River rock and faux brick makes for a ridiculously striking shower! This is a recent bathroom renovation (we didn’t actually restructure anything, so not a remodel). The original bathroom was awash* with builder-standard square tile, white in the shower, beige on the floor. Grout had cracked with the settling of the…

TRANSCRIPT: We needed to update a bathroom and to enlarge a shower, so that’s been the main thing is to get the bathroom where it’s safer and easier for us. Gloria was wonderful. She took us through I don’t know how many hundreds of tiles we looked at. But we…
This was a quickie spruce-up we did in Cleburne recently! Removed the existing backsplash and installed a new one with different patterns of tile! Homeowner was quite satisfied! “Very pleased! Best customer service in Cleburne!” –A. Bell (January 2018, Tile Backsplash in Cleburne TX)
