About tile contractors in Iowa City
Tile contractors install ceramic, porcelain and stone tile on floors, showers and backsplashes. Tile setters prepare substrates, install waterproofing and backer board, set floor and wall tile, build shower pans and niches, grout and seal, and repair cracked or loose tile.
Typical cost: $1,200–$6,500 for a backsplash to a tiled shower. See the full cost guide
Typical U.S. ranges from industry sources (2024–25); not EdgeLocal data. Your quote will vary with scope, materials and location.
Questions to ask this contractor
- Ask about waterproofing systems: Showers need a membrane or liner, not just backer board.
- Check flatness standards: Large tile needs a flat substrate to prevent lippage.
- Review previous showers: Look for straight grout lines and clean cuts.
