02 / Our approach

The details matter.
So does the plan.

I’m Stan, the person behind Tile Works. I work on tile and bathroom projects across Chicago’s northern suburbs. Let’s start with what you want to change, then work through what your space needs.

  1. 01

    Tell me about your space

    Share your ideas, measurements, photos and preferred timing.

  2. 02

    Agree on the scope

    Discuss preparation, waterproofing, materials and the estimate before work begins.

  3. 03

    Prepare, install, finish

    Plan the layout, prepare the surface, install the tile and complete the finishing details.

03 / Close to home

Local work.
Personal attention.
