is different: that work needs a building permit from the City of Aventura building department. Some building departments also look at shower pan rebuilds, so we check what applies to your address and tell you before quoting, never after the work has started.

Can you regrout my shower instead of replacing the tile?

Often, yes. If the tiles are firmly attached and the wall behind them is dry and solid, we can remove the old grout, regrout and recaulk the corners and tub line, which refreshes the shower without demolition. If tiles sound hollow or the wall gives when pressed, regrouting only hides the problem, and we will tell you that from your photos.

Do you come out to measure before giving an estimate?

Estimates are based on the photos and measurements you send, which is usually enough for a clear price. Take a wide picture of the space, close-ups of any damage, and the length and width of each area. If something cannot be judged from photos, such as a floor that may sit on a damaged subfloor, we tell you, and a paid site visit can be arranged.

Can I stay in my home while you replace the tile?

Usually, yes. We work room by room where the layout allows, seal off the work area with plastic and cover vents to limit dust. Demolition is the loud, dusty part and comes first. A freshly set floor cannot be walked on until it cures, so we plan paths through the house with you, and if your only bathroom is being redone we discuss the timing in advance.
