Looking for good Tile setter in Mississauga / Toronto

I dont know if this is the right forum to post this but Ill try...

I need some help with some flooring.
Was going to do it myself but dont have the time right now.

I need someone to set just under 600 sq feet of 20" porceline tile on a diag.

Subfloor is sound:
5/8" osb with 1/2" ply on top. Joists are 2x10 @ 10" OC.

Will be using ditra XL to bring tile floor up to 3/4" height and match hardwood.

SO... Looking for someone with experience with setting large format tiles on Ditra XL and Laticrete Spectralok epoxy grout

Insisting tiles be cut with wet saw. Also very particular about lippage etc... must be a quality install, must provide pics and references of previous jobs.

Pls feel free to email or call me.

I'll move you to the Professionals' Hangout, Bob. Get better response to this kinda request here sometimes.

But if you want to discuss how to do all or part of the project yourownself, we'll move you back to the Advice forum or start a new thread there for that.

20" on the diagonal. Not going to be cheap. Not a lot of folks who have a saw that can cut that on the diagonal. What is that? Close to 30"?
Good Luck

1$/ft for what? That won't even cover the gas bill for my truck.
