We recently finished up a master bathroom remodel in Fort Collins. The previous bathroom was outdated and the room made much smaller with walls and divisions, the tub and shower on opposite sides of the room, white builder’s grade tile and, of course, the huge ‘mirror wall’ above the vanity – presumably to give the…
We recently finished up a master bathroom remodel in Fort Collins. We began the shower construction with Durock cement board on the walls and a custom shower pan with the kerdi drain. The waterproofing was completed on the walls and floor with Schluter kerdi waterproofing membrane (the orange stuff). Building a shower in this manner…
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…
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…
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…
We recently finished a complete master bathroom remodel with a complete custom shower, soaking tub surround and 12 x 12 inch marble tile in Fort Collins, Colorado.

We began by building a custom deck for the new tub…
I recently finished up a kitchen remodel in Fort Collins. We replaced the outdated (1960’s!) laminate countertops with granite tile, added a glass backsplash, new sink and fixtures, stove, hood and dishwasher. We began by completely removing the old countertops and rebuilding with new solid plywood substrates. Over the plywood we added Schluter Ditra and…
I recently completed a porcelain kitchen floor in Fort Collins. The tile is 12 x 24 inch ‘bronze wood’ porcelain tile in a running bond, or ‘brick’ pattern. The homeowner chose this particular tile to match the dark cabinets they had installed in their home. Large format tiles such as these are becoming a very…
I recently finished up a large porcelain floor with a ‘basketweave’ pattern. The tile is Mannington Serengeti ‘Midnight Mist’ slate porcelain tile. The porcelain is incredible! It looks and feels almost exactly like real slate tile – without the maintenance headaches. Mannington’s Serengeti line has several different colors of porcelain that look and feel like…
A short time ago we completed a slate master bathroom in Erie, Colorado. The bathroom consisted of a new deck for a jacuzzi tub, slate floor, slate wainscot and shower. The slate consisted of gauged and honed material in a darker mixed earth colors with green overtones. Gauged stone means that it is cut to…
