About This Project
This Wellesley master bathroom renovation included a full tile replacement — new large-format floor tile, a fully tiled shower surround with a custom niche, and a tile accent wall behind the freestanding tub. Waterproofing was installed throughout the shower before any tile was set.
What Made This Project Successful
Waterproofing first
We install Schluter Kerdi waterproofing membrane on all shower walls and floors before any tile is set. This is the industry standard for a watertight shower that will last decades.
Custom niche built in place
The shower niche was framed, waterproofed, and tiled in place — fully integrated with the surrounding tile layout for a clean, built-in look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you handle the demo and disposal?
Yes. We demo existing tile and substrate, haul away all debris, and prepare the surface for new tile installation.
What waterproofing system do you use?
