Shower Tile Installation
Shower tile installation in Katy, with precise layouts and real waterproofing.
Cracked grout and loose tile in a shower are warning signs, not cosmetic flaws. Water is finding the wall behind them. GM Tile Designs installs shower tile across Katy and The Woodlands, and we rebuild the waterproofing in the same pass, not just the surface. Tile is the craft our family has built its name on. You get precise layouts, clean grout lines, a written estimate, and skilled craftsmen on site for the job.
What's Included
Waterproofing, not just tile
We build a continuous waterproof system and slope the pan to the drain, so the new tile sits over a barrier that keeps water out of the wall.
Precise, planned layouts
We snap layout lines and plan the cuts first, so courses run level, corners line up, and the pattern stays straight floor to ceiling.
Clean, even grout lines
Tight, consistent joints and sealed corners, finished to shed water and hold up to daily use.
Decades of experience on every job
The crew that measures your shower sets the tile and grouts it, with decades of tile experience and a written estimate up front.
Why shower tile fails, and how we fix it for good
When grout cracks or a tile comes loose, the real problem usually sits behind the wall. A shower that was never waterproofed lets water seep past the tile, soak the backer, and rot the framing. New tile over a bad base just hides the leak for another year. We do it the other way. We tear out the old surface, build a proper waterproof system, slope the pan to the drain, and seal the corners before any tile goes back up.
Then comes the layout. We snap lines so the courses run level and the cuts land where the eye expects them, and we keep the grout joints tight and even from floor to ceiling. The result is a shower that looks right and stays watertight. When the project goes beyond the shower, our custom tile shower and tub-surround tile work cover the rest of the bath.
A family-owned company across Katy and The Woodlands
We start with a walk-through and a written estimate, so you know the scope and price before we order any tile. Our crew handles demolition, waterproofing, setting, and grout, and the same Gutierrez who quoted the job stands behind it. Uriel Gutierrez and his brothers Uzziel and Ulises Jr. are taking on more of a leadership role, backed by their father Ulises's decades on the tools.
We carry insurance on every job, and custom home builders keep us on as a recurring trade partner for their showers. We work out of Magnolia and install shower tile across Katy, The Woodlands, Cypress, and the wider area we cover in Harris County and Montgomery County. Homeowners call us because the work holds up, not because we were the cheapest bid.
