Tile and grout
Wall and floor tile, laid and grouted as part of the same job as the fixtures around it.
Where the room gets its look
Tile and Grout
This shower is one of ours: large-format grey stone-look tile, a matte black rainfall head and handheld on a slide bar, and a pebble mosaic set into the niche. That's the level of finish tile and grout work is responsible for.
Fewer grout lines, more of the stone
Large-format tile like the grey stone-look panels in that shower does one thing a small tile can't: it covers more wall with fewer seams, so grout lines stop competing with the finish itself. The pebble mosaic set into the niche does the opposite job on purpose, breaking up that same wall with a different texture so the niche reads as its own detail instead of disappearing into the surround. The matte black rainfall head and handheld wand were picked against that grey stone deliberately, the way dark hardware tends to hold its own next to a cool, quiet tile rather than fighting it. Tile and grout work covers this whole picture: wall tile, solid-surface wall systems, niche shelving, shower glass and framing, and the bathroom flooring underneath it, with hardware finishes available in stainless steel, brushed nickel, polished chrome and matte black, plus solid brass, acrylic and glass accessories for anything smaller.
Grout you don't have to think about later
Large-format layout is worth choosing for its own sake, since fewer grout lines means fewer places for a wall to eventually need attention. Sealed grout sheds water instead of holding it, which matters most at the floor line and around any niche or bench where water sits longest. None of that is a one-time step. Grout keeps doing its job as long as it stays sealed, and a wall that gets resealed on a normal schedule holds its look for years longer than one that doesn't. It's ordinary maintenance, not a special service call, and it's the difference between a shower that still looks like the day it was finished and one that starts showing its grout lines again.

The tile and grout scope
What's covered under tile and grout
Solid-surface wall systems
A single-panel alternative to tile, with no grout lines to maintain across the surround.
Niche shelving
Built into the wall during the same job, finished to match or contrast the surround.
Shower glass and framing
Fitted to the finished walls, not measured against a rough opening from before the tile went up.
Flooring
Bathroom-specific flooring, tied into the same finish plan as the walls above it.
Hardware and fixtures
Faucets, showerheads and grab bars in stainless steel, brushed nickel, polished chrome or matte black.
Tile and grout is usually chosen alongside the design work that decides where the niche sits and which finish the surround needs in the first place. See how that plan comes together on bathroom design and 3D renderings, browse every service we run, or book your free in-home consultation.
