Scope

Three lines of work, written the way a spec reads.

Scope 1

Procurement and submittals

Furnish and install. We carry the material side of the package so the GC does not chase it: product submittals and samples, shop drawings and layout, mockups, material takeoff and procurement, and stored-materials handling on site.

  • Manufacturer and distributor relationships in the market where Daltile is headquartered
  • Lead-time management on imported porcelain and natural stone
  • Value engineering that keeps the manufacturer's system warranty intact
  • Submittal packages built to the spec section, returned on the GC's schedule
Scope 2

Installation

Division 09 Finishes09 30 00 Tiling09 30 13 Ceramic tiling09 30 33 Stone tiling09 63 40 Stone flooring

Installed to the TCNA Handbook method named in the spec, with ANSI A108 installation standards, A118 setting materials, and A137.1 tile standards. The floor is only as good as what is under it, so substrate preparation and flatness come first: self-leveling underlayment and crack-isolation membrane where the slab calls for them.

  • Waterproofing membranes, bonded sheet and liquid: Schluter, LATICRETE, and MAPEI systems
  • Large-format and gauged porcelain tile panels
  • Natural stone: granite, marble, limestone, travertine
  • Mosaics, quarry tile, and pavers
  • Epoxy grout for healthcare and food service
  • Movement joints and sealants per the Handbook
  • Wet areas: showers, locker rooms, natatoriums
  • Infection-control phasing in occupied healthcare
  • Night and phased work in occupied buildings

Scope 3

Maintenance, repair, and restoration

The record above is seventy years long because the work stays in service. Warranty service and callbacks are handled by the same crews that set the floor.

  • Repair and replacement of damaged tile and stone
  • Regrout and recaulk
  • Stone honing, polishing, and sealing
  • Restoration of existing tile and terrazzo transitions
  • Service agreements for facilities

One-year standard warranty. Extended warranties by system.

Modern Tile has provided my company excellent service, pricing and quality for over twenty years. I strive for value and performance with all of my associations and Modern Tile consistently delivers these attributes.

Clint Bunch and his team at Modern Tile have been a working partner with DBI for many years. Dee Brown, Inc risks our brand by not working with a tile installer that will put in a high quality product. Modern has performed their work in a professional manner, efficiently and effectively for DBI on many high profile projects.

Rob Barnes, Vice President, Dee Brown, Inc.

When it came time to completely re-tile our firm's office space, Modern Tile was our choice to perform the work. They are not just a tile installer, they have an eye toward design and how to get the best look and fit out of the unique tiles that we selected. I think they were pickier than us!
