American Tile Solutions Group

Tile is not the last step. It is the part you look at.

You will look at that backsplash every morning. You will stand in that shower for years.

Nobody remembers the plumber, but everyone sees a crooked joint.

We are a tile contractor in Framingham.

We set kitchen backsplashes, floor-to-ceiling showers, stand-up showers, bathroom floors and large stone slabs, indoors and out.

Our installers bring more than 25 years of experience between them.

We work with suppliers and fabricators across Greater Boston, so we have seen most materials come through the door.

Buy the tile yourself, or call before you buy and we will talk it through.

Either way, the estimate is free.

What we set

Five kinds of job. One standard of line.

From a single backsplash to a floor that runs through a whole business.

Pick the one you have in mind.

How a layout works

Where the cuts land is the whole job.

Anyone can stick tile to a wall. Scroll through one wall and watch what the layout decides.

2 in. sliver Joint cuts the niche 7 in. 7 in. On the joints 62 in. 79 in. Wall leans in LINES UP
05Then set it, and grout it.

Example drawing, 12 x 12 in. tile.

  1. Measure before anything sticks.

    No wall in a house is truly square.

    A corner can drift, a wall can lean, and that gets decided before the first tile.

    62 in. wide, 79 in. tall, in this example

  2. Start at the corner, and see what happens.

    Five full tiles fit, then a 2 in. sliver runs up the far wall.

    The niche gets sliced by a joint. It all looks fine until it is grouted.

    The look of a rushed job

  3. Slide the whole layout.

    Move every joint over 5 in.

    Now four full tiles sit in the middle, with an even 7 in. cut against each wall.

    Same tile, same wall

  4. Put the niche on the joints.

    Raise the niche a little and its shelf and top edge land on grout lines.

    Nobody will know it took thought. That is the point.

    No slivers around the niche

  5. Then set it, and grout it.

    The floor pitches to the drain while the wall joints stay level.

    What you see every morning is straight lines.

5 out of 5 stars.

American Tile installed a beautiful, glass backsplash in our kitchen. We had purchased the tile separately without Rodolfo’s advice, and we made an error in our selection of tile and grout combination. Rodolfo found the best solution, did the job (with great difficulty), made it right and we ended up with a gorgeous backsplash for Christmas entertaining. I would definitely call him again for our next tile project.
