Tile work is the most visible measure of craftsmanship in any renovation. Poorly laid tile reveals itself immediately — in grout lines that wander, lippage between tiles, grout that cracks within a year, and patterns that don't align at corners. Quality tile work is invisible. You notice only the beauty.
32 Build's tile crews are specialists. We've installed custom shower tile, large-format porcelain floors, natural marble, heated bathroom floors, subway tile, and decorative mosaic work in hundreds of Chicago homes, condos, and commercial spaces.
We handle the complete tile scope: waterproofing and Schluter systems, custom tile layouts, heated floor systems, grout selection, and sealers. One crew, one standard of quality throughout.

Our Process
Tile Consultation
We discuss pattern, size, grout color, and layout before any work begins. We review your tile selections and flag potential issues.
Waterproofing
Proper waterproofing is installed before any tile goes up. We use Schluter KERDI and custom systems for all wet areas.
Layout & Setting
Tiles are dry-laid for pattern review before setting. Every tile is set to exact tolerances for perfectly consistent grout joints.
Grout & Seal
Grout is selected and applied for coverage and color consistency. Stone and grout is sealed on completion.
After the renovation
Keep it looking like day one.
