What we do
Bathroom renovations are the headline. Tile and stone are the craft inside the work. Framing makes the layout right. Stone care keeps it looking new for the next decade.
01 · Full Washroom Renovation
We do the whole washroom — from a powder room to a full master suite. Same crew, same standard, same accountable name on every job. Everything is included: demolition, framing, plumbing and electrical coordination, Schluter Kerdi waterproofing, tile, vanity, fixtures, and finish carpentry. One quote, one timeline, one phone number for the whole job.
02 · Tile & Stone Installation
Tile is the craft. From Carrara marble to handmade Moroccan zellige, we install every kind of tile and stone with the patience the material demands. Surface prep is most of the job — we do it right, so your tile stays flat, even, and grout-line-true for decades. Backsplashes, floors, walls, showers, feature walls.
03 · Framing
Framing is the silent quality of a renovation — you don’t see it, but you feel it every time a wall stays true and a tile line stays straight. We frame for renovations, additions and structural changes with engineered consideration for what’s coming next.
04 · Stone Care & Restoration
Marble and natural stone need re-sealing every 18–24 months. Grout discolours, caulk pulls away from tubs, hairline chips show up. We come back, re-seal, re-grout, and refresh the work — yours or someone else’s — so it lasts another decade.
Specialty work
Tile and washroom renos are the headline. These are the niche installs we do alongside them — or as standalone projects when that’s what you need.
Ditra-Heat and Nuheat in-floor systems installed under tile or stone. Programmable thermostat. Pure comfort on cold mornings.
Curbless walk-ins with sealed-glass steam enclosure, properly vented and waterproofed. Specialty work most contractors won’t touch.
Subway, mosaic, large-format slab — clean cuts at outlets, mitred edges, perfect transitions to counter and cabinets.
Marble, natural stone, or porcelain slab fireplace surrounds — dry-fit, vein-matched, and installed for a clean focal point.
Geometric, hex, herringbone, or fully custom layouts. We design the pattern with you and dry-fit before mortar.
Pool decks, patios, exterior cladding. Frost-rated stone, proper substrate prep for Toronto winters.
How a quote actually works
Most renovation horror stories trace back to a quote that didn’t mean what it said. Hidden markups, vague allowances, prices that move once you’re committed. Blue Tile & Marblequotes don’t work that way.
Step 1
Every receipt is yours to see. We don’t hide what tile, fixtures, vanity, or stone actually cost — there’s no “allowance” trap where the line on your quote bears no relation to what got bought.
Step 2
We add a fixed markup on top of materials. It’s shown on the quote, not buried. You can ask exactly what it is. We’d rather lose a job over an honest number than win one with a hidden one.
Step 3
The labour line is what it costs to actually do the job — demo, framing, waterproofing, tile, finishing, and the trades we coordinate. Quoted up front, line-itemed, not changed on you mid-project.
Paying for the work
Deposit at signing
A deposit covers material orders. We don’t buy your tile until you’ve approved the quote and the deposit is in. Standard contractor practice — keeps everyone honest.
Credit card, e-transfer, or staged payments
Pay the rest on a credit card if speed matters. E-transfer if you’d rather. Or staged payments at agreed milestones. We figure out what works for your project.
Specific deposit and milestone amounts are quoted on a per-project basis — they depend on scope, material lead times, and timeline. Phil walks you through the numbers before you sign.
Why we’re different
Most renovation horror stories trace back to four or five shortcuts. Here’s what they are and how we avoid them on every job.
Common problem
Tile that lifts, cracks, or grows mould a year later
Cheap or skipped surface prep — uneven substrate, no waterproofing.
Our approach
Laser-checked floor levelling and full Schluter Kerdi membrane on every wet surface. We won't tile a floor we don't trust.
Common problem
Crooked grout lines and lippage you can feel with bare feet
Rushed layout, no dry-fit, no levelling clips on large-format tile.
Our approach
Every job dry-fits before it sets. 2 mm joints. Levelling system on anything 12" or bigger. We measure twice because tile doesn't move twice.
Common problem
Trades blaming each other when the schedule slips
Multiple contractors, no single owner of the timeline.
Our approach
One crew, one schedule, one phone number. Plumbing and electrical are sequenced — not coordinated by the homeowner mid-renovation.
Common problem
"Premium" jobs that look great on day one and fall apart
Cosmetic finish hiding shortcuts in framing, waterproofing, or substrate.
Our approach
Photos of every wet zone before tile goes on. You see exactly what's behind your wall before it's covered up.
Ready when you are
Free, no-pressure consultation. We come on-site, walk the space, and send a real quote within five business days.
