Wall Tile and Accent Walls

Wall tile and accent walls in subway, stacked, patterned and handmade tiles, laid out around niches, windows and fixtures for a focal point that makes the whole bathroom stand out.

A tile wall can turn a plain bathroom into a feature. A pattern behind the vanity, a tall stack of tile in the shower or a bold color on one wall draws the eye and sets the style. Homeowners in Nashville use wall tile to add character without changing the size of the room.

We choose the tile, the pattern and the grout with you, then plan the layout around windows, niches, outlets and fixtures. Walls are prepared so they are flat, since a bumpy wall shows in a straight tile. We set the tile from a level line, keep the pattern balanced, and finish edges with trim, bullnose or metal profiles. We also advise on the height of the tile, from a short wainscot to full-height walls. Accent walls look best when they have a reason to be where they are. We choose the wall that you see when you walk in, or the one behind the vanity or tub, and we plan the pattern to fit the wall's real dimensions. A well-placed accent can anchor the design without overwhelming the room.

Choose a look

Tile shape, color, finish and pattern set the mood, and we show samples in the room's light.

Plan around features

Windows, niches, outlets and fixtures are planned for so cuts look intentional.

Prepare flat walls

A flat wall helps tile lines look straight and keeps larger tiles from lippage.

Finish the edges

Trim pieces and bullnose tile give a clean look where the tile stops.
