Our Tile & Grout Basics Workshop provides a solid foundation in the core principles of tile installation.
Participants will learn the “why” and “how” behind professional tilework — from surface preparation and layout to cutting, thinset application, and grouting.

This workshop demystifies the materials, tools, and techniques that make the difference between an amateur job and a professional finish.

What's Covered
✅The differences between tile types (ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, glass)
✅Identify the right grout and thinset for your needs
✅Proper mixing and application techniques for grout and thinset
✅How to cut tile using dustless tile saws
✅How to use essential tools like trowels and floats

Led by licensed, experienced contractors, this workshop offers a blend of demonstration and hands-on learning using real materials and professional-grade equipment.
