Local Experience

Three Decades of Detail-Focused Tile Work in Northern Idaho

Tile work is one of those areas where quality shows immediately. Uneven lines, bad cuts, loose pieces, and sloppy finishing can ruin the entire look of a kitchen or bathroom. Not every contractor enjoys doing tile, we do. It's the kind of work that rewards patience, skill, and a good eye, and it's an area where 30+ years of experience really shows.

Chuck and Norm Kile have tiled hundreds of kitchens and bathrooms across Coeur d'Alene, Hayden, and Post Falls. We know which tile is easy to work with and which isn't, which substrates need extra attention, and which grout colors actually stay looking clean.

If you want your backsplash, shower, bathroom floor, or fireplace surround done neatly and professionally, Kile Construction is a strong choice, whether it's a standalone tile job or part of a larger remodel.

FAQ

Tile Installation Questions

Straight answers to what homeowners ask most before starting a tile project.

How long does tile installation take?
A typical kitchen backsplash takes 1–3 days. A full shower surround usually runs 3–5 days including waterproofing and grout cure time. Larger floors and whole-bathroom tile packages take longer depending on layout and prep.
Do you waterproof showers before tiling?
Yes, always. We use proper waterproofing membranes behind shower tile so the substrate stays dry and the installation lasts. Cutting corners on waterproofing is the main reason bad shower tile fails within a few years.
Can you help pick out tile?
Yes. We can point you to local showrooms, help you avoid tile that's difficult to work with, and give feedback on layout, grout color, and trim pieces so the finished look matches what you had in mind.
Can you tile over existing tile or do you need to demo first?
In most cases, a proper installation means removing the old tile and preparing a fresh substrate. Tiling over old tile can work in specific situations but is usually not the best long-term choice, we'll walk through the options honestly.
Do you do small tile repairs?
Sometimes, it depends on the scope and whether replacement tile is still available. We'll give you an honest read on whether a repair will look right or whether it makes more sense to redo the area.
What's the first step to get started?
Call (208) 660-2470 or request a meeting online. We'll schedule a free consultation, look at the space, and follow up with a written estimate.
