Your Wallis Tile Installation Crew
JM Painting & Remodeling handles tile installation throughout Wallis. Substrate, layout, then tile. Every Wallis job runs the same way regardless of how large it is: the surface gets prepared before anything is applied, and no step gets skipped at your house because it is hidden once the work is finished.
Our Tile Installation scope in Wallis
- Waterproofing or crack isolation where the location calls for it
- Layout set so cuts land where they read best
- Tile set with full coverage, no hollow spots
- Grout and sealed movement joints to finish
- Substrate checked and made flat and sound
With a 2023 Census estimate of 1,349 residents, Wallis is large enough that we see the same construction eras repeat: subdivisions built in runs, with the same details failing in the same order. Movement joints get left out most often, and they are what stop cracked grout lines on slab-on-grade homes.
Wallis is an incorporated city in Austin County covering about 1.5 square miles, home to 1,349 residents (2023 est.), with Orchard 6 miles out, Simonton 6.2 miles out, Weston Lakes 8.1 miles out. We treat it as one stop on a route, not a special trip.
The process is deliberately boring. Estimate first, in person and free. Scope second, in writing. Then the tile installation itself, and finally a walk of the finished work with you at your Wallis home before the job is called done.

Why Wallis homeowners call JM Painting
Experience shows up in the boring parts of a job. After 20+ years we know where tile installation goes wrong, so a Wallis quote covers the real work up front instead of growing halfway through, and the crew that starts your job finishes it.
Touch-ups and callbacks are where distance shows. With Orchard just 6 miles from Wallis on the same route, coming back to make something right is a detour for us, not a lost day, so it actually happens.
