Custom Tile and Stone Installation

Tile and stone tailored to the material, pattern, and finish selected for each project, from kitchen backsplashes and feature walls to custom stone surfaces.

The work

What Custom Tile and Stone Involves

Custom tile and stone installation is tile and stone work planned around a specific space and a specific material, rather than set to a standard layout. The material, the pattern, and the finish details are all chosen for the project, and the layout is planned so the result reads as intentional.

It is appropriate for homeowners and designers planning a kitchen, bath, or feature space who want tile or stone chosen and laid out for that room. The work suits both full feature walls and smaller details like a backsplash or an accent surface.

Why people choose it

Common Reasons for Custom Tile and Stone

Most custom tile and stone projects start from one of these situations.

  • A kitchen backsplash

    A full-height or standard backsplash planned around the counter, the range, and the outlets.

  • A feature wall

    A single tiled or slab wall used as an accent or backdrop in an entry, living space, or bath.

  • A custom stone surface

    Stone work for a vanity, hearth, or accent, tailored to the material and the finish.

  • A pattern layout

    Herringbone, chevron, or another pattern, set so the repeat lands where it should.

  • A material-specific finish

    Tile or stone chosen for the room and laid out for that material, not a generic grid.

  • Clean edge and trim details

    Exposed edges and transitions finished with trim or profiles so the work reads as complete.

The options

Materials and Patterns to Choose From

A custom project can draw on a range of materials and patterns. Here is what is available to plan around.

  1. Porcelain and ceramic tile

    Durable, versatile tile used across floors, walls, and backsplashes in a wide range of sizes and finishes.

  2. Natural stone

    Marble, travertine, limestone, and other natural stone, each with its own veining, color, and handling needs.

  3. Large-format slabs

    Oversized porcelain or stone panels for continuous surfaces with minimal grout lines.

  4. Mosaic and glass tile

    Small-format mosaics and glass tile used for accents, borders, and detailed feature areas.

  5. Pattern layouts

    Herringbone, chevron, basketweave, and other patterns, set so the repeat lands where it should.

  6. Trim and profiles

    Edge trim, pencil liners, and metal profiles that finish exposed edges and transitions cleanly.

We work with the material you have chosen and plan the layout and finish for it. Talk through your selection during the consultation.
