“They said it couldn’t be done.”

That’s what our clients kept hearing. Contractor after contractor telling them their vision wasn’t possible.

This bathroom features nearly 3'x6' porcelain tile installed on a 17-foot high accent wall. Several professionals flat-out said it couldn’t be done. Too risky. Too complex. One even called it impossible.

We called it a great idea.

We installed the same large format tile throughout the floor, around the tub, and inside the shower, but this wall was the crown jewel. A design centerpiece. One that deserved the extra effort.

We went a step further than what was asked of us, because we wanted to do this important piece justice: every return edge around the window was carefully mitered and filled with color-matched epoxy, creating a seamless, monolithic look that elevates the whole space.

We’re proud of how it turned out and even prouder that we helped realize our client’s vision when others said it couldn’t be done.

📣 We’ve Got Another CTI on the Team!

We’re proud to share that our very own Isaac Adams is now officially a Certified Tile Installer (CTI)—and he passed on his first attempt!

This means that every installer on our team now holds this prestigious certification, a testament to our team's dedication to excellence.

Here’s why this matters:
✅ It provides a reliable means for consumers to vet tile contractors
✅ Only approximately 2,000 CTIs exist nationwide
✅ Our team is now comprised solely CTI-certified installers
✅ It ensures that every project is executed by a proven qualified professional

This isn’t just another line on a resumé. CTI is a nationally recognized, hands-on certification that sets a true craftsman apart from the crowd. It is the highest distinction in our industry, and we are currently the only CTI certified company in the residential sector of the Greater Houston Area.

If you care about tile that stand the test of time and exude beauty, a CTI certified installer is the gold standard🏅

Congratulations, Isaac! Your tireless pursuit of excellence has earned you a well-deserved spot among the industry's best. We're honored to have you representing our team.

Special thanks to Ceramic Tile Education Foundation - CTEF for allowing us installers a platform to showcase our dedication to our trade, Frank Galvan with ARDEX Americas for facilitating the hands-on testing, and ProSource of Austin for allowing us to utilize their space.

It’s amazing what a pop of color and texture can do to make a space feel uniquely yours! 🌊 These new homeowners chose this striking blue concrete subway tile for their kitchen backsplash.

This backsplash gives a modern twist to a classic design with the blue tones bringing a sense of warmth and personality to the kitchen.🍴

It’s always exciting to see homeowners put their own personality into a space, turning it into something that’s truly theirs!

Sometimes the little details make all the difference. For this kitchen backsplash, our client wanted a subtle herringbone accent behind their range, so we paired a classic subway brick pattern with a herringbone design just above the oven. This beautifully distressed blue-gray tile—wasn’t the typical size for a herringbone, but we were able to work it into place.

Not every tile works for every pattern; herringbone, for instance, requires very specific ratio of dimensions to achieve that pattern. But with some careful adjustment and resourcefulness, we can often adapt tiles slightly outside those specifications to achieve the same impact. It's always nice when a project pushes us to think creatively, and this one came together beautifully!

Here's a preview into a recent bathroom remodel, where we reimagined every detail to create a space almost unrecognizable from what it once was. This project was a complete overhaul, transforming the room into this client's dream bathroom.

We began by replacing an old shower wall with clear glass, opening up the room and showcasing the vibrant tiles that now define the room. The shower itself was converted into a curbless, zero-degree entry, making it both stylish and accessible.

In place of the garden tub, we installed a freestanding tub—perfect for those moments of relaxation. New light fixtures to tie the antique bronze trim together, and new cabinets and countertops to top it all off.

These projects aren't just about looks; they're about creating a space that feels like a retreat and maintains its integrity for years to come.

🏠 Turning a house into a home, one tile at a time! 🖤🤍

We had the pleasure of working with new homeowners who wanted their two showers to match the style of their favorite one. Using classic beveled white subway tiles with sleek black grout, we recreated the design in their other bathrooms.

The result?
A timeless look that flows beautifully throughout their home.

To top it off, we found the perfect match for their master bathroom’s mosaic tile and extended it seamlessly into the closet, replacing the old carpet.

A clean, cohesive space that combines practicality with style and delivers a timeless design.

Not every home project starts with a clear vision. Our recent kitchen makeover is a perfect example. The homeowner had ideas but needed guidance to bring them to life. Together, we explored options, shared ideas, and she chose an off-white, handmade-look porcelain backsplash with those charming, uneven edges. 🏡

Her feedback says it best:

"I was very nervous selecting someone to handle the job as I tend to be a perfectionist and can be critical. It’s hard to know who to choose. I am so glad I trusted Chris and his team! They were very professional and attentive. I am beyond thrilled with the final product and look forward to working with them in the future."

Helping our clients feel confident and excited about their choices is what we love doing. Seeing her love the final result. That’s the best part.

We used stacked stone to give this fireplace a natural, textured look, with a quartz hearth that was templated and cut right on-site for a perfect fit. A floating mantle brings it all together, creating a space that feels both solid and inviting.

This is the kind of work we take pride in—focused, detailed, and made to last.

After remodeling her kitchen a decade ago, this homeowner immediately knew the backsplash wasn’t quite right. But instead of rushing to fix it, she committed to living with it for ten years. Finally, the time came to upgrade, and she couldn’t have been more excited!

This marble backsplash features brick-look subway tiles, and a stunning mosaic accent piece framed with a marble pencil liner. We worked closely with her to ensure the design above the stove was perfectly symmetrical and thoughtfully crafted.

Seeing her joy as it all came together was the highlight of the process. It's a reminder why we do what we do: helping clients turn long-held dreams into reality.

Three bathrooms, three new showers!
🛁🛁🚿

We recently had the pleasure of updating three bathrooms, each one originally a tub-shower combo. Two of them stayed as tub-shower combos, now refreshed with new bathtubs, updated tile, and sleek shower doors. The third, however, was completely transformed into a beautiful walk-in shower. 🚿✨

To make the most of the space, we installed sliding glass doors and added a touch of elegance with champagne bronze hardware. ✨ It was a collaborative effort with our client to bring their vision to life and realize their dream space. We couldn’t be more pleased with the results! 😊

Construction is messy work!

Which is why we prioritize not just quality craftsmanship, but also the care and respect your home deserves during every step of the remodeling process. When we're on a project, we understand that we're guests in someone's home.

Our team meticulously follows dust mitigation protocols by setting up zipper doors, plastic covers for vents, and utilizing all the dust containment measures we can to ensure your living space remains as clean as possible.

Watch as we take down the old to make way for something beautiful and new, all while keeping this home tidy and dust-free.

It’s not just about the end result—it’s also about the journey along the way.
