OverviewWhy homeowners choose
Why homeowners choose
Large-Format (24×48 and up).
Large-format tile (24×48 and bigger, up to true 5×10 slab) collapses the visual seam count of a floor and approaches the look of poured stone or concrete. Fewer grout joints mean less maintenance, a calmer visual field, and a luxury read that smaller-format tile simply can't deliver.
Minimal grout lines for a modern, slab-like read.
Best for: Open-plan kitchens, hotels, lobbies. Pricing starts at $5.49 / sq ft, with full installed pricing typically in the $11.99 / sq ft installed range.

Three homes where this shines
Busy household with kids and pets
Two dogs, a toddler, and a finished basement playroom. You need a floor that survives juice spills, claw marks, and the occasional accident - and still looks great when guests come over. Large-Format (24×48 and up) handles all of that.
Refreshing the kitchen
You're not ready to renovate the whole house, but the kitchen is looking tired. Large-Format (24×48 and up) drops in over your existing subfloor in 1–3 days, and the room photographs ten years younger before the baseboards are even back on.
Value-conscious upgrade
Large-Format (24×48 and up) hits the sweet spot - better than the entry tier, without the premium-tier surcharge. Most of our repeat customers pick this band.

60×120 cm porcelain through the whole kitchen and living room. The house feels like a gallery. The grout lines almost disappear.

Yes, but…The questions everyone asks
The questions everyone asks
before they sign.
Will the tile lippage be visible at the seams?+
Not with a proper levelling-clip system. We use Raimondi RLS clips on every install over 18" - lippage is zero or invisible to the eye.
Do I need a special installer?+
Yes, and we have them. Large-format tile is a different craft - it needs more substrate prep, more hands during placement, and specialized vacuum-suction lifters.
Won't Large-Format (24×48 and up) feel cheap or look fake up close?+
Modern manufacturing has closed almost all of that gap. Premium SKUs in this tier use real-wood scans, multi-pass texture, and beveled edges - at conversational distance, most homeowners can't tell. Ask for our top three samples in this category and compare them on your own floor before deciding.
How disruptive is the install?+
Most Large-Format (24×48 and up) jobs finish in 1–3 days per floor. Whole-home installs average 4–7 working days. We sequence rooms so you always have a kitchen and at least one bathroom in service.
What if I don't love it once it's down?+
We bring up to 8 samples to your Free In-home Estimate so you can see the planks/tiles in your own light before we order material. After install, our workmanship warranty covers any defect for the life of the floor - no fine print.
