Tile That Looks Right on Day One and Still Does in Year Ten
Maybe the grout in your shower has gone dark and the bottom row of tile is starting to move. Maybe you have a box of tile samples on the counter and a kitchen wall that has been bare since the countertops went in. Or the bathroom is simply thirty years old and you are done with it.
Whatever brought you here, you want the same things: someone who shows up, protects your home, tells you the real cost before starting and leaves you with tile that is flat, straight and watertight.
That is what Nova Tiling Pros does. We are a tile contractor based in Arlington, VA, serving homeowners across Northern Virginia with bathroom and shower tile, full bathroom remodeling, kitchen backsplashes, tile floors and tile repair.
Flood tested before tile.
Every shower pan we build is filled and checked first.
Why Nova
Why Arlington Homeowners Call Us First
Tile jobs go wrong in predictable ways. Here is how we keep yours from being one of them.
Tile Is Our Trade
We are tile setters first. Layout, flatness, coverage and clean edges are what we do all day, so your project is not a side job handed to a general laborer.
Waterproofing You Can Verify
Every shower we build gets a continuous waterproofing layer and a flood test before tile. You can see the water line hold for yourself.
A Written Scope Before We Start
Your estimate spells out what is included, what it costs and how long it takes. If we find something behind a wall, you hear about it before we act.
Your Home Stays Livable
Floors protected, dust contained, debris out daily and a tidy site each evening. In condos we handle elevators, hours and management approvals.
Bathroom & Shower Tile
Bathroom & Shower Tile Installation in Arlington, VA
Bathrooms are most of what we do. A tiled shower is only as good as what is behind it, so every wet area we build gets a continuous waterproofing layer, a correctly sloped pan and full mortar coverage before a single finished tile goes up.
From a 5x8 hall bath in a Lyon Park colonial to a curbless primary shower in McLean, we handle layout, niches, benches, trim and grout so the lines land where they should.

Bathroom Remodeler
Bathroom Remodeler in Arlington, VA
Need more than new tile? We take bathrooms down to the studs and rebuild them: new shower or tub, tile, vanity, fixtures, lighting and paint, managed by one crew from demolition to final caulk.
Because tile and waterproofing are our specialty, the wet areas of your remodel get built by people who do them every day, not handed to whoever is free that week.

- Tub-to-Shower Conversion
- Walk-In Shower Installation
- Small Bathroom Remodel

Kitchen Remodeler ยท Tile & Backsplash
Kitchen Remodeler in Arlington, VA: Backsplash & Tile
A backsplash is the most visible tile in your house, at eye level and under bright lights. We lay it out so cuts fall where you will not notice them, wrap outlets and windows cleanly and finish exposed edges with trim that suits the tile.
We handle the tile scope of a kitchen remodel, backsplashes and kitchen floors, and work alongside your cabinet and countertop installers so the schedule holds.

- Mosaic & Glass Tile Backsplash
- Backsplash Replacement
- Kitchen Floor Tile Installation
Flooring Contractor ยท Tile
Flooring Contractor in Arlington, VA: Tile Floors
Tile floors fail from the bottom up. If the subfloor flexes or is not flat, the tile cracks and the grout crumbles no matter how good it looked on install day. We spend the time on prep so the finished floor lasts.
Kitchens, bathrooms, entries, mudrooms, laundry rooms and basements: we install porcelain, ceramic and natural stone, including large-format tile and electric radiant heat under it.

Tile & Grout Repair
Tile Repair & Regrouting in Arlington, VA
Not every tile problem needs a remodel. A few cracked tiles, grout that has gone dark and crumbly, or failed caulk around the tub can often be put right in a day or two.
We find out why it failed first. Sometimes the fix is fresh grout. Sometimes water has been getting behind the wall, and we will show you what we found before recommending anything bigger.

Your Local Tile Contractor in Arlington
Arlington is where we are based and where we do most of our work. We know the difference between a 1930s colonial in Lyon Village with a mortar-bed bathroom, a 1940s Fairlington townhouse condo and a tower in Crystal City with a loading dock and a list of rules.
That local experience means fewer surprises, tighter estimates and a crew that is never far away if you need us back.

FAQ
Tile Questions, Straight Answers
If yours is not here, call or send us a note with your estimate request.
How much does tile installation cost in Arlington, VA?
It depends on the size of the area, the tile you choose and the condition of what is underneath. A kitchen backsplash is a small job; a full shower with waterproofing, a niche and large-format tile is a much bigger one. Preparation is often the largest variable. We look at the space in person and give you a written, itemized estimate, free of charge, so you see exactly where the money goes.
Do you charge for estimates?
No. In-home estimates are free and come with no obligation. We measure, check the substrate and plumbing where we can see it, talk through your options and follow up with a written scope and price.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Nova Tiling Pros is a licensed and insured Virginia contractor. We can provide a certificate of insurance for your condo association or property manager on request.
Do I buy the tile, or do you supply it?
Either works. Many clients choose their own tile from a local showroom and we tell them exactly how much to order. We supply the setting materials: backer board, waterproofing, mortar, grout, trim and sealant. If you would like help choosing, we are glad to point you toward tile that suits the room and your budget.
How soon can you start my project?
We give you a realistic start date with your estimate. Small repairs can usually be scheduled sooner than full remodels, which also depend on tile and fixture lead times. We do not start demolition until your materials are on hand, so your bathroom is never torn apart waiting on a delivery.
Do you work in condos and high-rise buildings?
Yes, regularly. Arlington is full of them. We coordinate approvals, insurance certificates, elevator bookings, work hours and water shut-offs with your building so the job runs smoothly. See condo bathroom remodeling for details.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in Arlington and work throughout Northern Virginia, including Alexandria, Falls Church, McLean, Vienna, Fairfax and Reston, plus nearby Washington, DC and Maryland suburbs. See the full list on our service areas page.
Is your work guaranteed?
Yes. Our installation work is covered by a 5-year written workmanship warranty, and the tile and setting materials carry their manufacturers' warranties. We explain both when we go over your estimate.
