Tile installation · Easton, PA
Easton is one of the most distinctive communities in the Lehigh Valley. College Hill, home to Lafayette College, holds one of the region's largest collections of Victorian and Georgian Revival homes, most built between 1830 and 1940, while downtown Easton carries its own mix of historic rowhomes and a genuine ongoing revitalization. At Atlas Design & Build, we work with homeowners across Easton on custom tile installation for bathrooms, kitchens and floors, as a standalone project or as part of a larger remodel. We live in Easton and manage every project directly.
Not every tile job needs a demolition crew or a new floor plan. If your bathroom needs a new shower surround, your kitchen needs a backsplash or your entryway needs a floor that holds up to daily traffic, we take that on as a standalone project. We handle the substrate prep, waterproofing and layout with the same care we bring to a full remodel, scaled to the size of the job.
Our scope
Every tile project starts with a conversation about the space, the traffic it sees and the look you are after. From there we handle layout, substrate prep, waterproofing and installation, start to finish.
Full height showers, tub surrounds, niches and floor tile, waterproofed and installed to hold up under daily use.
Custom pattern layouts, mosaic and natural stone backsplashes installed cleanly around cabinets, outlets and appliances.
Porcelain, ceramic and natural stone floors set level and true, with attention to transitions and grout lines.
Inlays, borders, herringbone, basketweave and mosaic detail work for accent walls, floors and shower niches.
Marble, travertine and specialty materials handled with the same standard of prep and installation as any full remodel.
Durable floor tile for the rooms that take the most daily wear.
We work as a tile contractor on its own merits, not only as part of a kitchen or bathroom renovation.
The work that determines whether tile holds up for twenty years or fails in five, done right from the start.
Older construction
A significant share of Easton's housing stock predates modern wiring and plumbing standards. College Hill's Residential Historic District holds some of the largest homes in the city, most built between 1830 and 1940, and downtown Easton has its own historic district as well. Knob and tube electrical, galvanized plumbing, lath and plaster walls and settling foundations are common in homes of this age. These are not obstacles. They are part of what makes Easton's older homes worth renovating carefully. We are EPA Lead Safe certified, which is required for any home built before 1978. We plan for the realities of older construction rather than being surprised by them mid-project.
Homes within College Hill's historic district may carry additional review requirements for exterior changes. For tile projects this rarely affects the interior work, but if your project touches windows, exterior openings or additions, we factor that review process into the timeline from the start.
Our approach
We live in Easton. That is not a marketing line, it is where we call home, which means we are not learning this community from the outside. We know College Hill's character, downtown's mix of older and revitalized properties and what tile work needs to hold up in a home of this age.
Most of the homeowners we work with in Easton are not doing a quick refresh. They are making a long-term investment in a home they plan to stay in. They want tile work that is planned with intention, installed with care and managed without the chaos that too many remodeling projects involve. That is what we build.
