Water Damage Bathroom Rebuild with Custom Tile Shower

Water damage doesn't just ruin the surface - it gets into the walls, the subfloor, the plumbing. Everything has to come out. That's exactly where we started on this one. Bare concrete floors, exposed framing, plumbing rough-in waiting to be relocated. A complete gut job.

Once the damage was cleared and the new plumbing was roughed in where it needed to be, we got to work on the layout. The homeowners wanted a full bathroom remodel that would actually hold up long-term - not just a patch job. So we built it right from the ground up.

The custom tile shower was a big piece of this. We used large-format white hexagon tile floor to ceiling, which keeps the space feeling clean and open. The shower floor is a dark mosaic tile with a matte black center drain - a sharp contrast that grounds the whole design. We also built in a recessed niche with a brushed gold trim insert. That detail alone pulls everything together.

For the bathroom floor, we laid large polished gray porcelain tiles with natural stone veining. It flows right out of the shower space and makes the whole room feel cohesive - not like two different design decisions fighting each other.

When water damage forces a rebuild, it's actually an opportunity. You're already starting from scratch, so you might as well end up with something better than what was there before. That's what we helped these homeowners do - handle the damage and come out the other side with a bathroom worth showing off.
