Featured projects
Precision you
can see.
Three installations that show what careful planning, clean execution, and an eye for detail can bring to a space.
Featured project 01
Travertine Ledge Stone Fireplace
Travertine ledge stone · Custom fireplace surround
Travertine ledge stone transforms this fireplace into a natural architectural feature. Angled ceilings and precisely mitered corners made the installation especially intricate, requiring careful planning and detailed cuts for a clean, continuous finish.
Craftsmanship highlight
Mitered corners and a custom layout shaped around the angled ceiling.
Featured project 02
Continuous Herringbone Backsplash
Herringbone tile · Kitchen backsplash
This herringbone backsplash brings movement and character to a beautifully finished kitchen. The pattern wraps around the ledge corners while maintaining continuous grout lines, creating a seamless installation that looks considered from every angle.
Craftsmanship highlight
Wrapped corners with uninterrupted herringbone alignment.
Featured project 03
Custom Two-Tone Penny Tile Floor
Two-colour penny tile · Hand-built pattern
Working with two tile colours supplied by the contractor, Justin created the design by hand on individual sheets before installing it on the floor. The painstaking layout demanded patience and precision, but produced a distinctive pattern that could not have come from an off-the-shelf tile sheet.
Craftsmanship highlight
A completely custom pattern assembled sheet by sheet before installation.
“The kind of installation that tests your patience, but makes the finished result worth it.”

The craft behind the name
More art than job.
Justin grew up as a concrete finisher, but seasonal work pushed him toward a trade with more room to build and more room to create.
After 17 years setting tile and operating CLEAR-CUT TILE since 2013, he still sees every project as a new composition: different rooms, shapes, sizes, and possibilities. Largely self-taught through years of hands-on experience, he has developed a trusted approach built around proven products, careful preparation, and an unwavering eye for detail.
Today, Justin and Elizabeth run the business while raising their young family in Mountain View County, serving neighbours throughout Central Alberta.
