    Explore tile projects from Metropolitan Bath & Tile that bring more style, texture, and personality into the bathroom. Each design is planned around the room’s size, shower or tub layout, floor pattern, grout color, lighting, and overall look.

    Bathroom Tile Options

    The right tile depends on where it is going, how much water it will see, how much grip is needed, and what kind of look you want. During your consultation, we’ll help you compare tile materials, sizes, finishes, patterns, and grout options.

    Shower Floor Tile

    Shower floor tile needs to look good and support proper drainage. Smaller tiles and mosaic patterns are often used because they can follow the slope of the shower floor.

    Shower Wall Tile

    Shower wall tile can be simple, bold, modern, classic, or spa-like. Larger tiles can create a cleaner look, while smaller or textured tiles can add more visual detail.

    Bathroom Floor Tile

    Bathroom floor tile should be durable, comfortable, and suited for wet areas. We help you choose tile that works with the vanity, shower, tub, walls, and overall design.

    Tub Surround Tile

    Tile around a bathtub protects the walls and gives the tub area a finished look. It can match the shower, contrast with the floor, or become its own design feature.

    Accent Tile

    Accent tile can be used in niches, borders, feature walls, shower bands, or behind the vanity. It is a smart way to add color or pattern without overwhelming the room.

    Mosaic Tile

    Mosaic tile adds texture, pattern, and detail. It is often used on shower floors, niches, accent strips, and smaller areas where a more decorative look is needed.

    Porcelain & Ceramic Tile

    Porcelain and ceramic tile are popular bathroom choices because they offer many styles, colors, shapes, and finishes. They can mimic stone, marble, concrete, wood, or handmade tile.

    Natural Stone Tile

    Natural stone tile brings variation, texture, and character into the bathroom. It can create a warm, timeless look but may require more care than porcelain or ceramic.

    Why Choose Metropolitan Bath & Tile For Bathroom Tile?

    Tile is one of the most visible parts of a bathroom, but the best results depend on more than the tile itself. The layout, cuts, grout lines, surface prep, waterproofing, transitions, corners, and edges all affect how the finished room looks.

    Metropolitan Bath & Tile helps homeowners make those choices before installation begins. Since 1979, our team has focused on bathroom remodeling, so we understand how tile connects with showers, tubs, vanities, flooring, lighting, plumbing, and daily moisture.

    We do not just install tile in a straight line and call it done. We help plan how the tile should frame the room, where patterns should start and stop, how grout should blend or contrast, and how the finished bathroom should feel when everything comes together.

    Bathroom Tile Installation Process

    Bathroom tile installation starts with the design, but the details behind the tile matter just as much. We look at where the tile will go, how the pattern should line up, what surfaces need prep, and how moisture will be handled in wet areas.

    1

    Review

    We review the floor, shower, tub surround, walls, or accent areas being tiled and look at the layout, surface condition, moisture exposure, and nearby bathroom features.

    2

    Design

    We help you choose tile materials, colors, sizes, patterns, grout, trim, edges, and accents so the design feels balanced with the rest of the bathroom.

    3

    Planning

    Before installation begins, we plan tile placement, pattern direction, cuts, transitions, niche details, borders, and focal points to avoid awkward lines or unfinished-looking edges.

    4

    Preperation

    Old materials are removed as needed, and floors, walls, shower areas, or tub surrounds are prepared for tile, waterproofing, leveling, and proper installation.

    5

    Installation

    Tile is installed with attention to spacing, pattern, alignment, drainage needs, corners, edges, grout joints, trim pieces, and how the full layout looks once finished.

    6

    Final Walkthrough

    We review the completed tile work with you, check the layout, grout, trim, and finish details, and make sure the bathroom feels clean, polished, and ready to use.

    Cost depends on the tile selected, area being tiled, layout complexity, prep work, waterproofing needs, grout, trim, pattern, and overall bathroom remodeling scope.

    Had new tile installed and it completely changed the space. The lines are straight, grout work is clean, and everything feels solid underfoot. The crew paid attention to details so nothing looks rushed or uneven. Really happy with the final result. Grout color is consistent and edges are smooth.

    – Mark T.

    We had a new tile backsplash put in above the vanity and it really upgraded the whole room. The pattern lines up perfectly and the cuts around outlets are super clean. Installer took their time and didn’t rush any of the detail work. Almost a year later and everything has held up very well.

    – Linda R.

    Had our shower re-tiled and it completely changed the bathroom. The walls and floor tile are aligned perfectly, and the black grout you suggested looks amazing. Your installer was careful with every cut around corners and fixtures. Really solid work overall. It feels like a brand new space.
