Tile is where a room gets its personality — and, in a shower, where bad work quietly causes the most expensive failures. We do both halves right: the look you'll love, and the membrane you'll never see.

Backsplashes behind the range, full shower surrounds with niches and benches, and floors set flat in older homes where nothing starts level. Porcelain, ceramic, natural stone, glass and zellige.

  • Backsplashes

    From a clean subway run to a full-height stone slab behind the range — the kitchen's low-cost, high-impact upgrade.

  • Shower surrounds & niches

    Waterproofed to the membrane, sloped to drain, with recessed niches and benches detailed in — not bolted on.

  • Floors

    Large-format and slip-resistant tile, self-leveled where older Lehigh Valley floors need it, run tight to the walls.

The part that matters most

Tile and grout are not waterproof — water works through grout over time. What keeps your walls and the room below dry is the system behind the tile: a proper membrane, the right slope, and clean detailing at the niche and curb. It's invisible, and it's the one place we never cut corners.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

How much does tile installation cost in the Lehigh Valley?＋
Bathroom tile runs about $15–$25 per square foot installed (material plus setting), and a kitchen backsplash typically lands around $800–$1,500. Natural stone, mosaics and intricate patterns cost more to set than large-format tile because they take more labor.
What's the best tile for a shower?＋
Porcelain is the workhorse — dense, water-resistant and durable, now available in large formats that mean fewer grout lines. Natural stone and zellige make beautiful accents but need more care. Whatever the tile, the waterproofing behind it matters more than the tile itself.
Do you waterproof showers properly?＋
Always — it's the part you never see and never want to skimp on. Tile and grout aren't waterproof on their own, so we install a proper waterproof membrane, slope the floor correctly to the drain, and detail the niche and curb so water stays out of your walls. It's the single most important thing in a tiled shower.
What tile is popular in 2026?＋
Large-format porcelain (fewer grout lines, a calmer look), handmade zellige, fluted and textured tile, and warmer palettes — creams, taupes and terracotta replacing cool gray. We cover the looks in depth in our backsplash & shower tile guide.
