Southeast Michigan's trusted tile installation team
Tile is the most permanent floor you can put in a home - and the easiest one to install badly. A great tile job depends 80% on subfloor prep, mortar coverage, and layout, and only 20% on the tile itself. FSM | Flooring & Interiors uses certified tile setters, large-format-rated mortars, and uncoupling membranes (Schluter Ditra and Kerdi) on every wet-area install so your tile lasts as long as the house.
We bring tile samples from Daltile, MSI, and Emser directly to your Southeast Michigan home so you can see color and veining under your own lighting, then supply and install ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, glass, and mosaic tile for floors, showers, backsplashes, and fireplaces. Looking specifically for wall tile or mosaic accents? Those have their own dedicated pages.
Where tile is the right choice
Tile is unmatched in any room that sees water, heat, or heavy traffic. Bathrooms, mudrooms, laundry rooms, entryways, sunrooms, and kitchens all benefit from a properly installed tile floor.
- Bathrooms and showers - 100% waterproof when installed with a proper membrane system
- Kitchens - heat-resistant, stain-resistant, and easy to wipe clean
- Entryways and mudrooms - handles Michigan road salt, grit, and wet boots without complaint
- Heated floors - tile is the best conductor for radiant in-floor heating
- Commercial spaces - meets slip-resistance and durability codes for restaurants and retail
Special Financing Available*
*Subject to credit approval. Minimum monthly payments required. See design consultant for details.
View financing optionsHow we install tile that lasts
We start with a full subfloor inspection - any deflection, moisture, or unevenness gets fixed before a single tile is set (our floor demolition & prep crew handles this on older Southeast Michigan homes). We use modified thinset mortars rated for the tile size, back-butter large-format tiles for full coverage, and use leveling clips on planks and large rectangles to eliminate lippage. Showers are built with Schluter Kerdi or RedGard waterproofing, sloped pre-pitch mortar beds, and properly bonded curbs.
Every install ends with sealed grout (or epoxy grout where requested) and a final detail walk before we hand the keys back. Prefer real stone instead of porcelain? See our natural stone tile page.

Tile Flooring - frequently asked questions
Most rooms take 2-3 days: day one for demo and prep, day two for setting tile, day three for grouting and sealing. Showers and large-format installs add another day or two.
On plywood subfloors and any heated floor, yes - it prevents cracked tile and grout from substrate movement. On concrete slabs it's optional, but we still recommend it in wet areas.
Sometimes - if the existing tile is solidly bonded, level, and the floor height won't cause door clearance issues. Otherwise we remove the old tile and start with a flat subfloor, part of our floor demolition & prep service.
Standard cement grout will eventually stain if not sealed. We seal all grout on install day, and we offer epoxy grout (stain-proof, no sealing needed) as an upgrade in kitchens and showers.
