Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take?
Because every shower is unique there is no set time for anything to take. The time spent on preperation will almost always be greater than the time spent tiling. For a standard tub replacement figure on 5 business days. Don't be surprised if it is done in 3 and don't be alarmed if it takes over 10.
Are you licensed/insured?
In Indiana there is no licensing for tile contracting. For insurance I carry 3 million in general liability and another 3 million on commercial auto insurance.
I have a very small bathroom. can I have a shower installed?
if there is a shower or tub there now we can help. if there is no plumbing for either tub or shower I recommend you contact a licensed plumber such as

How much does it cost?
For budgeting proposes the value per square foot is a great target. Zillow includes price per square foot in most listings. Use the length and width of your bathroom to figure out the square feet and multiply by the listed per foot price. There are many ways to figure out the amount you can or should spend, but this is how i look at it. the price per square foot that Zillow gives is spot on. But is the spare bedroom worth the same as the master bath? A 12x14 bedroom is $16,800 the average master bath is worth 12,000? 25% of the listed per foot price goes to hallways and such spaces, the remain 75% goes ionto a pot. Then, 50% bedrooms & 75% living/great room the rest goes into the pot. Pot splits 60-40 bathrooms-kitchen. You have more bathrooms, they get more money. Now you have guideline for the budget that will never take you out of the value of your home.
