Built for New Construction
Finishing Tile for Kanata's Newer Homes
Kanata is one of Ottawa’s major newer-build growth suburbs, and a lot of our work here is finishing tile in homes that are only a few years old – primary ensuites with large-format porcelain, tiled kitchen backsplashes, and basement development where a client wants a proper tiled bathroom or wet bar floor rather than a builder-grade finish. Because Ottawa’s winters are cold and radiant in-floor heating under bathroom tile is popular in newer builds, we can install heating cable or mat systems as part of the same job when a client wants a warm floor underfoot.
Growth Suburb, Modern Tiling
New Construction Focus
Kanata is one of Ottawa's major newer-build growth suburbs, so most of the tile work we do here involves fresh construction rather than repairing decades-old grout.
Upgraded Ensuites
New homes in Kanata are commonly built with larger, more open primary ensuites, and buyers increasingly want the builder-standard tile upgraded to large-format porcelain, a properly waterproofed curbless shower, or a tiled feature wall.
Residential Tiling Services
Bathrooms, Kitchens, Basements
We handle bathroom and ensuite tile installation, kitchen backsplashes, and basement floor tile for Kanata homeowners, using cementitious backer board and membrane waterproofing in every wet area so the finished surface holds up over time.
Clear Scope Before Starting
Whether you're upgrading a single ensuite or finishing an entire basement, we scope the job with a clear, written quote before starting.
Efficient Work in Newer Homes
Consistent Layouts
Because so much of Kanata was built in the last two to three decades, the plumbing rough-ins, ensuite footprints, and open-concept layouts tend to be more consistent than in older parts of Ottawa.
Clean, Efficient Finish
That familiarity lets us move efficiently through a new-construction tiling job, thin-set application, tile layout, sanded or unsanded grout depending on joint width, and a clean final finish, without the surprises that older homes can bring.
Typical Tiling Costs for Kanata Homes
These are general Ottawa-area price ranges for the ensuite, kitchen, and basement tile work common in Kanata's newer homes; your exact cost depends on tile size, layout, and waterproofing needs, and we confirm it in a free written quote after seeing the project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you install tile in new-build Kanata homes, not just renovations?
Yes. A large share of our Kanata work is in newer homes – finishing an ensuite, backsplash, or basement floor to a higher standard than the builder-grade tile that came with the house.
Can you add radiant in-floor heating under a Kanata bathroom floor?
Yes, we can install electric in-floor heating under new tile as part of the same project, which is a popular addition given how cold Ottawa winters get.
Do I need a permit to retile my Kanata bathroom?
Cosmetic, like-for-like retiling does not require a City of Ottawa building permit as long as no plumbing, electrical, or walls are being moved. A permit is needed if the layout changes or plumbing/electrical is relocated.
What tile sizes work well in newer Kanata ensuites?
Large-format porcelain tile is common in newer Kanata builds and suits the bigger, more open ensuite layouts typical of these homes – we can advise on sizing during your quote.
