Seen at full size — never from a chip.

Our porcelain comes in sheets up to 63 × 126 inches — taller than you are. We stand them upright on the racks so you can walk the whole face: where the veining runs, where the grey pools, how it reads in your light. A four-inch chip cannot tell you any of that.

Left24 × 24 — a classic square field.

Even, calm, symmetric — more joints, so the grid itself becomes part of the design. The traditional read for a shower wall.

Right24 × 48 — the large-format read.

Half the grout lines, longer runs of unbroken veining — the wall reads closer to stone. Where showers in Naples are heading.

Four kinds of surface, one easy choice.

Panels, wood-look, handmade zellige, real stone — we stock the families a Naples home actually asks for, and we'll tell you which one belongs in which room.

Sheets up to 63 × 126 inches, so a shower or feature wall can run with almost no joint at all. It reads as one continuous piece of stone, never needs sealing, and shrugs off wine and lemon.

§ HOW WE WORK

One project,
one project manager.

§ 01

Your first visit is with your project manager

Not a rotating salesperson. The same person who walks the room is the person who specifies the materials and coordinates the install.

§ 02

One phone number for the entire project

Questions, change-orders, schedule shifts, warranty calls — all go to the same person. No transferring, no re-explaining.

§ 03

Same person at the warranty visit

Year-one walk-through, year-three touch-up, year-five callback — your PM is still your PM. Continuity is the product.

A finished Naples walk-in shower — glass enclosure over a low tiled curb, on a terrazzo floor, waterproofed and flood-tested before a single tile was set
Waterproofing rigor · 5 steps, Schluter-prescribed

Why your shower does not fail in year seven.

A Naples shower that was not waterproofed right will fail in seven to ten years — we rip out two a month. So we build a five-step system from the vapor barrier up, and we do not set a single tile until it passes a flood test. The five steps, in the order they actually go in:

  1. 01

    Vapor barrier

    The seal against the slab

    We build from the vapor barrier up — the slab and wet walls get sealed against Naples humidity before a layer of mortar goes down. No tile lands on a slab we have not moisture-tested first.

  2. 02

    Ditra / Kerdi membrane

    The waterproof skin

    A Schluter Ditra uncoupling membrane on the floor, Kerdi on the wet walls. It is the waterproof skin the whole shower lives or dies by — bonded continuously, not patched.

  3. 03

    Pre-formed corners

    Where leaks start

    The inside and outside corners — where a shower actually leaks — get pre-formed Kerdi pieces, not a folded-and-hoped membrane. Corners and curb get the same continuous waterproofing as the flats.

  4. 04

    Sealed seams + drain

    Continuous, no gaps

    Every membrane seam is overlapped and sealed with Kerdi band; the linear drain is bonded into the membrane and pitched correctly to the weep — pitched to the water, not just to code.

05The flood test

We plug the drain, fill the pan, and leave it full of water for 24 hours — before a single tile goes on.

If the level drops, something is not sealed, and we find it now — while it is a membrane fix and not a demolition. The shower gets a written pass on the scope before any tile is set. This is the step most installers skip and the reason the showers we rip out leaked.

Porcelain or real marble — which belongs where.

We sell both, so we will tell you the truth: porcelain gives you the marble look with zero upkeep; real marble gives you the real thing, with a little care. The choice is not which is better — it is which room you are standing in.

Porcelain≈60% of our Naples kitchens

Floors · kitchens · rentals · resale

Where the surface has to live — take spills, traffic, and a wine glass — without being babied. For resale-focused homes and rentals, large-format porcelain has won the calculation outright.

Real marble≈40% of our Naples kitchens

The hero bath · a fireplace surround

The one room you want to read as the genuine article. Real marble still looks different in person — and in a low-traffic primary bath, the little care it asks for is worth it.

White grout in a Naples kitchen becomes grey-brown grout in five years.

Grout color is a decade-long commitment, and near the Gulf cementitious grout chalks and discolors faster. So we steer you toward a warm-taupe or concrete grout that ages gracefully instead of a bright white that will not — and for high-traffic kitchens we recommend epoxy grout up front: it costs more to install and holds its color for a decade.

Bigger tile, fewer joints.

The same face reads completely differently depending on the format, and neither answer is the right one everywhere. We'll help you pick by the room — which usually means small format where the floor gets wet, large format where you want it calm.

Both frames below are the same porcelain face, photographed once. The grout joints are drawn over it to scale in CSS so you are comparing the two layouts and nothing else.

12″ × 24″Field tile · more joints
More grout lines means more grip underfoot — the safer floor for a wet shower or a pool bath, and the only way to lay a herringbone or a pattern.The trade: More joints to keep clean, and the grid itself becomes part of the design whether you wanted it to or not.

Almost no joint to read across a room, so a great-room floor or a feature wall runs calm and continuous and the stone is what you see.The trade: Less grip when wet, a heavier panel that needs a flatter substrate, and a measured step up in what it costs to install.

The details

The details, for when you want them.

How we waterproof, what large-format panels actually change, and what twenty-eight years in Naples taught us about a tile-set that lasts. Skim what's useful — the showroom is the easy way to get the rest.

WaterproofingSchluter-prescribed baseline
  • Schluter Kerdi membrane on every shower wall + floor seam.
  • 24-hour flood test before tile — written pass/fail on the scope.
  • Linear drains pitched correctly, not just to code.
  • Backer-board or Schluter Ditra on floors; sealer refresh on request.

A Naples shower that wasn't waterproofed right fails in 7–10 years. Ours are tested before a single tile goes on.

Large-format panels63 × 126 · Italy

Porcelain sheets at 63×126 remove the visual noise of tile joints on shower walls and feature kitchen walls. We cut them on a diamond bridge saw in our shop, book-match adjacent sheets, and install with a four-person lift crew.

Available in marble, travertine, and concrete looks. A measured step up from standard tile in cost — and it removes the joints entirely.

A 60×120cm panel reads light and weighs a great deal. On condo decks above grade we pre-check subfloor load before we spec it.

We install roughly 60% porcelain, 40% natural stone in Naples kitchens. For resale-focused properties and rentals, large-format porcelain has won the calculation. For the hero bathroom, real marble still reads differently in person.

01

Grout aging in salt-air.

Cementitious grout chalks and discolors faster near the Gulf. We seal at install; for high-traffic kitchens we recommend epoxy grout up front — costs more, holds color for a decade.

02

Slab moisture on wet-room installs.

Showers and laundry rooms on slab get a Schluter Ditra or Kerdi membrane after a 72-hour calcium-chloride test. No tile lands on a slab we haven't measured.

03

Condo acoustic underlayment.

Tile-over-concrete in multi-level buildings needs a 72 IIC-compliant system to satisfy most Naples HOA specs. We pull your building's sheet before we order.

Built for the Florida slab

Every tile-set we install is engineered for Naples humidity — not a showroom in the Pacific Northwest.

Salt air, slab moisture, condo acoustic specs. CTEF-certified installers, and a flood test on every shower before a single tile goes on.

Honest answers.

  • Do you do the substrate work?

    Always. Backer board or Schluter Ditra, waterproofing on wet walls and floors, flood-test on showers before we set a single tile. Tile is only as good as what's under it.

  • How long does a shower take?

    Demo → rebuild → tile → grout → seal: typically 10–14 working days for a standard walk-in. Large custom showers with niches, benches, and linear drains run 3 weeks. We stage neighboring baths so you're never without.

  • Can we mix tile and hardwood in the same room?

    Yes — common in kitchens with dining areas. We use a metal or wood threshold transition; we don't force a patterned break. Planning both in the same review lets us pick tones that read as one palette.

  • What about grout color — is white worth it?

    White grout in a Naples kitchen becomes grey-brown grout inside five years. We steer clients toward warm-taupe or 'concrete' grout that ages gracefully. Epoxy grout is an option for kitchens — less maintenance, more expensive to install.

  • Is large-format porcelain worth the upcharge?

    For the right room, absolutely. A full-height porcelain panel removes the grout lines from a shower wall — it reads almost like real stone. It is a measured step up from standard tile in cost, and it takes the visual noise of 12×24 joints out of the room entirely.

  • Can you match the tile to our existing wood floor?

    Tone-match yes, exact match no. We do this all the time — warm-oak floor paired with bone-porcelain backsplash, or cooler oak with a grey-taupe grout. The trick is reviewing the sample under your kitchen's actual light.
