Waterproofing Comes Before Tile
Tile is not the waterproofing system by itself. Shower walls, pans, corners, niches, benches, and penetrations must be prepared correctly before tile installation.
Plan Drain and Slope
Water should move toward the drain without pooling. Drain location, floor slope, tile size, and threshold details all affect daily performance.
Design the Niche Early
A shower niche should align with tile layout, wall structure, and daily use. Planning it late can create awkward cuts or weak placement.
Finish With Clean Edges
Grout lines, trim, corners, glass door placement, and caulking make the shower look professional and easier to maintain.
Best Information to Send First
Send the property location, project photos, room measurements, building type, target timeline, budget range, and any condo, co-op, landlord, or commercial building rules. The clearer the details, the easier it is to discuss realistic next steps.

No. A proper waterproofing system should be installed behind or under the tile layer.
What tile is best for shower floors?
Smaller tiles are often used because they can follow slope better and provide more grout-line grip.
