Porcelain and glass master bathroom tub deck We recently finished a master bathroom in Windsor, Colorado with porcelain and glass tile.

We began by removing the existing tub, tile and shower.  We then removed a wall between the shower and tub to open up the bathroom and bring more natural light into the shower area. Doing this opened up the entire back half of the bathroom and made it feel like it wasn’t so cramped. One little wall can really close in a fairly large area and make it seem much smaller than it actually is.

Porcelain and glass shower tile installation We enlarged the shower a bit and waterproofed everything with Schluter Kerdi waterproofing membrane and used Schluter Ditra on the bathroom floor. The tile in the shower is Florida Tile’s Legend ‘Olympic’ in 12 x 24 with a double row of ‘Air Stripp’ bronze glass mosaic inserted between each tile. This design was carried along the tub deck and splash to tie the shower and tub together with a single design element. The shower floor has the same line of porcelain in a 2 x 2 mosaic. We also installed two shelves in the corner and ran the glass pencil rail across the face of them to continue the flow of the design.

The floor is the Legend ‘Olympic’ as well in an 18 x 18 inch large format tile, half of which I cut in half to create a pattern with 9 x 18 and the 18 x 18 tiles. Many times tile is not available in specific sizes needed for certain patterns. If larger formats are available they can be cut to size to create nearly any pattern you like.

The bathroom was finished off with frameless glass shower doors and brushed nickel fixtures. This complete master bathroom remodel really came together nicely and the homeowners were very happy with the end result.

Tile Art had a great 2011 and we would like to give a great big THANK YOU to all our clients. We hope you are all enjoying your new tile installations.

I thought we could show off some of the projects from last year and put up a real quick post with some pictures of bathroom and kitchen tile installations from 2011. These are not all the installations we did last year, but most of the larger projects. Many of these tile installations began with removing nearly everything down to the wall studs and beginning fresh. We think the results are incredible and appreciate being able to turn our clients’ visions into reality.

Thank you for choosing Tile Art for your project! Without great clients like you we would not have the opportunity to do what we love to do. Have a great 2012 and give us a call when you are ready to begin your next project.

Rainforest green kitchen floor tile installation with in-floor heat Tile Art recently finished a kitchen, dining room, hall, bathroom and entry floor remodel with 18 x 18 inch rainforest green marble. The homeowner wanted to replace the builder’s grade ceramic entry and bathroom floors as well as the wood floor in the remainder of the main floor. After some time of decision making over what type of covering she wanted, she saw the rainforest green marble and fell in love with it.

Although called a marble, rainforest green is technically a serpentinite, commonly referred to as a serpentine stone. This is a rock consisting of one or more serpentine minerals. These serpentine minerals are what form the ribbons and streaks of color through the rock. When quarried and polished they lend a very unique look and flow to the individual tiles. For this reason I find that most people will either love it or hate it – rarely is there a middle-ground. There is also a stone called rainforest brown marble – the only difference being that the main background color is brown rather than green.
