What you’ll see in the video

Clean demo & prep: We protect your home with floor and doorway containment, then remove the old surround with minimal dust.
Waterproofing that lasts: Corners, seams, and the niche are sealed and flood-tested; the shower pan is sloped to code so water goes where it should—down the drain.
Tile layout with intention: Large-format wall tile and a slip-resistant mosaic floor are mapped to the room, keeping grout lines level and consistent.
Custom niche & trim: Shelf heights and trim profiles are planned around your bottles and bar soaps, so the niche is useful and beautiful.
Grout & finish: Stain- and mold-resistant grout is packed tight, wiped clean, and sealed for easier maintenance.

Why white tile works so well

Timeless, bright, and versatile. White tile plays well with brushed nickel, chrome, matte black, or brass hardware. It bounces light, makes compact baths feel open, and pairs with nearly any paint color or vanity style. For Florida homes, where natural light is abundant, white tile amplifies the airy, coastal vibe while keeping the space crisp and clean.

Built for Florida conditions

Humidity, salt air, and quick summer downpours call for a shower that’s waterproofed correctly—not just “water-resistant.” Our method focuses on substrate stability, proper membranes, sealed penetrations, and a flood-tested pan. That means fewer callbacks and more peace of mind. We also use slip-resistant mosaics on the floor for traction without sacrificing style.

Our Sarasota-first approach

We live and work where you do—Sarasota, Siesta Key, Venice, Nokomis, Osprey, North Port, Englewood, Lakewood Ranch, and Bradenton. Local knowledge matters: tile movement joints for Florida temperature swings, grout choices for coastal homes, and product sourcing that actually arrives on time. We coordinate with your plumber and glass installer so the project moves smoothly from demo to final seal.

Materials we love for white tile showers

Large-format porcelain: Fewer grout lines, modern look, easy to clean.
Subway with a twist: Oversized or vertical-stack layouts for a fresh, contemporary feel.
Textured whites: Subtle waves or linen finishes add shadow and depth without busy patterns.
Mosaic floors: Hex, penny, or square in matte finishes for grip and classic style.
Trim profiles: Clean metal trims (brushed nickel/black) or mitered edges for that truly custom look.

Our 6-step build (high level)

Plan & protect: On-site measure, layout planning, and home protection.
Demo & repair: Careful removal, substrate inspection, and structural fixes if needed.
Waterproofing: Pan assembly, corner banding, niche sealing, and flood test.
Tile setting: Leveling system, even reveals, and consistent grout joints.
Grouting: Performance grout chosen for stain/mold resistance; color matched to your look.
Seal & clean: Final sealing, polish, and an after-care walkthrough so you know exactly how to maintain your shower.

Maintenance tips (so your shower stays perfect)

Daily: Quick squeegee on the glass and walls; it takes 30 seconds and prevents buildup.
Weekly: Mild, pH-neutral cleaner—no harsh acids. Microfiber cloth for fixtures and niche.
Quarterly: Quick grout check; if you see any suspicious spots, call us early—tiny fixes stay tiny.
Annually: Reseal where recommended (we’ll tell you exactly which products and schedule to follow).

Common questions we hear

How long will it take? Most standard showers complete in 5–8 working days once materials are on site. Can you help with design? Yes—samples, layout sketches, and trim selections are part of our process. Do you install the glass, too? We coordinate with trusted glass partners or your preferred vendor for a seamless timeline. What does a shower typically cost? Every space is different, but we provide a clear, itemized estimate so you understand materials, labor, and any options (niches, benches, accent walls) before we begin.
