What’s next
underfoot.

Bring a sample beside your cabinets, walls and adjacent floors. Ask about the exact product’s wear layer, surface texture, installation requirements and care—not just the color name.

Look beyond the room photograph. Review floor or wall suitability, grout joints, edge details, cleaning and the substrate preparation your tile needs.

A color change and a surface refresh are different scopes. Explore both, then review the actual floor and samples before choosing the work.

For your project, use new product discoveries to ask better questions about maintenance, specifications and installation—not to skip a physical sample.

Have a tile idea from a show or collection? Save the product name, size, finish and intended room so Mago can discuss the installation scope.

For homeowners, ask how the proposed sanding, preparation and finishing methods fit your floor. Listing this resource does not imply that Mago holds a specific NWFA certification.

A useful takeaway connects a new product or technique to a real installation need: substrate preparation, maintenance, layout or the space’s intended use.

Ask which items are included, which depend on a site review, and what can change the final scope. Share dimensions and photos so those questions can be discussed early.

Use the calculator for an initial discussion and bring your room dimensions into the estimate. Stairs require a tailored scope rather than a simple room-area calculation.

Share the existing surface, any water history and the desired finish. Ask for the preparation and coating layers to be identified in the written scope.
