In Miami, Gold Hands installs tile across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties — floors, walls, shower surrounds and kitchen backsplashes in porcelain, ceramic or natural stone, including large-format tile. The quote covers prep, leveling and waterproofing, not just setting tile, and smaller jobs like regrouting, resealing and replacing cracked tiles are welcome too.
Permitted work — moving plumbing or electrical, layout and structural changes — is permitted and performed under our Florida-licensed general contractor partner. Gold Hands crews are insured and bonded.

Tile Installation in Miami, FL — FAQ
Do you offer tile installation in Miami?
Yes — across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, including Aventura, Bal Harbour, Coconut Creek, Coral Gables, Coral Springs, Coral Terrace, Country Club, Cutler Bay, Dania Beach, Davie, Deerfield Beach, Doral and every area listed below.
What does tile installation cost?
It depends on the area, the tile (large-format and natural stone take longer), the pattern and how much prep the floor or wall needs. Send photos and the square footage and we quote per project, prep and waterproofing included. Estimates are free by phone or from photos.
Can you tile over existing tile?
Sometimes, if the old tile is flat, solidly bonded and the extra height works at doors and transitions. In showers and on hollow-sounding floors we remove it. We check from your photos and tell you before quoting.
Do you waterproof showers before tiling?
Yes. Shower walls, floors and benches get a waterproofing membrane before tile goes on — the tile and grout are not the waterproof layer. In South Florida humidity that step decides whether a shower lasts.
Do you do small tile repairs?
Yes: a few cracked tiles, regrouting a shower, resealing natural stone, re-caulking tub and shower joints. Small jobs are booked like any handyman visit.
