Tile Shelf


Has any one ever seen or know where to get a tile shelf? Bigger than the corner ones, or the ones for like a bar of soap.

Have used Corian stock, just cut 45's on miter box whatever size you need. One customer wanted 8 in a 5-0 shower stall. Works for me.

Re: Tile Shelf


Takes some extra time (and $$ ), - - but the best way is to custom make one that recesses into (an interior) wall . . .

Re: Tile Shelf


As Tom mentioned, I also install a niche in stalls big enough for shampoo and soap. I think it's safer as well.... After framers are done, my guys will come in and add speciaty blocking: where mirrors or fans hang, tp and towel bar locations, closet rod and shelf locations, niches, ect... All great sales pionts you can bring up with the costomers! -Chris
