M-F Specialty Home Remodeling is seeking an experienced tile setter for residential bathroom and kitchen remodeling projects. We're looking for someone who takes pride in precise layouts, clean cuts, consistent grout lines, and professional finished results. Tile installation is the primary focus of this role. Candidates must also have practical construction knowledge and be willing to assist our remodeling crew when tile work is not scheduled. Applicants should be able to complete tile projects independently, from surface preparation and waterproofing through installation, grouting, caulking, and final cleanup. Hands-on experience preparing surfaces and installing shower systems such as Schluter-KERDI and wedi is required. What you'll do Install ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, mosaic, and large-format tile on shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen backsplashes, and other residential surfaces. Inspect substrates for flatness, stability, moisture damage, and suitability before installation, and communicate any conditions that need correction. Prepare surfaces through appropriate patching, flattening, leveling, and installation of backer boards, underlayment, and waterproofing systems. Install Schluter-KERDI, wedi, and comparable tile preparation and shower waterproofing systems according to the applicable manufacturer's instructions. Install shower pans, curbs, niches, benches, and compatible drain assemblies, properly waterproofing seams, corners, fasteners, and penetrations. Maintain proper shower slopes and complete required waterproofing checks and flood testing before tile installation. Plan balanced tile layouts with consistent alignment, clean transitions, and carefully placed cuts. Select and properly use mortars, adhesives, grout, sealants, and installation accessories suited to the tile, substrate, and application. Use appropriate troweling and setting techniques to achieve proper coverage and minimize lippage. Make accurate cuts around plumbing fixtures, outlets, niches, corners, and other obstacles. Install tile edging, trim profiles, thresholds, and transitions. Complete grouting, movement joints, caulking, and sealing where appropriate. Assist the remodeling crew when not setting tile, including demolition, material handling, blocking, basic framing, subfloor repairs, drywall, carpentry, and job-site preparation within your abilities. Protect surrounding finishes, maintain dust control, and leave the work area clean. Communicate material needs, progress, and unexpected conditions promptly. What we're looking for Proven professional tile-setting experience, especially in residential bathrooms, showers, and kitchens. Excellent attention to detail and consistently clean finish work. Hands-on experience with Schluter-KERDI and wedi systems, including surface preparation, shower components, and waterproofing details. Strong knowledge of substrate preparation, shower waterproofing, mortar selection, tile layout, and installation techniques. General construction and residential remodeling knowledge, with the ability and willingness to help the crew outside of tile installation. Ability to complete tile installations independently and coordinate with other workers and trades. Experience with porcelain, ceramic, mosaics, and large-format tile; natural stone experience is a plus. Ability to read measurements, layouts, and manufacturer instructions. Safe, confident use of wet saws, tile cutters, grinders, and common construction tools. Reliable transportation to job sites and professional communication with homeowners and coworkers. Ability to provide photos of completed tile projects and explain the work you personally
