Shower Tile Installation

Custom tiled showers built to last decades. Full Schluter waterproofing, curbless walk-ins, tiled niches and benches — finished to the highest craftsmanship standard.

Built to Last: The Superior Difference

Schluter Waterproofing

Every shower gets a full Kerdi or Hydro Ban membrane — walls, curb, niches and pan. Never a shortcut.

Code-Compliant Slope

Pre-sloped pans (¼" per foot to drain) eliminate ponding, prevent mildew and meet BC plumbing code.

Crafted Details

Mitered corners on niches, perfect tile alignment around plumbing, color-matched grout & silicone.

Shower Installation FAQs

How much does a tiled shower installation cost in Vancouver?

A custom tiled shower in Vancouver typically runs $6,000–$15,000+ depending on size, tile selection (porcelain vs. natural stone vs. large-format slabs), waterproofing system, glass enclosure, and features like niches, benches and curbless thresholds. Every quote includes the Schluter or Laticrete waterproofing membrane — never a shortcut.

What waterproofing system do you use for showers?

We install full Schluter Kerdi or Laticrete Hydro Ban waterproofing systems on every shower — including walls, curb, niches and pre-sloped Kerdi-Shower-T or custom mud-set pans. These are the same systems specified by architects and inspected for code compliance across BC.

Can you build a curbless walk-in shower?

Yes — curbless (zero-threshold) showers are one of our specialties. We coordinate floor framing, linear drain placement, slope and waterproofing so the bathroom floor flows seamlessly into the shower. Curbless designs are accessible-friendly and visually stunning.

How long does a shower tile installation take?

A full shower demo and tile installation typically takes 5–10 working days: demo and rough-in (1–2 days), waterproofing and flood-test (2 days), tiling (2–3 days), grout and silicone (1 day), and glass install. We coordinate with plumbers, electricians and glass fabricators throughout.

What is the best tile for a shower floor?

Small-format mosaic tile (2×2″ or smaller) is the classic choice for shower floors — the extra grout lines provide grip and conform to drain slope. Pebble tile is popular too. We recommend porcelain mosaic with a slip-resistant (DCOF ≥ 0.42) rating for safety.
