Shower Floor Tile & Grout
What survives bare feet, shampoo and twenty years of mornings.
These are the six floor systems we install across Farmington, with honest notes on grip, cleaning and cost. The tile matters less than the assembly beneath it — but the right tile on the right slope with the right grout is a floor you never think about again, which is the entire point.
- Porcelain 2x2 mosaic — the workhorse: grippy, cheap, slope-perfect.
- Penny rounds — vintage charm, endless grout grip, moderate upkeep.
- Pebble sheets — spa texture; needs expert grout packing (that's us).
- Small-format porcelain — modern rectangles that still turn the slope.
- Textured stone-look — single-tile elegance with rated slip resistance.
- Epoxy grout — the non-negotiable: stain-proof, waterproof joints.

Farmington notes
The Farmington pattern: a 1980s fiberglass shower pan gone dull and flexy next to dated brass trim. Shower-floor and pan re-tiles outnumber full redos here, and buyers notice new shower floors first. Our default Farmington floor: porcelain 2x2 in a mid-tone gray with epoxy grout — grippy, forgiving, and still handsome in a decade. Farmington sellers refresh the shower floor and re-grout the walls before listing — it reads as a renovated bath in photos for a fifth of the price.
Common questions
Yes with caveats: honed (not polished), sealed, and maintained. Beautiful underfoot, needier than porcelain. We'll quote both honestly.
Epoxy: best performance, pro-only install. Urethane: pre-mixed, stain-proof, easier. Cement: fine for walls, outclassed on floors. Floors get epoxy or urethane here.
Yes — we'll verify slip rating, size suitability and quantity. Labor warranty stands; material warranty stays with your supplier.
Glazed porcelain 2x2 in a mid-tone: grippy grout grid, slope-perfect sheets, forgiving color, modest price. Our default recommendation for Farmington floors.
