Shower Walls and Surrounds

Stone, quartz and porcelain slab shower walls and curbs with few joints and easy cleaning.

Slab shower walls bring the look of stone to the bathroom with far fewer grout lines than tile. Large panels of quartz, porcelain or natural stone make cleaning simpler and give the shower a spa feel. They also take careful planning, because water management matters more than looks: the waterproofing system, the slope of the floor and the sealing of the joints decide whether the shower works for decades. Homeowners in Nashville ask us for slab showers that look good and perform well.

We coordinate the shower design with your plumber, tile setter and waterproofing system. We measure the shower, plan the panel layout and map the pattern on the slab. We fabricate the panels, cut openings for valves, shower heads and niches and polish the edges. Panels are installed on a properly waterproofed wall, with the right adhesives and sealants. We also fabricate curbs, benches, window sills and niches in matching material. We explain the care needed for the material you choose.

Waterproofing comes first

A shower wall is only as good as the waterproofing behind it, so we work with the system your builder or tile setter uses.

Panel layout

Fewer seams means fewer places for water to enter, and we place seams where they are least visible and best sealed.

Openings and accessories

Valves, shower heads, niches and benches need precise cutouts, and we coordinate with the plumber.

Material choices

Quartz, porcelain and some stones suit showers, and natural stones need sealing. We choose the material with water use in mind.
