Meet Christopher Torres, Owner and Operator of Master Touch Installations Inc. who shares 3 before and after tile installations.
TOA: Chris, tell us about yourself and your background?
CT: I am originally from Peru. I moved to Cape Coral, Florida with my family in 2001.
Other than owning and operating Master Touch Installations Inc, I also work as a Firefighter at Lehigh Acres Fire Department and proudly serve in the United States Army Reserves.
I can honestly say I have the best jobs in the World.
TOA: How long have you been in the Fort Myers Area?
CT: I have been in the Fort Myers area for 17 years now.
TOA: How did Master Touch Installations get started?
CT: I started Master Touch Installations Inc., back in 2005 just a few years after graduating High School. I can still remember sitting for my contractor’s exam and realizing I was the youngest guy there. I will never forget knocking door to door and standing outside stores passing out flyers, but now looking back at all those long days and long nights, they were all worth it.
I wanted to create a company built on trust, customer service and quality and that continues to this day. We still believe in that.
TOA: Do you specialize in specific types of tile installations?
CT: I personally love the look of stones and travertines.
We have done some beautiful jobs and we always enjoy designing them. Our professional installers have experience in different types of flooring and we have always worked with our customers to accomplish anything they wish to have, but if there is something we specialize in, it will be on going above and beyond our customer’s expectations.
TOA: Chris, in what geographic locations does Master Touch Installations install?
CT: Primarily in Lee County, Florida.
TOA: Which tile products do you and your clients find most interesting right now?
CT: Lately, we have been doing a lot of work with travertines and stones.
French and Versailles patterns are very popular, but we also have customers asking more and more for the wood plank tiles.

TOA: Which are your 3 favorite before and after tile installations and why?
CT: We love working with stones and travertines.
Before and After Bathroom Tile Installation with Travertine
On this project the homeowner showed us a picture from a home magazine and asked us if we could do something like it. After long hours designing it and planning it, it was pretty safe to say that we made her bathroom look way better than the one in the magazine!
Below you see the bathroom before installation had started.
We used the 6x6 Royal Scabos Tumbled Travertine, Chiaro Honed Listellos 4x12 and the Classic Travertine 1x12 from Tile Outlets of America to create this beautiful masterpiece you see below.

At Master Touch Installations Inc., we always strive to give our customers the best quality products in the market and that’s the reason we always work with Tile Outlets of America.
TOA: How do you prepare your clients for an installation project?
CT: We sit down with our clients and talk about all their ideas, concerns and expectations they might have on each particular project, sometimes you will even find us at Tile Outlets of America shopping and designing with our clients.
It is very important for us that they know we will work with them every step of the way and that they are our number #1 priority.
