Professional Tile & Flooring in Canton
Expert Installation Services for Canton Homes & Businesses
First Choice Tile LLC is a Marietta, GA tile and flooring contractor serving Canton (the Cherokee County seat, one county north of Cobb). Canton work has been on our books since 2019, most recently June 2025: full-room tile installations and tile repair. Canton is a young housing market: roughly two out of three homes inside the city limits went up after 2000, so the estimate is usually written around a 2000s production floor. A Canton address in ZIP 30114 or 30115 often sits outside the city limits, in unincorporated subdivisions such as BridgeMill and Hickory Flat, so permits, when needed, go through Cherokee County rather than City Hall.
What we find in Canton homes
The Canton kitchens and baths we open were typically tiled by the builder in the 2000s: 12x12 ceramic set straight onto plywood or OSB with no uncoupling membrane, and grout failing at the tub and shower joints. Those floors were finished to the flatness that size allows, about 1/4 inch over 10 feet, but any tile with an edge over 15 inches calls for 1/8 inch over 10 feet, so a 12x24 or 24x48 replacement usually gets a self-leveling pour first rather than mortar built up past its rating. Lippage is the tell when that step is skipped. Canton lots are hilly, so many houses have basements, and a basement slab gets a moisture test before LVP or tile goes down.

Our Services in Canton
Tile installation
Full-room tile is the job type we have done most in Canton. On 2000s plywood subfloors the price splits into tile, demolition and floor prep, quoted as separate lines. Ceramic runs $8-15 per sq ft installed and porcelain $10-20.
Tile and grout repair
The other job type on our Canton books. Cracked tiles, hollow spots and grout falling out of a 2005 shower usually trace to movement or a missing membrane, so the estimate names the cause before the fix, and we look for a match when the builder's tile is discontinued.
Large-format tile
Tile 12x24 and up wants a floor flat to 1/8 inch over 10 feet, tighter than Canton's 2000s subfloors were built to. We check flatness before quoting and price self-leveling as its own line. Installed large-format runs $12-25 per sq ft.
Bathroom renovation
Canton's 2000s bathrooms are reaching the age where the pan and backer behind the tile matter more than the surface. Tear-out, substrate prep, a waterproofing membrane in the shower and wet areas, then tile. Standard bathroom tile scope runs 3-5 days.
Kitchen renovation
Opening a 2000s Canton kitchen to the family room means the new floor has to run flat through both rooms, with the old threshold gone. We do the floor in tile or LVP, the backsplash and the transitions. Kitchens typically run 5-7 days.
LVP installation
For upstairs and finished basements in Canton's 2000s subdivisions: over a plywood subfloor the planks need refastened, leveled sheathing first; over a basement slab, a moisture reading before anything goes down. LVP runs $4-9 per sq ft installed.
