What tile projects cover
Tile work in the Denver metro includes floors, walls, shower surrounds, and backsplashes. Wet areas need a defined waterproofing approach behind or under the finish. A municipally licensed Denver general contractor coordinates tile packages and licensed specialty trades when plumbing or structural substrates change. Cost is project-specific and depends on area, tile size, pattern, and wet-area detailing.
text
Substrates and wet areas
Flat, stable substrates reduce lippage and cracks. Showers need continuous waterproofing details at corners, niches, and curbs. Large-format tile needs tighter flatness tolerances.
text
Permits and who coordinates the work
Cosmetic tile finishes generally do not need a City and County of Denver building permit. Changing plumbing, openings, or structure typically does. Cities and counties license general contractors. Colorado has no statewide general contractor license. Autotelic acts as a municipally licensed Denver general contractor and coordinates licensed specialty trades when regulated work is included.
text
What buyers should decide early
Tile size and finish, layout pattern, grout color, shower niche needs, and whether heated floors are included.
FAQ
Common questions
Do tile installs need a Denver permit?
Usually not for finish-only tile. Plumbing or structural changes typically need CPD permits.
Who handles permits and licensing when plumbing changes?
A municipally licensed Denver general contractor coordinates the project and licensed specialty trades. Colorado has no statewide general contractor license.
Why does shower waterproofing matter?
Tile and grout are not the waterproof layer. Membranes and details keep water out of framing.
Can large-format tile go over old floors?
Only if the substrate is flat and stable enough. Many projects need prep or overlay boards.
What information helps define scope?
Room photos, approximate square footage, wet-area needs, tile preferences, and city or county.
