Tile Work


As some of you may know, I have taken on a large builder in the area, so now I get a chance to do some sweet tile work. I did not save my other pics, but I will start to post em here before I delete.
This house was basic, so no biggie. This is an example of adding a little style, without breaking the budget or being hard on the eyes. Just pick a different color for a row along tub and in shower, and your done

Too bad they wouldn't spring for a listello, it would have really jazzed it up. Nice job overall.

Re: Tile Work


Looks good, and yes, I agree changing colors is an inexpensive way to add some 'flair'. Here's some pics of my second floor bathroom I did 10 years ago, just adding a different color, but a little more 'radical' in the design.

Re: Tile Work


We have a huge Military up here, and they buy these new homes for a short amount of time, so I have to add flair, but make it resellable easily. This is one of those cases.
Coming up here is a more long term tile job, can't wait to post those pics....

Re: Tile Work


Yeah, I know what you're saying, 'mine' is more of a 'love-it' or 'hate-it' kind of thing, where yours is more neutralized and therefore 'safe' for resale. Your work looks great!
