Professional Tile & Flooring in Kennesaw
Expert Installation Services for Kennesaw Homes & Businesses
First Choice Tile LLC is a Marietta, GA tile and flooring contractor serving Kennesaw (same Cobb County as our base). Kennesaw work has been on our books since 2020, most recently January 2023: kitchen backsplash, full-room tile, and tile repair. Much of Kennesaw was built out in the 1990s and 2000s, so the typical house has a plywood subfloor, a builder-grade shower and a closed kitchen someone now wants opened up, and the estimate has to price the prep those conditions demand before it prices the tile. The city spans two ZIP codes, 30144 around downtown and Kennesaw State and 30152 out toward Kennesaw Mountain and Stilesboro Road, and many Kennesaw mailing addresses sit in unincorporated Cobb County rather than inside the city limits.
What we find in Kennesaw homes
The 1990s and 2000s subdivisions that make up most of Kennesaw share a few conditions. Floors are plywood over joists, and the span between them flexes enough that the 12x12 ceramic from the original build often shows cracked grout lines or hollow spots; before any new floor goes down we check fastening and flatness, and a self-leveling pour is priced as its own line when the base needs it. Large-format tile (12x24 inches and up) magnifies every high and low spot, and the lippage that results catches light across the room and cannot be fixed with grout. Builder-grade showers of that era commonly went in over cement board or greenboard with no waterproofing membrane, so a bathroom estimate starts with what is behind the wall, not the tile in front of it.

Our Services in Kennesaw
Backsplash installation
Kitchen backsplash is a job type we have done in Kennesaw. Kitchens from the 1990s and 2000s usually carry a 4-inch laminate or granite strip that comes off first, with the drywall behind it patched before tile. Published range: $480-1,500 installed, or $15-40 per sq ft.
Full-room tile installation
Full-room tile floors are on our Kennesaw record. On plywood subfloors of this vintage the floor is only as good as the flatness and fastening under it, so the estimate lists subfloor prep as its own line. Installed tile runs $8-20 per sq ft depending on material.
Tile and grout repair
Tile repair is a job type done in Kennesaw. In 1990s and 2000s houses the usual failure is 12x12 ceramic cracking along a joist line or grout crumbling over a flexing plywood subfloor, so the repair quote names the cause before the fix, or the patch fails again.
Large-format tile
Tile 12x24 inches and up, sometimes 24x48, needs a flat substrate that a 1990s Kennesaw plywood floor rarely offers as found. We read the floor before quoting and price self-leveling as its own line. Installed large-format runs $12-25 per sq ft.
Bathroom renovation and waterproofing
Original bathrooms in Kennesaw's 1990s and 2000s subdivisions are reaching the end of their service life. Tear-out, substrate prep, a waterproofing membrane in the shower and wet areas, then tile; the standard bathroom tile scope runs 3-5 days. A tiled shower with waterproofing runs $6,000-12,000.
LVP installation
LVP at $4-9 per sq ft installed goes over the same plywood subfloors as tile and telegraphs every dip in them, so on Kennesaw floors from the 1990s and 2000s refastening loose sheets and leveling low spots come before the first plank.
