TILE & BACKSPLASHES

Natural stone tile

Install natural stone tile with attention to variation, edge details and the intended maintenance routine. Review physical pieces and approve the layout before setting a prominent stone surface.

START WITH THE DETAILS

What goes into
the work.

Measure each tiled surface. Note tile size, pattern, corners, openings, edges and wet areas; waterproofing is a separate assembly.

Typical scope to confirm

  • Review stone samples and variation
  • Assess substrate and setting-system compatibility
  • Plan layout, grout and sealing requirements

Make it specific to your project.

Enter the amount of work and choose the details you know. Your choices follow you into the Project Builder.

LOW / MIDDLE / HIGH REFERENCE

Low$10per sq ft
Middle$30per sq ft
High$50per sq ft

Low and high are published reference endpoints. Middle is their arithmetic midpoint, not a quoted average, product tier or firm price.

Match the reference scope first
  • Confirm Tile before applying this reference to your quantity. The reference is natural stone tile, not another tile material.

The figures above remain the source reference. They do not price these selections or a complete installed project.

A planning reference for this service only. Selections, local labor, access, quantities and existing conditions need Coastal’s review. Do not add overlapping whole-project and component ranges.

KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT

From first idea to finished work.

  1. Plan the scope

    Review stone thickness, weight, substrate stiffness and care needs.

  2. Prepare and approve

    Check the base, flatten where needed and confirm wet-area details if relevant.

  3. Complete the work

    Lay out and install the tile, grout and movement joints.

  4. Review and close out

    Allow specified cure time, inspect alignment and review cleaning.

PERMIT PLANNING

Usually cosmetic work

Usually a finish-only scope when the structure, room use and utilities stay unchanged. This is a starting classification, not an address-specific exemption; confirm any related regulated work before starting.

  • Opening walls or changing structural support
  • Moving or adding wiring, plumbing or ventilation
  • Historic exterior restrictions or regulated-material removal

ENGINEERING & DESIGN

Confirm design requirements

Review the load path, existing supports and proposed changes before work. An engineer may be needed for nonstandard spans, added loads, damage or a reviewer-requested design; a permit alone does not mean every detail needs engineering.

  • Load-bearing changes or uncertain framing
  • Nonstandard spans, concentrated loads or damaged supports
  • Soil, foundation or retaining conditions beyond an approved design

Confirm requirements with the city or county responsible for the property before work begins. The address, exact scope and adopted code determine the final requirements.
