Ball Ground is small-town Cherokee County: a historic downtown that grew up along the railroad, farmland and wooded lots in every direction, and a steady stream of newer homes as people move north for a little more room. The Tile Guys are based in the Towne Lake area of Woodstock, ZIP 30189, and we take residential tile jobs in Ball Ground for homeowners who want a local crew instead of a big-metro remodeling company.
Getting to Ball Ground from Woodstock 30189
Ball Ground is a straight run north on I-575 from our home base, past Canton. It is a longer drive for us than Towne Lake or Holly Springs, and we would rather say that up front than surprise you. When we quote a Ball Ground job, we talk through scheduling at the same time so you know what the calendar looks like before you commit. For most showers, floors, and backsplashes, the drive does not change how we build anything — the prep, waterproofing, and layout are the same as a job down the street from us.
What Ball Ground homes tend to need
The housing here is a real mix, and the tile work follows the house:
- Older homes near downtown and on country roads — original bathrooms with tub surrounds, floors that are not quite flat, and framing that has moved over the decades. These jobs start with checking the subfloor and walls before any tile is picked.
- Homes on larger lots — mudrooms, laundry rooms, and back entries that take red clay, boots, and dogs every day. Porcelain floor tile with a grout color chosen for Georgia dirt holds up far better than the builder-grade sheet goods many of these rooms started with.
- Newer subdivisions — builder-grade showers and hall baths that owners want to upgrade to a real tiled walk-in shower, plus backsplashes in kitchens that were delivered with bare drywall behind the counters.
Tile services we offer in Ball Ground
Custom tile showers and shower remodels. Tub-to-shower conversions, walk-in showers, niches, benches, and low-curb or curbless entries where the floor allows it. Every wet wall, the curb, and the pan get a real waterproofing layer before tile goes up. See our custom shower tile installation page for how we build them.
Bathroom floors and tub surrounds. Porcelain and ceramic floors, tub surrounds, wainscoting, and heated tile floors in primary and hall baths. More on our bathroom tile page.
Kitchen backsplashes. Subway, herringbone, mosaic, and stacked layouts, cut clean around outlets, windows, and range hoods. Details on our kitchen backsplash installation page.
Tile and wood-look porcelain floors. Kitchens, entries, mudrooms, and laundry rooms, with the floor flattened before tile goes down so you do not get lippage or hollow spots. See tile flooring.
Repair, regrouting, and recaulking. Cracked tiles replaced, crumbling or stained grout redone, and failing caulk at tubs and showers replaced — when a repair will actually last. See tile repair & regrouting.
Ball Ground tile questions
Do you really come out to Ball Ground? Yes. Ball Ground is in north Cherokee County, and Cherokee County is the area we work. It is farther from our 30189 base than our core Woodstock neighborhoods, so call or text and we will confirm scheduling for your address.
Can you quote from photos? Photos and rough measurements help us give you a sense of the job and what questions to ask. A written estimate comes after we see the substrate in person, because the condition of the floor and walls decides how the job is built.
My house is older. Can tile go over the existing floor? Sometimes. If the existing floor is flat, solid, and well bonded, it can be an option. If it flexes, sounds hollow, or has water damage underneath, it comes up first. We check before we recommend either way.
Do you post prices online? No. Every house is different, so we give a written, itemized estimate after an in-home visit — free, with no pressure.
