Shower, bathroom & backsplash tile in Hampton Roads
Tile work throughout the bathroom — floors, walls, showers, tub surrounds, niches, and benches — plus kitchen backsplashes. Full retile or a single surface, built on waterproofing done properly.
The tile is the part you see
A shower is a system. Behind the tile there’s a pan sloped to the drain, a curb, and a waterproofing layer on the walls and floor. Tile and grout work together with the waterproofing layers behind them, which is why we treat waterproofing as the core of the job, not an add-on.
What we build
- Showers: shower pans, curbs, waterproofing, and wall tile, including walk-in showers.
- Tub surrounds: replacing dated surrounds or tile with a fresh, properly waterproofed installation.
- Bathroom floors: porcelain, ceramic, or natural stone, including hex and mosaic.
- Niches, benches, and trim detail: recessed shelves, built-in seats, and clean edge finishing.
- Kitchen backsplashes: subway, mosaic, patterned, or large-format, with careful layout around outlets, windows, and cabinet ends.
Why it matters here
Hampton Roads humidity is hard on bathrooms. Poorly ventilated baths in older homes — common in Norfolk, Hampton, and Newport News — are often ready for a refresh. When we open up an old shower, we take a look at what’s behind it and talk through anything that needs attention before new work goes in.
Layout and materials
Good tile work is planned before the first tile is set. We work out where cuts land so you don’t end up with slivers at a corner or a crooked line at eye level, and we’ll help you choose tile that suits wet areas — porcelain for shower floors and walls in most cases, natural stone if you’re ready for the extra care.
How a bathroom or backsplash job runs
- Free on-site measurement: we look at the existing space, check for damage, and discuss layout and materials.
- Clear scope and price before any work starts.
- Demo and prep: removal, repair, and waterproofing.
- Tile, grout, and finish.
Tile takes longer than plank floors because of mortar and grout cure times; we’ll give you a realistic schedule. For tile floors elsewhere in the house, see tile installation.
Questions we hear about shower & backsplash tile
Can you retile just the shower, or the whole bathroom?
Either! We handle full bathroom retiles as well as single surfaces like a floor, shower, or tub surround.
What if there’s an issue behind the old tile?
If we notice anything that needs attention, we’ll show you and talk through options before moving forward.
Do you install kitchen backsplashes?
Yes — porcelain, ceramic, or natural stone, including mosaic and patterned layouts.
